Gundam Evolution, for what it was, was a good time. The idea of a hero shooter in the world of Gundam, using the iconography and mechs from the franchise, is an enticing idea on paper and thankfully it mostly delivers that base concept. It's rough around the edges for sure, but for Gundam fans it delivers the right amount of actual strategic gameplay, fun mechs, and easter eggs that will keep them entertained.

Unfournately, this was likely the game's downfall in retrospect. There is very little here for a non-fan to grasp onto, and while gameplay is fine, it's nothing you haven't seen before and because of that I can't see any reason for a non-Gundam aficionado to get into this other then a new multiplayer game to play with friends. It's decent, but I wish it could have been more then just decent.
