Story:Armored Core 3 once again puts you in the shoes of a Raven mercenary, with the task of piloting your own battle machine to use in a range of tasks (from destroying other mechs to seek and destroy missions).
After each missions, you are payed in full. The money raised can then go on towards the purchase of items for your mech. Weapon upgrades, better shields, even the opportunity to purchase what's called an Exceed Orbit, smaller robot gun emplacements that hover around your mech, giving you an added boost of fire power in the crunch.
4 player deathmatch modes are also included, where you each pit your supped-up mechs against each other to see who is the last robot standing.Show more

This was the first Armored core game I owned and I still have the original copy. It was so well balanced as far as Armored Core games go. The difficulty curve is pretty smooth and they options aren't overwhelming for new players. I remember playing this game for a year and S-ranking every single mission.
Gen 3 while not my favorite of the Armored Core games I do appreciate it how it iterated on gen 2 and made things more balanced. Also, getting the Karasawa is easily the hardest it has been in all of the Armored Core games imo which is how it should be. Anyways, would love a way to play this that isn't emulation, and we need to preserve these games for future generations!
One of the best starting point when playing or jumping into Armored Core franchise long before Armored Core 6 released.
But unfortunately people always got frustated with its control. Because for some reason, Fromsoftware still use control scheme that they use in King's Field 1 on PS1. Armored Core 3 on PS2 released without adding modern control or fully utilized dual analog. Until they released Armored Core Nexus when they have dual analog support control support.
Controller issue aside, 3 have best atmosphere & vibe. From its visual, themes, music & the gameplay. Everything have feel of weight. Its hard to explain but there's something unique about 3 & improved expansion Silent Line that can hook people in. The gameplay are nice balance of mecha simulator & arcadey shooting style kinda like Ace Combat. Its have nice balance of being piloting a mech & not being going too far into goes fast-faced robot like Gundam.
And I can see why from all of the Armored Core series from this dreamlist. 3 is the top & number one. They need bring back this one of peak Armored Core series to modern & new audience. With adding new dual analog control scheme like in Armored Core Nexus & bring all the additional contents from 3 Portable & Silent Line Portable. 3 & Silent Line rereleased would be make all AC fans cry of happiness.
This was the first Armored Core game I played, specifically the PSP version. Differences between the PS2 and PSP versions aside, I enjoyed my time with Armored Core's Layered Timeline/Generation and I want to see this be preserved properly or even updated with better graphics and optimization (maybe make the PSP-exclusive parts available again like the CHD-GLITCH head, and make OP-INTENSIFY actually like the OG Gen's/Timeline's Human-PLUS bonuses).
Plus, the overall vibe Gen3 had, especially the first game, honestly was the best. Really love tracks like Artificial Sky and On Satelloid while traversing through this massive Layered dystopia in my 12-meter tall mecha.
When I first played Armored Core 3, it was several years after playing 2 and the OG. The story is much more refined, and more of a reboot of the OG, but with the graphics and style of the AC2 games. All in all, the core parts list is great, the gameplay is amazing, and I think more people should play it.

Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.Top Action Fantasy Comedy Sandbox
