    Last Raven is the seventh and last Armmored Core title for the PS2, and it's definitely the best of the bunch. [July 2006, p.78]
  2. The story is old hat, the telling of it is pretty lame but overall it serves as a good enough excuse to get into a giant robot and blow things up.
  3. This is the Dynasty Warriors of mech games, and much like how that franchise is solidly enjoyable, so goes Armored Core.

    The presentation is weak, the gameplay flawed, and the reliance on insanely in-depth customization will likely end up annoying most gamers.

    Bad ass game, bad ass series. Don't see how its too complicated even for a newbie because I just picked it up. Never played the earlier versions until I bought it. Now I own all of the PS2 versions! Its not the game or the series' fault if you're a sub-par gamer. Expand

    Although it is a long and difficult game, there is a lot has to offer. The customization is very detailed making it possible to get exacty what your looking for, for the task at hand.It might be hard to channel all the information into a fun game but once you get the hang of it, it'll be fun.

    Superb title. If your a true AC fan than you will love this game. The controls actually take skill to use (imagine that) but once you get used to it, its one of the best games ever. Armored Core is hands down the best mech game out there. Ive been playing since Armored Core: Project Phantasm. If you want a good mech game than you have come to the right place. Awesome combat with alot of deep customization make this game worth the money. Buy it now! Expand

    How can people find this game so hard to play, that's just ridiculous. How can 1UP expect people to take their reviews seriously if they can't grasp the bare basics of this great game? Expand
