I like 00 Raiser but don't care much for 00 basic. The swiveling drives is a cool idea but the way they hang off doesn't look well integrated.

Also the GN-X is funny because apparently nobody in any nation thought hey maybe we should make them look less evil. It's surprisingly fun to play in Versus for a basic rear end grunt suit, too.

What are everyone's favorite basic rear end grunt suits in Versus?

Mech games should really only have one of two speeds, slow and lumbering or BOOSTBOOSTBOOSTBOOSTBOOST.

Hirai's character designs are the biggest reason I just can't bring myself to rewatch Seed or Seed destiny. His art style only worked in Scryed imo.

Wing has Relena, making it extremely difficult to top.

There are apparently people out there in this crazy world of ours who think Relena sucks.

wing and relena are very good but 00 is better cause it's way more coherent as a series. also GN drives are cool as hell

Season 1 maybe, season 2 no.

00 is a lot more like Wing to the point it's a running joke in SRW that Heero and Setsuna are best friends.

I imagine their dialog is a collection of ...s and hmmms.

I think he asks Une for the latest number and lists some names. But I choose to believe he memorized all of them up to just before the battle, because Treize is great and owning Wufei is also great.

This is kind of silly, but it always bothered me that CB suddenly had uniforms in season 2 after spending all of S1 as such a civilian style group everyone just had regular rear end clothes or normal suits.

I'm cool with it because the CB uniforms are rad.

I was thinking about 00 season 2 today since it's been discussed here recently, and man in retrospect so many of the plot points come across as "We couldn't come up with enough stuff for a full season."

Why do they have faces though?

Why not? People personify tanks and planes, and there's the thing of painting shark teeth on old bombers. I mean in reality designers wouldn't waste time or money on more complicated parts, but it's at least not a stretch.

We all agree that the Tallgeese is the best unique mobile suit and the Leo is the best grunt.

Look at this motherfucker. Look at how angry his crotch is.

Those are also some strong grunts, because they are evocative of the Leo. I do like that the Reco grunts are beefy.

This is correct. It is followed by Tallgeese Valkyrie, Tallgeese III, then the other two.

And then in 00 it was a surprise that Allelujah was only like 19. I think Feldt and Soma and maybe Setsuna were younger, though.

Yeah basically just add 10 years unless they are literally a child or still clearly in school. Treize and Une could have been mid 30s at least pretty easily. Likewise with most of the SEED adults.

If you're not doing filing/sanding of nubs or panel lining you can put an HG together in like an hour or two. Just do it.

Man I sit down thinking I'll play just a match or two of Versus (against the AI because I'm a scrub) and then suddenly it's an hour later somehow. Finding the ones that click is great, and for me it's been Tallgeese I and Emma's Mk. II so far. I still really want Destiny and 00 Raiser, though.
