Gundam Battle Assault 2 - Hydra VS Epyon

[Matanumi]

@FatalDeathSG45 I agree. same graphic sprite style with SEED, Destiny and 00 suits on the PSP

[Matanumi]

two of OZs finest Gundams, the coolest gundams to grace the series. and two of Oz's most influential people.

I love this game. Hydra should've made GvG

[VendavalEste]

@FatalDeathSG45 This, it's why I enjoy this one far less.

[eventclaim]

image hydra could shot his weapons like that 2.30 in one time

[PartTimeTroll]

Man, the first battle assult is too fucking hard, This one is cooler cause Its "Beatable" Unlinke the first one, and that damn Psycho Gundam MK II

[DreamKing2]

@PartTimeTroll The first one was pretty beatable, especial with mobile suits like the ZZ, Quin Mantha, and the O, playable in single player. And it was the Psycho Gundam Mk III, it was a made up model for these games

[FoieGras]

@PartTimeTroll This one had major balance issues (the first one as well but it was much better balanced), and the combo system in this one non-existent. Zeong's super just shoots a bunch of shots that can be blocked at any time for Chrissakes. Rx-78 and Wing 0 are way too powerful for non-secret characters (All 3 Gundam Hammers in 1 go and Buster Rifle spam? WTF)

[unwanted22]

What a fuckin great match that was. And I learned a lot from the people from the comments below. Gundam Otaku's can you guys help me out on this. I'm just starting though, I don't even have a damn clue on the UC. I know I suck -__-

[InfectiousGore]

Looking back on this, I'm glad they only decided to employ a couple of the Epyon's movesets from Endless Duel; it would have been just as impossible to beat him in GBA 2 just as it was in Endless Duel had it been able to use the whip as violently.

If you have no idea what I'm talking about, look for an Endless Duel video and take note of how much the AI modes with that fucking thing.

[LouFutura]

ur not bad, but id crush u with the magnificent Rose Gundam ; D

[dirtdude59]

this game was so awesome

[cyberchild94]

was this game for ps2? or ps1?

[VendavalEste]

Pee-ess-one.

[alHalwima]

Hydra doesn't look that tough. Give it an abnormal design and regeneration ability like Devil Gundam, and you've got a juggernaut. Valdor looks like the gayest Gundam pilot ever.

[VendavalEste]

Didn't catch a word of that buddy.

[alHalwima]

I'm just saying that Hydra has NO gimmicks whatsoever. Qubeley was the first to use funnels, Psycho Gundam has the size and particle cannons, Deathscythe has his scythe, and God Gundam has the Sekiha-Tenkyouken. What the hell does Hydra have?

[VendavalEste]

Impenetrable e-field and was the strongest Mobile Suit in the Wing timeline, that seemed kinda stupid of you to say, lol, I really wouldn't worry about gimmicks when it comes to Mobile Suits because they practically ALL have something. Also, I like its design.

[andyx181x]

yup everything he says its true, hydra is suppose to from the side storys of gundam wing, its a modded up tallgeese. its got a nice beam rifle, energy cannons, its fast and in this game its the smoothest fighter with the easiest combos

[alHalwima]

I find it kinda odd that the coolest Gundams are from the mangas and not the animes. These include Hydra, Sazabi Nightingale, Hi-Nu Gundam, Gundam mk-III, Ex-S Gundam, and more. It's still good that they put them in video games like this and Super Robot Wars. Still, I don't know how American players would know that without the Internet, but I'm guessing it says so in the manual.

[andyx181x]

tell me about it, see then that why we argue the mangas aren't cannon lol. so we can let go the fact that they couldn't think of these cool designs for the show

[SB0083]

Actually, the Mobile Suit Gundam Dual Story: G-Unit manga is canon, along with stuff like Gundam Seed Astray and Crossbone Gundam. Usually, manga versions of Gundam series are non-canon.

[andyx181x]

Yea i know that, cause the original creator worked on them, i'm talking about the other series that made a larger improvement on it afterwards.

[SuperSkyStriker]

@alHalwima no kira Jesus Yamato Christ is the gayest gundam pilot ever next to athrun

[alHalwima]

@SuperSkyStriker True that. I always thought Athrun was a chick until hearing "he" and "him" enough times. Valdor (if that was his name) looks like the guy from the "Spin Me Round" video, but without the eyepatch.

[SuperSkyStriker]

@alHalwima I always thought kira jesus yamato christ and athrun were butt bubbies they way they act around each other is like they are actually in love with each other. Like on helopolis (if i spelt that right) where they are looking ay each other between the fence and athrun gives kira the stupid robot bird. I seriously thought kira was about to kiss athrun any minute. Valdort does look like that guy. too bad he doesn't have a eyepatch that would be a improvement.

[hellmasker2002]

ok having playing gundam endless duel for the snes and seen this game here i have only one comment: why the hell is the battle so sloooow? Epyon would kick asses in an instant, but here moves so sluggishly (dont know if that's even a word :P)

[VendavalEste]

Yes it's a word and you're exaggerating, it doesn't feel all that show. Hell, it's an awesome game and it's slow because they're hulking huge mecha, just like they are in the show.

[hellmasker2002]

i didnt mean to exaggerate :) i was a little surpised though... more realism i guess huh

Anyway its still nice to see epyon in 3d :P

[VendavalEste]

2D. lol

[acidglow]

Hydra was my fav in this game next to the overpowered PsychoMKII. Good play

[VendavalEste]

Thanks, and fuck I hated Psyco here, it just uppercuts constantly.

[acidglow]

Best time to do the unblockable saber attacks.

[VendavalEste]

Which is just when it's knee and shin connects to your tiny face, lol.

[acidglow]

Block it as he goes up and start the attack at as soon as your block frames are released. Worked for me.

[VendavalEste]

Which is just when it's knee and shin connects to your tiny face, lol.

[Ranmaru02]

Ooh! Are you into the Metroid series? I'm currently playing 'em!

[VendavalEste]

I like Metroid, my friend's a big fan, I want to see if I can get any for GBA.

[Ranmaru02]

For GBA, there's Metroid Fusion, Zero Mission Metroid, and NES Classic Metroid. I say Metroid is its first kind than Castlevania!

[VendavalEste]

Awesome.

[jonothandavis]

Zero Mission is a good Metroid game. Incredibly easy for me though. Fusion is hard but not as good as Zero Mission. The classic one is fun too.

[VendavalEste]

Wrong video much?

[jonothandavis]

Now that I think about it, that's quite possible. But anyways I ind the Epyon a lil harder to pilot than The Hydra, but he's more fun to use :)

[VendavalEste]

Both are a lot of fun, Epyon takes some getting used to though.

[jonothandavis]

Yep. I mainly use either Epyon, or the Tallgeese.  Tallgeese when I feel like shooting the shit out of something, and Epyon when I want to piss my friends off. :D

[Shadow8411]

@VendavalEste lmao

[Ranmaru02]

PAL... So that's what it is...!

[VendavalEste]

lol, yup. I don't think it's a problem with games nowadays.

[Ranmaru02]

The selection music seems a bit slower than the usual pace.

[VendavalEste]

That's thanks to the bastardization known as region coding; PAL, which is European, runs slightly slower than NTSC (you). As some of the music in this game is generated by the PlayStation itself, it runs slower (I swear sometimes you guys are talking out of your asses when you complain that a game is slow and it gets worse over here, didn't mean for that to sound offensive, but uh yeah, lol).

[Ranmaru02]

Are you playing this on an emulator?

[VendavalEste]

Not at all, what makes you think that?
