The magazine notes that Spike Chunsoft's game has a Story Mode in which players can recreate the battles of the main lead Eren and the other humans against the Titan giants.


So you get to do cool aerial aerobatics only to get slapped out of the sky by the aberrant you didn't see? Or perhaps it will simulate pants wetting as everyone you know and love is eaten in front of you?




But seriously, if this game does replicate the excitement of 3D maneuver gear in 3D. Its gonna be EPIC.

The game based on anime\manga for portable console and not a visual novel? Wow, that's incredible!

AoT is a pretty bad series, but the action scenes would probably translate pretty well into an action game. Oh, how I wish the 3DS wasn't region locked, as this could be fun...

Story mode: Guessing the player will choose to play from the main characters point of view. More characters will be unlock after you complete Eren and Mikasa route.

Now, let see what will the modding community will do when Titanfall come out next year. Their game mechanics is somewhat similar to 3D maneuvering gear.

The cheaply made smartphone version lets you cut the Titan's necks in the game.

It never said the cutting of the arms was to kill it. Just to free your friends before they get eaten.

Why do you think the series is bad?

AoT gets almost everything wrong, IMO, from animation to plot to pacing, etc. Plus, all the hype and fans made me think it'd be great, which raised my expectations, but then it failed to meet even normal expectations.

Of course, this is all just my opinion, I'm perfectly fine with people who like the series.

Actually I found the series has been really good. Yeah the pacing is a bit slow, but it was in the manga too since it only came out monthly.

AoT suffers from a lot of filler. It's still good, but I can totally see where it suffers badly from pacing problems.

Fortunately the second half of the season has been a lot better paced then the first half.

Well, at least you can admit your opinion in a coherrant way and don't bash someone else for theirs Very Happy

In response, though, I'd actually say that AoT is one of the best animated shows to come out of Japan in a while. Just from the use of angles and how speedy, yet fluent the action sequences are.

Not only that, but I feel that the pacing helps to appreciate the overall plot more and aids the emotional appeal of the series.

Even if this game came out in English, I'm not going to waste my money on this game.

I never expect pacing to be amazing when a anime comes from a manga, maybe that's just me. AOT does get slow
at sometimes though. But other than that, I think everything was amazing, ESPECIALLY the animation shown by
episode 21.
