Gundam Breaker 3: Break Edition (2017)
Genres:Arcade, Hack and slash/Beat 'em up
Themes:Action
Game modes:Single player
Story:The third installment of the fan-favorite Gundam Breaker series is here! Taking a unique and meta approach towards the Gundam universe, Gundam Breaker 3 continues the formula of bringing action-packed mecha-on-mecha battles that revolve around one of the core aspects of the series: the building of Gunpla model kits! The management mechanics revolve around the creative choice of building your own model kit based on their real-life counterparts.
There are over 100 Gunpla kits to choose from, which gives you endless building opportunities! You can colorize parts, define material types such as plastic or chrome, add decals, scale optional loadouts, and save your kits into a list to restore whenever you want to fight with that model.
Aside from customizing the entire body, you get a shield, melee weapon, and ranged weapon slot for your primary arsenal, 4 Ex-Actions for explosive attacks, and 8 slots for your optional loadouts which can include missile pods, rail cannons, beam launchers, beam sabers, axes, and all sorts of other offensive and defensive mechanisms. This is one of the most freeform combat experiences ever made in 3rd person arena combat.
Two escorts join you in most of the battles, performing healing and attack actions while also rescuing you from being knocked out. You can also instruct them to do certain actions.
A new "Bounty Hunter Mode" has been added to the series. In this mode, players will be able to battle against Gunpla that have been uploaded by other players, and the victor will walk away with in-game currency and all parts that have been broken off of enemy kits.
The Break Edition includes all the DLC of the normal edition.Show more

Despite being slightly repetitive with the gameplay, the customization is beyond legendary. I have spent over one or two hundred hours with this game on my Playstation. It is an awesome alternative to kitbashing/using broken gunpla to your own Gundam!
This is one of those games where, if you know the franchise, and are a fan of the setup, you'll be able to sink WEEKS of real time into the gameplay. Mixing and matching parts, min-maxing your build, and the Break Edition includes all the DLC, so you always have something to challenge yourself with.
Even better, there IS a plot here, and a decent one, not fantastic, but it goes places, with an unusual heft to the characters you might not expect. There's a reason the two leads of this one eventually came back in Gundam Breaker 4, which was more than a decade later in both real time and game time.

ParodiusParodius, also known as Parodius: The Octopus Saves the Earth, is the first title in the Parodius series.
The name itself is a portmanteau of "Gradius" and "Parody" and, eponymously, the game is a parody of the Gradius series of space-based horizontally scrolling shooters. The gameplay is very similar to the Gradius games, with other aspects from games such as TwinBee. However, the characters are replaced with silly characters taken from either these or other Konami games, as well as Japanese culture.
The player can play as either Tako (father of Takosuke), an octopus, the Penguin (father of Pentarou) from Antarctic Adventure and the exclusive MSX game Penguin Adventure, Goemon from the Ganbare Goemon series, the Popolon knight from the MSX game Knightmare or the Vic Viper spaceship from Gradius.
The game is composed of six stages consisting of various obstacles and enemies such as penguins and bees, as well as more traditional Gradius enemies such as Moai. As with Gradius, the game utilizes a similar selection-bar based power-up system.Action Fantasy Comedy
ParodiusShoot'em ups don't come any weirder than Parodius - dodge through waves of killer penguins, neon rabbits and 50ft tall dancing girls. An intense experience of one or two players.
This compilation collects the first two arcade incarnations of Konami's shoot'em'up parody series on one disc: Fantastic Journey (Gokujou Parodius) and Parodius (Parodius Da!). Unlike the ports seen on the SNES these are much more accurate to the original arcade version.Action Fantasy Comedy
