I got this game as an Xbox original for my 360 back in the day until it got lost, and it was a very challenging yet satisfying time. I am saddened that the sequels were never made, I want an official PC version since Xbox does not seem like they will not put it on Series X/S.
I remember when my father got the PS2 Version back then. It laid on the table in the kitchen. I didn't know anything about the game, but immediately put it into the console, and was completely amazed. It was my first action game on the PS2, and it became my favourite. From the destructive environment, to the ability to control enemies. Getting scared in the wastelands levels (I was 12 back then), and ... maybe I stop there, don't wanna spoil anything. In my opinion, a must-play, but unfortunately not digitally available. So here's hope we might get a PC Port on GOG.
I always loved trying to keep as many of the Droid miners alive as possible to have my own little army. This franchise has so much hidden potential for a modern day reboot!
Originality! So much fun! Addicting! Funny dialog! Great childhood memories :). I have been waiting for years for the 2nd game. Even a remaster with extra goodies would be a great start.
I mowed lawns for a summer to save up for my first console. I was hoping to get an Xbox and Halo, but then noticed this game in the store for GameCube and decided to get it instead (it was rated T and I figured my parents would appreciate that more). I'm so glad I did. It was similar to Halo, but funny, quirky, humorous, and I had many hours of fun messing around in multiplayer with my brothers. The only legal way I have to play it is on an aging Xbox 360, and I'm not sure how much longer that will last. I'd love to see it come to PC where it can be replayed and preserved for generations.
This was the best game during that period because of weapons design creativity, story mysticism and impressive development, special multiplayer features, and perfect balance of humour.
Played it with my brother and our two close friends, as well as another friend later on with who I connected with through this game, and we still enjoy talking about this very game so many years later. I just managed to save my xbox copy from all its scratches and made it playable again. Making it available for pc would make us play together again, instead of alone.
Glitch, one of my favorite video game character. A simple little game but with a lot's of gameplay and a deep story in a world full of robots. Epic scene and fight, original music and industrial level design that change frequently, Metal Arms will probably be forever in my heart of gamer. Thanks Glitch ;)
This game was my childhood, possibly one of the only games I've always been interested to know more, a game that deserved its promised trilogy, i would love for this game to have its promised trilogy, and for it to atleast gain a bigger community for people that would enjoy this game
A friend and I used to play multi-player on his gamecube, pretty close to when it came out. We stopped playing when I started winning a lot more, hehe. I picked it up a few years later for $14 at ebgames. Best $14 ever spent, beat it on easy and medium, still working on nuts of steel! If this got a sequel or even just a modern pc port, I'd lose my mind
Countless memories of playing this game split screen after school with my brother and my friends. I was lucky enough to own the Xbox and ps2 version with the Xbox version being my preference. All the fun of hacking each other or creating armies with the grenade that made enemies into allies . 4 player split screen was so much fun. I wish this series got to continue and grow as an Xbox exclusive that would’ve rivaled ratchet & clank and jak and daxter ! I hope GOG or NightDive studios or Aspyr can help us relieve this game to its fullest potential someday !

Virtua CopPlayers assume the role of police officers in a first-person perspective and use a light gun to shoot criminals and advance through the game, with penalties for shooting civilians. The players could also shoot powerups that grants him a weapon or a life. The weapon is lost if the player is hit, but not if he shoots a civilian. Virtua Cop was notable for its use of polygonal graphics, which were subsequently used in both House of the Dead and Time Crisis, instead of the two dimensional sprites that were popular for previous games in the same genre. It is also notable for being one of the first games to allow the player to shoot through glass. Its name derived from this graphical style, which was previously used in Virtua Fighter, Virtua Striker and Virtua Racing.Action

Armored Core: Project PhantasmaA Raven operating out of Isaac City receives an unusual request. Not only is the request both vague and cryptic, stating simply: "Infiltrate the underground urban complex, Amber Crown,", but it also bypasses normal channels of communication and is sent directly to the Raven in question, without anyone else seeing the message. No sender name or corporate affiliation is mentioned, but the monetary reward promised is massive. Because of the amount, the mission will obviously be intensely dangerous, but Ravens aren't the type to shy away from any challenge. With interest piqued, the Raven climbs into the AC and heads toward Amber Crown.Action
