To go with all the other LEGO ACs we’ve already featured, we now bring to you this super awesome LEGO rendition of the ridiculously overweight poster AC from Silent Line.
Just a few hours ago during Microsoft’s Tokyo Game Show, mecha fans were treated to a teaser for a new Steel Battalion game being developed by From Software, of Armored Core and Demon’s Souls fame, for Capcom. This new Steel Battalion game is set to take advantage of Microsoft’s Kinect technology instead of the 32-button controller that the original was famous for. But of course it’s still too early to tell how exactly the Kinect will be used to simulate piloting a giant robot.
Anyway, enjoy the trailer below and be hyped with the rest of us.
Leave it to the Japanese to squeeze out just a bit more from our favorite ancient games. In the same vein as the Sailor Moon vid posted some time ago, we’ve again come across some cool AC1 hacks, this time by YouTube user aniski.
Check them out after the jump.
As the title implies, this post is quite the change of pace from all the mecha stuff we’ve posted these past few months. You see, Doom Trigger over at the forums just announced that he and AEA1 will be hosting a Super Street Fighter 4 tournament with actual money at stake! That’s an RR first.
More details below.
David Ball, or Moodydave/Moodydata as he’d like to be known in the internet, has been continuing the development of his one-man effort called Armored Core: Limit Release.
In his 42nd update on moddb, he shares how this pet project of his has gone on for far longer than he expected but that he looks at what he learns from the work rather than how much still needs to be done. What is unclear until now though is whether the project will simply be an OVA or a fully playable mod. But with his mindset, we can only expect good developments either way.
And to cap things off, Dave has treated us to an all new teaser. He even managed to get a few voice actors. Do check it out below.
Here’s a collection of scanned images from the AC Chronicle Artworks included in the JPN edition of Armored Core Last Raven Portable released earlier this month. The artbook contains stills and scenes from various Armored Core intros, as well as the concept designs for Armored Core 5, and an interview with series director Toshifumi Nabeshima. Hit the jump for the gallery.
Over at the forums, R.Leonhardt just shared with us two fantastic stop-motion videos of his collection in action.
One more vid after the cut:
Grim’s Edit: Amends have been made. Issue has ended.
NiX’s Edit: Cleaned up for good measure. If you saw what was here before, all you need to know is that it’s over. If you didn’t, well it’s probably better that way.
Anyway, you can still sort of catch up by hitting the comments.
