Super Robot Wars Original Generation 2
I guess since I'm a giant robot anime freak, i have to love the SRW series but it's really cool when Branpesto does their own thing with their own bots ^.^
[First Game]
Story - I'd say pretty awesome, though a bit cliche, I still liked the hook on the whole alien invasion thing
Characters - Most of the main cast is memorable, and really likable, and each is given a pretty good backstory
Gameplay - This really comes down to whether or not you like top view strategy games. I mean I could go into detail about the epic fight animations that each mech gets, but I don't know if that will be a deciding factor for you. (The battle animations are the best in any GBA strategy game, imo)
Graphics - there is REALLY cool mech designs in this game (if robots are your thing)but in classic SRW tradition, each mech is Super Deformed (Chibi, if you prefer), but most units have an attack that depicts the mech in it's Non-sd format. But outside of combat the graphics are what you would expect; Little blue icons vs. little red icons, with the occasional third party color thrown in (in this case yellow)
Soundtrack - Amazing, second best GBA soundtrack imo, i dare people to listen to tracks like "Emissary From the Void" or "Dark Prison" and try to tell me that's not epic
AND this game has two separate routes you play on, that have different characters, but half way through the game the routes combine and both have the same story, but just different ways of portraying it
10/10 (idk maybe it's just Nostalgia
[Second Game]
Story - Many different plots that are all pretty unique (Cross Dimensional Terrorists/Ancient Demons/Alien Health Inspectors >.>) but its amazing nonetheless
Characters - Almost the entire cast returns from the first game, but the new characters are awesome and have a surprisingly rich backstory)
Gameplay - Same as the first game, except they added new tricks
Graphics - Well if you played the first game and said "Hey these graphics are the s**t" then you'd just explode after seeing the colorful (and epic) graphics in the in game fight scenes. But as for the grid where you fight, it looks exactly the same ^.^
Soundtrack - Best GBA soundtrack (imo) most songs are actually from previous installments of the SRW series but that doesn't mean this soundtrack isn't, in the least bit, bad. Again I dare people, to listen to "Gate of Magus", "Chaos", "Dark Knight" or "For the Day That Has Yet to Come" and try to tell me that those aren't incredibly epic.
This game got rid of the initial separate route option from the first game but throughout the game there are path options to choose from
10/10 (if this game isn't my favorite game, some various rpg on some other console is, but I've beat this game MANY times and I absolutely love this game series and I highly recommend to any robot fans out their XD )
