 ... game. You also have armour that depletes the more you block, or the more physical damage you take. Having your armour destroyed allows enemies to dish out more damage with each hit, as well as spoiling your paintwork. Also different from the norm is the way the game works in terms of 'Rounds'. There are no rounds as such, and you can simply take your Damage Gauge being filled twice. Basically the game works along the same lines as Rare's Killer Instinct. Controlling the game can quite easily be done on the standard ...more

Tech Romancer is a game that probably lost quite a few potential buyers in PAL regions based solely on it's shoddy front cover over here, which was very yellow and an emphasis was put on the most childish looking robot in the game, giving the impression that this was anything but a Giant Robot fighting game. Something a title like Tech Romancer, which sounds more like a love story about scientists, didn't help. Apparently the game started life in the Arcades, but there are no arcades around me, so I can't say I've ever seen the machine myself. However, as with almost every game Capcom brought out around the life of the Dreamcast, Sega's little white box saw a ...  Read the complete review

Well, I have to give it Capcom this time; they really pulled a rabit out of their hats with Tech Romancer. I am used to Capcom rehashing titles and the new ones that they do come up with sporting the Street Fighter engine. They must of went back to the drawing board with Tech Romancer. The two are nothing alike with the exception of the power meter used for finishing moves in the game, but well get to that later. The gameplay is fun and easy to get into. Not too fast -(like Virtual On)- not too slow. Just right for huge Godzilla sized mechs. There are no complex directional pad movements to perform before pressing a button. Now it is mostly composed of one and ...  Read the complete review

Hey, it's a Capcom game. And it's a fighting game!!!! I'm soooooo shocked. But, suprisingly, it plays absolutely nothing like Street Fighter at all!! Thw world is under attack by a mysterious demon force from space. A number of warriors from earth laucnh their sperate attacks, using highly armed Giant Robot weapons they've created. Will their might be enough to stop the invaders? Yes, this Capcom game has big robots. Big ANIME robots at that, all designed bny Macross guru Shoji Kawamori, and it shows. The design work in the mecha is great, with the cast proving to be highly reminisent of the various robot genres. The cast varies from ...  Read the complete review

This game I got with my Dreamcast. At first I would not play it as I thought I would be wasting my time and that’s what I did then I played a few other games and I was bored. So I thought in the end let’s give it try and I was tooken in bye the game it looks bad until I played it and it was interesting when i started off playing it thinking this is OK. But as I got more into the game it was more interesting and funny u are like a robot u can pick who u what to be and the u choose story mode or hero challenge mode. If u choose story then u go though a story mode and u have to take a robots though or story of saving the world and u meet robots in the ...  Read the complete review

Like Virtual Girlfriends and Bus Simulators, Mech fighting games are popular in Japan. One such game is Capcom's Tech Romancer (originally called Kikaioh). It's the unofficial sequel to an earlier 2D work called Cyberbots. Also it's available at a bargain price despite being an amazing game. First of all, it's not Virtual-On. It plays more like a highly modified Tekken. The mechs can move 8 ways and jump (except Wiseduck, which is too bulky). The fighting is in a league of its' own, based more upon pressing the right button at the right time instead of learning combo's, making it accessible to anyone wanting a 5 minute brawl. The ...  Read the complete review
