In all honesty, it looks like a cheap third-person action game with so-so cel-shaded graphics and base, uninteresting, repetitive gameplay. Sort of like that Robotech game that came out a couple years ago.

I say save your money for Syphon Filter or Prince of Persia. Much more promising.

Judging from the trailer it looks so-so,but IMNSHO most of Bandai's are not up to snuff (From the DBZ games to Gundam)
At least they have Spike using his jeet-kwon-do abilities,but will ya get to pilot the Swordfish?!?

They (Bandai) don't have the creativity or programming skills like Konami,Capcom and especially SEGA which many game companies are guilty of "borrowing" their ideas/concepts.

Cel shaded graphics can be great if done right,unfortunetly the games which used the aforementioned graphics, didn't fare as well as they should have. (Jet set radio,Thirteen and the ambitious but often repititive Robotech.)

Great site, now i'm looking forward to playing Bloodrayne 2.

It doesn't look all that great, but I'll rent it. Might as well give it a shot.

I doubt it will be any good.

I think there would be only ONE good way to make a Bebop game.

Get Hideo Kojima to create a new storyline that can place itself in the Bebop storyline with little to no plotholes.

Take Solid Snake and replace him with Spike

Take Liquid and replace him with Vicious.

Use MGS2 control scheme and put more emphasis on Gunfights and fighting then on stealth.

HOORAY FOR EARTH! A GOOD BEBOP GAME!



P.S. We also need Faye to give some fan-service of course! Laughing
