  • This review is the best fucking ever!

  • Comment removed

  • Worse story? Maybe your childhood is worse than it. Custom Robo Arena is meant to be a child game, nothing like Halo, or Metal Gear Solid.

  • The story is SUPPOSED to be generic like that because they know it has orgasmic gameplay. I wish they would release a HD version for the xbox and ps3

  • @1zacster It's made by Nintendo, Idk if they'd go for that

  • I hope your ass burns in hell for dissing this game and also what do you want from the plot it's a fucking kids game douche. PS troll troll troll troll troll troll troll troll troll troll troll troll troll troll troll troll troll troll troll troll troll

  • honestly the review is like the worst ..and the story is pretty cool .thumps up if u agree

  • you said frame rate are you using an emulator? then how ar you going online?

  • you said frame rate are you using an emulator? then how do you go online?

  • 0:40 WRONG!!!

    The custom robo storys are AWSOME

  • 0:18 WRONG!!!

  • Fuck you, and the story from the fourth one was pretty good, not completely terrible, but I looked forward to finishing it and learning more about the story.

  • You're... Opinionated...

  • "ooo, u try to be the best, oughh OUKEmON

  • This is his opinion, buy it and make yours.

  • Everyone that has this game and has wifi for ds PLEASE battle me, more information is on my channel

  • WHOAH WHOAH WHOAH, YOU THINK THE GC VERSION'S STORY WAS TERRIBLE?! The story's the MAIN reason I'm playing it right now as I speak. >:/ The characters are hilarious, and I just love the plots that occur. :3

    I've never played the DS version, by the way. :3 I wish there would be a 3DS version, I wanna battle with some people online!!! I love Custom Robo!!!

  • WHOAH WHOAH WHOAH, YOU THINK THE GC VERSION'S STORY WAS TERRIBLE?! The story's the MAIN reason I'm playing it right now as I speak. >:/  The characters are hilarious, and I just love the plots that occur. :3

  • I had no idea what this game was before today when I bought it from Gamestop for $5.

  • >story is generic, horrible, and plain old boring

    >praise Cawwadooty and Halo stories

    Never change.

  • STFU the storyline from the GCN version was awesome.

  • I thought the first one was fairly original. sure if you rip it to the basics it would feel like a lot of others, but theirs not a single game that i've seen that you use tiny robos to fight each other.to me it's original.

  • this is the 3rd best game i ever saw i saw more than 1000...

  • KAH KAH POKEMON!!

  • story is horrible?your life is horrible

  • I think this game is amzing in every aspect

  • I didn't play through the story mode four times to retread the story again, mind you. Just to play it again in a directed experience.

    But some of the characters are actually a bit endearing, if not at all deep or dynamic.

  • Honestly still a game I enjoy. I actually still go back to it occasionally, 4 years later, over many other DS games typically considered "better".

    I don't know why. Maybe because I never get any better at it, and I'm only decent. Regardless, I've played the story four times spread out over the time I've owned it, racking up quite a few hours.

  • Why did the story make such an impression on you? It's a fun game, and while the story isnt too engrossing, it serves its purpose and there is no need to contribute such a large amount of reviewing time to it.

  • GOD DAMMIT STOP FUCKING RUINING THE STORY FOR ME CRAP!!! IF YOUR GONNA SPOIL THE WHO STORY AT LEAST SAY SO BEFORE HAND SO I CAN GO SOME WHERE ELSE BETTER!

  • you, should uh, get that cough checked out. lol

  • THE STORY RULES!!!!

  • good review youve help me decide im sold ha ha! XD

  • It's a rly good game if u don't already hav it

  • can someone tell me if you can replay the storyline after beating it?

  • dude, your reviews dont makes sense, if your going to make official game reviews at least try to be sophisticated about it

  • @totodile42 True true, pokemon it seems theres always some mentally ill person who got ahold of a common dark type pokemon trying to take over the world

  • what a loser its the game not the story or pokemon -__-

  • this game is fun, get it. hopefully the first battle will be a win if you can get people to play on wifi.

