a great and smooth robot arena combat from the ps2 days. also came with a great soundtrack option from real bands. and now i am filling out more words because I was to concise.
The game that introduced me to the mech genre. Ever since playing this game I’ve been left with an insatiable thirst for more mech games. Very fluid and fast paced gameplay for its time.
This was one of my top 5 Ps2 games i've ever owned. It's gotten me through rough periods of my life when i was younger and this game sparked so much inspiration from me. I was sad to hear that Konami unplugged the multi-player servers i was really bummed, but hearing a possible chance to connect with other people with this game sounds like a dream i thought would have never been true if you asked me when i was 12 years old.
In a world where reboots are drowning us all, the best games are simply forgotten.
As with many ps2 games, they really did a lot of special things with this one. The mechanics are different, the story is unique and deep, the world created is immersive and fun!
So many have tried to make a mech game that works/sells, and this was their example all along. Oh, to see a modern version in UE5!
I'm just happy to know about this game. I saw a poster of it on the wall of a lan house / game store and some time after I wanted to play it, the poster was not there anymore, but the store owner still remembered the poster and the game. Hidden gem.
That's probably my first mecha game ever (or my first mecha in PS2), I wish get this on PC.
I loved spending hours and hours playing it alone against the AI (thinking they were people, I was a kid haha), I would love to relive those moments.
SLAI is a masterpiece which deserves to be preserved, and needs to be brought back for a sequel. Konami once again does not fully utilize their intellectual property
I had fond memories of this game although I havent finished it. Wish it comes to PC so we can all enjoy it to the fullest! SLAI was my childhood dream come true aside from GTA SA. BRING THIS TO PC!
This is my childhood game for life. Even got to know my favorite band as well from this game, which is Zebrahead. Maybe for some this doesn't tantamount to famous titles back in the day, but for me this game has a special place in my heart, and will always be.
NHL 1512 PLAYER NHL COLLISION PHYSICS
For the first time in any sports game, real-world physics affects every player through every on-ice collision with the new 12 Player NHL Collision Physics. Utilizing the power of the next generation consoles, and building off the critically-acclaimed NHL Collision Physics system, every player on the ice is governed by physics at all times. Feel the hard-hitting chaos of NHL hockey through true-to-life secondary collisions, net scrambles and player pileups, capturing the desperation of every shift.
REAL PUCK PHYSICS
The puck is one of the most complex items in the game to authentically replicate and it finally gets its due in NHL 15. Completely rebuilt puck physics result in a more realistic feel to every puck interaction. Everything on the ice, including the ice surface itself, is live which leads to the unpredictable and authentic puck spins, rolls and bounces seen in a real NHL game.
AUTHENTIC PLAYER & EQUIPMENT MODELS
The Next Generation Hockey Player has been rebuilt from the ice up. Now player models have three distinct layers - the body, equipment, and jersey. Each layer interacts independently, making every contact with the puck or other players even more realistic. Dynamic Cloth technology adds an extra layer of realism as it reacts to the player’s movement as they explode up the ice, helping bring the speed of the game to life.
UNPRECEDENTED PLAYER LIKENESS
Powered by the same technology that brought the most realistic representation of the athlete to EA SPORTS UFC, NHL 15 delivers groundbreaking player likeness, emotion and animation. From the strides a player takes to get up the ice to the emotion on their face after scoring a game winning goal, the players are as real as they’ve ever been.
SUPERSTAR SKILL STICK
Now all the tools of an NHL superstar are in your hands. The revolutionary Skill Stick has evolved to give even more control to the player. Protect the puck, receive passes without breaking stride, and discover an arsenal of sweet new dekes, all with an intuitive right stick control scheme that is easy to use but packed with depth.
AUTHENTIC ARENAS
There is no feeling like being there, and we are giving you the best seats in the house. The power of the next-gen consoles finally allows the NHL franchise to capture every detail of an NHL arena. Unique arena elements from 19,000+ seat capacities to lighting and player entrance tunnels are captured with a level of detail not possible on the previous generation. Now those home games will truly feel like home.
NEW COMMENTARY TEAM
New voices for a new generation. NHL 15 welcomes the NBC Sports commentary team of Mike 'Doc' Emrick and Eddie Olczyk to the broadcast booth. TSN analyst Ray Ferraro will provide game insights at ice level. Combined with Real Life Broadcast Integration that will feature real-world pre-game video commentary with Doc and Eddie set against in-game visuals, NHL 15 takes a revolutionary step forward in sports videogames; where the lines between the real world of sport broadcast and the game are blurred.
NBC SPORTS GAME DAY PRESENTATION
The most realistic broadcast package in a video game to-date is possible because of a new partnership with NBC Sports. Set the scene with the NHL on NBC crew welcoming you to the city during the game intros and immerse yourself in an experience that matches what you see on television with NHL on NBC graphics and branding.
LIVING CROWDS
NHL 15 sets a new standard in videogames with over 9,000 individual crowd models with 4x the animations of previous generations. Take a look through the glass and you’ll see fans hold up signs with your name on them, costume wearing superfans, or even sections full of team rivals rooting against you. Feel their behavior change after dropping the gloves, landing a big hit, or scoring a clutch goal. The crowd is alive.
VISION AI
An elevated level of player intelligence, Vision AI features evolved awareness with players reading and reacting to potential plays. Scoring area recognition, pass anticipation, and enhanced team breakouts all improve the flow of the game.Non-fiction
