IGN Reviews – Armored Core V – Video Review

40 Comments

1. ps2 Graphics !!

2. Anyone who has played any of the earlier games realize that AC5 is a true disaster, nothing at all like AC, AC2, AC silent line, this game is true garbage!

3. Miyazaki new armored core VI for pc.

4. Great analysis!

5. the sound your mech made ruined it for me :/

6. I still have this game.

7. all of the bad things of this game; is the best thing that make out of it. Love the forza ref.

8. is this game worth it if i only want to play singleplayer?

9. No servers online for AC V :(! Any server online for others? xD

10. I got all the armored core games and I love all of them there so much fun to play

11. I just got this game today

12. Last Raven and For Answer are better than this.

13. Video content warning of salty people…

14. i would try armor core uf it werent for that camera. i like 3rd person, but not like this. 🙁

15. the first line pisses me off. armored core has been at the top of its gsme every release. they all bring something new and they are all fantastic

16. why is there a content warning?

17. Been a while since a great mech game? Did you forget Transformers?..

18. Ac5 was so disapointing…. seriously who thught that no more flying would be cool? this game was horrible. I played 5 hours of it hoping that it would get better after a certain point. I had armored core serie tatooed on my heart, now i'm not even interested in the next game anymore. I was mad that ac 4 removed the shields and most of the nicest shoulder weapons…. now they removed the core of armored core… I was really impressed on how bad my interest in the next armored game decreased. I really hope there will be an armored core 6 game, but after this massacre i'm pretty shure the franchise will drown and sink at the bottom of the ocean.

19. Anyone want to play on PS3?

20. i'm looking for players since i got it but i dont know if the online system is shut down

21. Heard from 2-3 different sources that the multiplayer servers were shut down… too bad since that seems like a game killer when most of the appeal for a game is its multiplayer.

22. Pfft Im a fan and I hated this game and VD.

23. every review I can find of this seems to be shit, nothing seems to answer any of my questions :/, i want it to be AC4 but improved upon, and it doesn't seem to be that.

24. No matter this is an awful game, I played the Gundam games, Robotech on the GC, Mechwarriors games, Exteel, Front Mission, but Armored Core is the worst mech franchise of them all. I use to have 2 on the PS2 and now I have Verdict Day hoping it would have drastically improved. WRONG!

25. For Answer shit on these midget mechs

26. Trial and error? Accessibility issues? It's a FromSoftware game. What, were you expecting to have your hand held while you jog down a corridor looking at pretty graphics? 

27. "Accessibility issues"

    Sounds like someone needs to git gud.

28. I like fast gameplay and love mechs,
    But should i buy it? And what price is it worth? I'm a solo/co-op not against other player btw

29. I like fast gameplay and love mechs,
    But should i buy it? And what price is it worth? I'm a solo/co-op not against other player btw

30. I'm tired of people whining about the lack of flying in this game. This is supposed to be Armored Core, not Ace Combat!

31. Lol this looks like it would play on my phone! And I agree with other this review is shit to boot

32. This game sucked so bad…
    How did From Software managed to screw an AC game like that?
    I mean how did they tought that taking out free flying would be a good idea?
    And those graphics? What a poor excuse for a game.

33. I just bought this game for like $10… I have been an AC fan since the first game but… I don't get this game. It's been that way since Last Raven. This game is almost too complicated, in that there is too much going on at once and not enough time to deal with it. I dunno maybe I am just getting old

34. wtf is this for ps2?

35. anyone is playing this anymore. Price just drop now. It was 60 bucks last week in Spain.

36. 5 bucks on psn plus

37. this game sucks. they tried to go back to the AC3 style of nexts but the mechs are just too dull , the graphics and missions are also substandard

    AC4 and For Answer were a huge deviation from old school AC but they were far better than this garbage….they made me lose faith in the series 

38. Reminds me more of Mech Warrior, which is a good thing in my eyes. I'll probably get this and For Answer so I get the best of both worlds

39. nothing looks or plays good in this game.

40. its 8 bucks on xbox live right now. Shit why not