  • Still sucks. You are making opinions on the story line and the graphics. This is suppose to be a review of what is GOOD not what sucks. And you are suppose to do the fan's opinions. Plus you gotta talk about the game! STOP SAYING THE BAD STUFF!

  • They should make a second Custom Robo arena

  • I really liked the one for gamecube for its gameplay, I didnt think the story was all that bad. It was rather bland and you could tell who bad guys are but the rahu robot made it slightly interesting I think. Great review, I'll probably get this when I see it.

  • I think it's a good review... quick but good. And I think explaining how good is the story is relevant for a video game rating but the Story rating vs Final rating should depend on what was the main goal of the game (like the story in Unreal tournament). I didn't play this game yet but it seems that theres a tons of talks within the story. So the story SHOULD matter. Also, I think the game is described by itself by just looking at the video.

  • Rumuors are you can only get Ray Mk-I by hacks...

  • @Zyroism lol close XD no really lol you gotta finish all of the grudge matches, then you go to your club house and you see eddy and liv fight them and she actually uses the ray 1 and eddy of course uses his lightning

  • should i get custom robo for gamecube or arean for ds?

  • Pokemon had a great story line

  • 1:10 to 1:12 (uuhuum:pokemon: hum..)

    xD

  • I've got the game And I Have completed it 30 times and i only got it 10 days ago

  • I thought the story was amazing O_o

  • I saw you uploader comments, and your acting like a fucktard. No, wait, you are one.

  • I understand what you mean by a bad story, but everything is generic. I thought Halo's story sucked. But I'm not going to focus on that. You just cant sit and say the story is bad. Its for kids (mainly) so the story is going to be crappy. This is Zelda, its not supposed to be epic. Its just supposed to be good beat em up fun. Besides, the Story (for a nintendo game) is pretty decent, since it ramps up in the end.

  • the story doesnt matter its a kids game

  • @partymonster411 Yeah, but some people want good children games. That way they will come faster to your rape van.

  • talk about the game f-tard not the story. 

  • @Abband0n Dude, grow a pair and call me a fucktard. Or have something witty to say, Also, troll harder. 

  • @JBGameReviews Why do I have to be witty? Your the one trying to be a game reviewer, isnt that your job?? I am just telling you that you SUCK at it.

  • This is a terrible review. Please stop making vids.

  • @JBGameReviews taibo15 is just a troll, i think this is a perfectly fine review. i gave a thumbs up

  • @taibo15 I agree.

    

  • yea the wiping the dirty of the robot is pretty creepy when you have to clean its groin area. the game play is awesome though, i am yet to play online, since i only got the game today

    i agree with the customisation being just right for a game of this size for the DS, armored core was rediculous, there are about 10 different things you can do to fine tune your engines and weapons, crazy complex stuff.

  • @cardgamesareawsome1 you can change the button layout so you will never have to use the L button, which is pretty cool layout C i think it is

  • i wish this was more known as its an amazing game.

  • 63001 combinations of parts!!! WOOT

  • Comment removed

  • the thing i hated about this game was Your character never talked during the entire game

  • i loved the gamcubes story so.. fuck you

  • I really disagree with you.

    Whether there are clichés present or not, the writing and plot are written well enough to compel, and there are plenty of elements points to back it up.

    Try and make sure tou have your facts accurate for things like the play time of the game, "a couple hours" is way off the mark for a game that will give someone 10-15 on a speed through, and even more on a completionist run.

    This review is a good attempt. GJ.

  • Comment removed

  • cough cough poke'mon! lol.

    i may get this because it reminds me of silver knights for pc and axis for pc.

  • Ah yes... The story... It got to the point where I would just spam A at the talking scenes until I got to a fight.

  • you suck man and the story rocks

  • cough cough pokemon that was hilarious

  • douchebag :)

  • 7.7 not a bad rating is it?

