Ps: Project X. Zone impressions: Just what I expected. Combat is very fun, similar to Super Robot Taisen Originl Generation Endless Frontier, but much better. It also borrows some of the worst aspects of that game, namely the original characters and the fanservice. Haken, Kagura, Reiji and Xiaomu joined by newcomers Mii and... Kogoro? He's so bland I didn't even bother learning his name. Kagura is one of the worst designs in the game, and dare I say ever? She might as well be wearing just a towel, she looks dumb. Haken is a sort of Cowboy thing who is wearing so much crap over his long coat it makes you wonder just how he moves. Reiji is totally overdone and looks like a Dante wanna be... But he carries like 4 swords and can use fire(at least in the previous game) so I kinda like him. Xiaomu was made to appeal to the "moe" fans, flatchested(as it gets with Fanservicey games) and fox ears, but I kinda like her and how she fights alongside Reiji (cool by association?). The new Mii/Kogoro(?) Couple appeals to "moe" and the more straight forward fanservice crowd, she's supposed to be shy and stuff while Kogoro asks her to kick higher or give him fanservice. They suck.
You'd hope that they'd at least respect the other companies's characters... But no, during special attacks the guys look all badass and stuff... While on females the camera slides through their thighs/ass/chest with the occasional zoom on their bouncing breasts, y'know classy, tasteful stuff. It's a dumb game, but at least the combat is fun...
They also got the other kind of fanservice right, characters perform their moves based on their games, like Chris Redfield's infamous rock punches and uppercuts, or how fighting game characters, like Chun Li or Ryu perform EX moves, heck, Ryu performs a FADC during his super move! If only they didn't shoe-horn their original characters into the game, seems the annoying Mii-Kogoro couple are the main characters...
