71If, 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.
-
70Limited 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.
-
68Enjoyable despite its flaws, and it offers those who have never seen the original television series or its movie adaptation a condensed version of a classic part of anime history.
-
68For a mech combat game, Journey to Jaburo isn't terrible, but it is lacking good control and the graphics are pretty sad overall.
-
65It's not a recommended purchase for those who aren't fans of the series (and "Gundam Wing" followers are advised to stay well away), but it was never intended to be anything else.
-
The presentation is really where Mobile Suit Gundam: Journey to Jaburo shines.
-
If you're a huge fan of the original Gundam series, this is your Game of the Year...On the other hand, if you're just looking for a fun game, Jaburo will likely bore you with snail's pace gameplay and frustrating missions.
-
50Diminished quality, lackluster programming effort and PlayStation 2-unworthy effects.
-
50What it does have is anime cutscenes and voices lifted right out of the Gundam Wing series, and ultimately, fans of the series are the only ones who will get real enjoyment from it.
-
46A snail in an Olympic sized pool moves faster than this game, and it gets to the point where it becomes too frustrating to play.
-
This easily pales in comparison next to "Z.O.E." or "Armored Core 2," and I'm not interested in spending more time with it.
-
42The control can be a pain but the strength of the Gundam story is good enough to struggle through it.
-
Only a hollow shell of the landmark 1979 series that started it all. [Oct 2001, p.148]
-
The lack of multiplayer combat consigns this one to mediocrity. [Nov 2001, p.108]
-
Once again, Gundam gamers are left with the wrong end of the beam saber. More bad control, less game and more advertisements.
