Gundam Versus coming west to PS4 this fall (New Trailer)

Y'all worried about soundtracks coming over when you should be rocking Gundam Slam Jams!

It's crazy to me how many popular staple units won't see representation in this game... no Endless Waltz, SEED Destiny (or SEED spinoffs), no 00 past the first season? And then on top of that, no G Gundam, which is pretty popular and has a massive roster of potential units. Then no X or AGE, which are less popular but still could have gotten a token unit or two. No 0080 seems a bit weird as well.

I mean, I'm FINE with that, because with a roster of 90+ it means we can get hella love for the large number of series that are in. It feels like the series list was picked to leave room for massive expansion in the future. In a way, it might be smarter... while it seems counterproductive not to feature as much as possible from the most popular AUs, it means that they can get a lot of representation for their early stuff now and get those later units in a sequel, so that their total representation is very high.

There's still loads of time for the other stuff to get announced before launch. And if there's any indication of room for expansion, all you need to do is look at Maxi Boost ON with its 200+ unit selection. I honestly wouldn't worry about "where is main staple X from X series" units not being there yet.

Pretty excited for this, I'm hoping they announce Grimgerde. It would be a shame to include Kimaris Trooper, but not the best IBO design.
 
Oops! I had no idea that was for DLC lol.
The only thing that's "DLC" is the pre-order bonus Hot

Scramble Gundam. All the roster reveals are out the box so far.

I voted for the Wing Zero cover cause I'm trash.

I've heard these games are quite difficult to play, is that true? Really don't have the time to invest if that's the case.

The hardest part of being new is dealing with the salty anger from your teammate when you inevitably get paired with them and lose multiple times in a row.

It's a neogaf tradition.

Look, Freedom is my second favourite Gundam, but everyone who voted for the Wing Zero/Freedom cover... You're all disappointments.

Wait why? So we could get some over played UC nonsense?

Damn it Bandai Namco add Destiny and the Heine custom and have them on a cover!

Wow, this just might tempt me to re-purchase a PS4. I sold mine early this year after not having touched it since last fall. I'm primarily a PC gamer these days but I have very, very fond memories of Gundam Extreme VS on the PS3 and the countless hours I spent on that game (some of which were spent with fellow Gaf'ers!)

I guess all of the begging, pleading, Facebook posting and email blasting over the years may have just worked in our favor. WTG Bamco!

Heine's Destiny Gundam Revolution is among my favorite Gundams in terms of color scheme.
I don't know if I like it so much as I just love it on Destiny, like it's color scheme would look horrible on most Gundam's yet it totally saves the Meh Destiny and makes the suit look amazing.
 
I went for the freedom/wing zero cover. Since it combo the 2 best.

My other choice was the one with Barbatos, but I'm no fan of the og gundam design.
 
I love Wing and SEED, but I voted cover 2 for that Nu & Unicorn UC goodness. Such amazing designs. I wish there was a cover with Zeta and ZZ Gundam. Those are two of my favorite designs.

But I think we all know the cover will be Wing Zero, and I'm ok with that. Just glad Gundam is coming back to NA. And with Rightstuf doin work with the blu-ray releases, this may be the Gundam renaissance!

And both IBO and Unicorn RE:0096 were on Toonami. It's been great to see this resurgence.

I must apologize to everyone in the thread. I am a trash human being who voted for the Wing Zero/Freedom cover (ugh, I don't like Wing), because Gundam SEED was one of my first three animes (along with Initial D and Full Metal Panic) and SEED is still my favorite Gundam series. I couldn't help it. There's a Strike Freedom model sitting above me on a shelf right now and I could not go against it. I fully accept that I did a terrible thing.

Ugh, Wing.

Yupppp! It's a great time to be a Gundam fan. I need to watch s2 of IBO. I've been so deep in a complete UC Marathon for the past 2 months.

Origin - MSG Trilogy - 08th MS Team - War in the Pocket - Thunderbolt - Stardust Memory - Zeta - ZZ

Gonna watch Char's Counterattack tonight and start Unicorn this weekend.

So good.

You, I like you. I was torn between Unicorn/Nu and Freedom/Zero but ultimately went Freedom/Zero, but I would LOVE a Destiny/Heine Custom Destiny cover.
 
I hope we get Barbatos Lupus and Barbatos Lupus Rex in some form. Some of the coolest gundam in the whole damn franchise.

Also Providence, Perfect strike and Legend better be in too.

Perfect strike will happen no doubt.

Either Legend or Providence but hopefully not both in my eyes.
 
so the only good cover w/o a garbage series is the unicorn and cca cover. I hope that one wins. I definitely didnt expect bamco to send this over to the west based on prior releases. I'll probably pick this one up now then
