Custom Robo - GameCube

Robot battles

This game is not bad. The battles are very fun. And the story was interesting. The music well is not impressive but is ok. And graphics the robots look good. The only problem is that sometimes it get's hard and it's repitive. But Nintendo made a cool game.

Custom Robo - GameCube

Take a dive.

Custom Robo, isn't a bad game, nor is it a good one. It's very mediocre, has a few interesting aspects to it, but it just fell short of my expecttations. Graphics:4.0 The character models are good, and have a great anime look to them, but there the only things that stands out. The backrounds are bland and uninspired, and the places where you fight with your robos can look pretty good. The robos themselves look great, and are really detailed and just plain cool looking. Sound:3.0 None of the music stands out and all, really, you'll barely notice it, when you do, it's pretty repetitive. There're no voiceovers, just a really annoying beep-boop noise when the text goes across the screen. This will make you press A to just read the text all at once, everyitme anyone talk. The sound effects are the only good part. Control:4.0 Moving your character around the map is simple, so i'll focus on the battles. The battle control is just what you need, and nothing else. They take nothing to get into, and anyone should be able to get used after 3 or 4 battles. They main problem is the robo's movements are very shakey. You can be moving really fast, but if you let go of the control stick for a second, you'll come to almost a complete stop. Bomb targeting is useless, the only time you'll ever hit your enemy with a bomb is when they're down. Fun Factor:3.5 The games story is kind of interesting, and a bit surprising, despite being riddled with cliches. Fighting is cool, but eventually gets repetitive. Also, I, personally had no drive to keep playing this game. I borrowed it from a friend, and usually with a borrowed game I play nonstop. But with Custom Robo I really had no interest in continuing. It's a ok game, and has it's moments. But it's a rental, and nothing else.