  • i agree with metalmusicunion the story line in the gamecube one is great it is about the kid but hes not trying to be the best hes trying to complete the mission that he encounters to live on his fathers legacy. It's not about collecting or being the best its about defeating the enemy and the final scene at the end of the gc one explained a lot to the story and made me say: Wow! Thats pretty crazy. I don't want to spoil it but the gamecube story line was great. I have never played the ds one tho

  • @stitch5pickups I really recommend you give the DS version a shot!

  • story in custom robo is actually pretty good

  • I was looking and though, "man, he needs to clean his robo more often."

  • who plays games for stroyline?

  • @ST0PM0SS storyline game whores thats just like asking who plays games for hte graphics graphic whores lol

  • cant believe this has so many views...V__V

  • Your review sucks.

  • hahahaa the pokemon thing was hilarious xD haha i like your voice. tnhx im going to play it today i think.

  • I actually really liked the plot of the gamecube version, I thought it was pretty good.

  • hey u just a hater @ pokemon and u suck @ it is better than u think u dumb crack head

  • i love this game

  • 2:29 HANDJOB!

  • wtf this is nice! wtf , "pokemon?" i got a 8 so wats the problem?

  • The story got a bum rap in Custom Robo Battle Revolution for Gamecube too, but I liked it there. Though I wish it was more developed after the New Journey.

  • Yeah dude, fuck it youve convinced me, lemme get my R4i and begin downloading lol...nice vid..

  • "Too little complex". Sorry, I lol'd at that. Good review though.

  • i like the game even with a bad story

  • lol cough cough pokemon

  • I remember playing cr on gamecube my fav on gc i even liked the story (im saying the story is not that bad and i realy liked it (mostly for the battles(im very good at this game just did not know about the ds version))). Any ways its a great game and the story might entertain you a little (just a bit childish though but very fun).

  • i kinda liked the story, Liv is cute, :3

  • i loved armored core i kicked everyones ass every time with one of i beastly robots the only way they could win is if they survive long enough for my guns to overheat

  • i like the gamecube one but i don't know about the ds one though*almost a copy below* but yes i agree about the gameplay, nice reveiw man!

  • the story in the gamecube one is good!

    i dont know about thr ds one

  • Hey, does anyone from the UK have a spare club nintendo points code from this game? thanks a lot if you do. :)

  • the gc custom robo had a good story in my opinion and it was something very different

  • Is there any game for ds thats like robot arena 2 (for PC) where you can actually build your own robots?

    As I understand here, all you do is select a component, but you cannot arrange positions or alter the shape of the robot...

  • I agree with that. The story is so boring to the point where it's like, "SCREW YOU! I JUST WANNA GO BATTLE!!" The battles are really fun though =D Does anybody know if this game has download play? Where only one person has the game and two people can still play. It seems like you would need both people to have the game to do download play.

  • my friend first showed me this game and i was thinking like pokemon but the thing that made me buy the game was the kickass robos and the awsome intence fighting

  • I dont have this game but i got metroid prime hunters from online because I heard there are better stuff. I might buy this game next, THEN mario kart. HELP!!!!!!! Does a lot of people play custom robo arena wifi? If they still do, i will get it.

  • story might be bad but the battles are cool

  • I think you over exaggerated the story line. It's actually pretty good.

  • I thought it was okay but it really did reemind me of pokemon

  • @MetalMusicUnion Yeah, as soon as he said Custom Robo: battle revolution's story was bad, I couldn't trust the review. That game seriously had one of my favorite stories in a game ever. It actually surprised me multiple times which is what I look for in a good story. Nothing is worse than a story that tries to have "twists" but ends up being extremely predictable.

    I liked this story, but not nearly as much as the gamecube one.

  • Dude you obviously have never played MPH LOL! MPH and COD Modern Warefare Mobilzied have some of the best online play on the DS

  • MPH ?

  • Metriod Prime Hunters -_-'

  • call of duty on ds? no thanks. actaully, call of duty altogether = rather play twilight trivia on the wii. (twilight trivia really sucks, by the way.)

  • ... Youve obviously never played Call Of Duty..

