Armored Core 4, the 12th installment of the Armored Core series. Although the series doesn't fuse together into one large story, they seperate, which is not too great. The story mode is quite short, and a tad bit too easy on normal mode. The game is really fun though, and the men and women that worked on this game definetely refined the gameplay and the way you played the game. It has gotten so fast, that the game is going a lot of frames per second. It has some intense fights, that for some reason never slows down for frame rate, which is amazing. Armored Core's missions are quite short too, each one about 1-5 minutes. But the mission can handle some crazy fights too. This is the first game where they added an online play, which is not too great, but very fun. One thing that some people are very angry about, is that if you want to change your mech, you have to exit xbox live, go into the menu screen, load up your saved data, go into the garage, load up that mech, change it, exit out, save, exit, and go into xbox live...again. So you can see why people get quite angry at it, but it's still fun, it's still a great game. And if you were an Armored Core fan, or a person who loves mech games, I would definetely recommend you buying, or at least renting the game to see if you love it
