This strategy RPG felt dated even in 2007, and insufficiently updated from the SNES iteration. Still, the modern-day, realistic techno-thriller setting is great and still rare (aside from the other Front Mission games and a few other notable series like Ace Combat). The gameplay, with separate damage for each area of the mechs, is also still fairly unique and has been built on competently in the Front Mission sequels.

Still worth playing, if only as a prelude to later games in the series.

Action RPGs, particularly on PC, were thin on the ground back in 1994. Back then, this was something special, with nice graphics, a mix of action and puzzle-solving, and good pacing. Now, though, it's completely unremarkable and worth playing only for historical value.
