    If, however, this is your first introduction to the Gundam series and a solid game is more your goal, you’ll find the gameplay frustrating and the average graphics and sound disappointing.

    The game isn’t particularly innovative, and ends rather rapidly. It is more of a Gundam teaser than a really rich gaming experience.
  3. GamePro

    Limited button-customization, poor object detection, and sloppy beam-saber execution add to the frustrations. Still, Journey to Jaburo is an enjoyable alternative for fans of giant-robot games.

    A snail in an Olympic sized pool moves faster than this game, and it gets to the point where it becomes too frustrating to play.

    Overall this game was good but I think that they should have made the controls easy to use so you would not struggle. I would have made it where you could cut things in half so you could better follow the role of the gundam like when he cuts a zeon moble suit in half in the space colony at the begining of the series.… Expand

    I thought the game was great. All the gundam fans should be amused. I thought the game needed some more control though...that is my only complaint.