  • yes I have. it sucks, team fortress 2 is much better.

  • Team Fortress 2 is horrible.

  • no, it isn't. Have you played it? a game isnt horrible just because you suck at it you know.

  • @gtas123 dude, how could you not like it

  • cough cough pokemon. lol

  • @darriond1997 HEY i Wanted to say that!!!

  • Lol, I love this video, your review is funny and accurate too.

  • the game is good but the story is bad

    and the worse thing the stupid ass family

  • toy robots?more like ass kicking deadly robots.(sorry for any innapropriate language i used.)

  • i loved the story line

  • In my opinion the story is fine, sure its not the "best storyline ever" but its definately good enough to get.

  • Thats not it.Every battle I fought in single player I used diferent body`s which made the game even better

  • the story is good enough for a decent game. and the graphics are wonderful. and awsome gameplay, so this is a really good worth getting game. (but im talking about the gamecube one, but this game looks really good)

  • story good

  • I have to say the story was pretty

    desent.

  • Love this game. Specially when you get past the storyline and can get way better robos, not to mention illegal ones...

  • Game cube one had the better story line

    the grapics for the game cube one pushes the system to the max but custom robo wasent that popluar in the us

  • nobody cares about story

  • its all about game play

  • can you play this game on wi-fi??

  • Yes you can, all you need is a wi-fi adapter (or wireless net). uhmnn if you're a minor and need help with setting it up i'd sugest asking a parent/ guardian

  • this game look good man

  • ehem ehem pokemon lol

  • armored core is awesome.

  • I loved the gamecube's story!  You couldn't understand it? That's your loss.

  • this game is great!!! =D

  • I liked the story even if its generic it was good.Yeah the story is like pokemon,but who never liked pokemon.

  • Yu-Gi-Oh fans... And Hitler.

  • actually hitler loved pokemon. its a little known fact.

  • Great review 5 stars + sub.

  • with how far ive gotten in it, i find the story lame and interesting at the same time

  • hahahahaha * ehem, ehem pokemon*

  • the story of this game is not good but its not bad but if you say this is better then the gc then that means you never played the gc version the story was great if not one of the best storyline next ff

  • and your voixce looks like thatisdosie or something..

  • he the story dont look like pokemon ! the story is great! and that liv can dive egain is original!to be honest im stuck in dthe game i must get lvl 10 of the arcade with the chick robo! i hate marv!

  • >Saying the gamecube Custom Robo story sucked.

    No.

  • I liked the story actually, Sure it had the same old generic storyline but i actually liked the characters that were in it.

  • i thought the story in the gamecube version was really good... this guy has no idea what he is talking about

  • man, no1 plays online anymore, some1 wanna exchange friend codes?

  • Because a game about robots shooting each other needs a great fucking story right? Who cares? If you want a story play a Final Fantasy game.

  • do u still see this on the shelves at gamestop or something?

  • man i love this game

  • I like the story, but i think its a bit to easy. Its like my favorit game, next to final fantasy 3 Ds. Its great. Love it

  • its actully very long story its really fun but somtimes it can get boring

  • jb custom arena has a great story so shut up >:D

  • custom robo for GC has a good story

  • *cough*cough* Pokemon! lol

  • how the only thing they have alike is rpg

  • that is not true...

  • so many things i hate about this game

    1. i hate all the stupid talking

    2.whenever the opponent is down i hate the stupid regenerate shit.

    3/ once again all this stupid ass talking and having to go to the stupid school and back home to eat with the stupid ass family soooo many times back and forth seriously wtf!

  • That's one of the best games for the DS.

  • this game is great!

  • THERRES CUSTOM ROBO 4 THE WII? AWESOME

  • reminded me alot of Medabots (customazation and 2D graphic style) the combat is fun you can also play it as a TPS in the combat

  • lmao! "ohoh big shocker" at 1:23

  • CUSTOM ROBO FOR THE WII FTW.

  • LOL am i the only one here that didnt mind the story at all?????????? i kinda liked it and online is very empty now
