We’re talking Goliath mechs, mammoth battles, and epic energy swords that could slice through steel like a hot knife through butter.Amiga, Amstrad CPC, Amstrad PCW, Apple II, Apricot PC, Atari 8-bit, Atari ST, Commodore 64, CP/M, Rainbow, Kaypro II, Macintosh, NEC APC, Osborne 1, MS-DOS, PC-9801, TI-99/4A, TRS-80. But, if this is your first time playing, then you’re in for a real surprise. Konami know how to make incredible Anime action games, with slick levels and smooth gameplay that, twinned with an epic storyline, will win you over in seconds and keep you coming back for more time and time again!Īnyone who has played a Zone of the Enders game before should know what to expect. This game is ultimate madness from start to finish, with more lasers flying around in a confined space that is ever advisable. The results are in, the robotic uprising has finished, and Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner is officially the best PS2 Robot game of all time! The character titled ‘The Hero’ moves around the city trying to stay out of the blast zone of the fight in a safe space.Ĭamera views move between the Hero and the Mech Fighter, allowing you to strategise where your attacks will fall so that you don’t end up being crushed by a hundred tonnes of monster and rubble!īeat back the aliens and save the last city on Earth… or at least whatever’s left of it after you’ve finished destroying it. The main twist in this game is that the player controlling the robots actions isn’t actually in the robot itself. While the game itself starts off pretty easy, the enemies become sneakier and more aware of your movements as you play, making getting one up on them much trickier. The character below looks super similar to the MegaZord too… not that I seem to have Power Rangers on the brain today or anything. Robot Alchemic Drive takes todays bronze medal in our PS2 Robot games list, giving us MegaZord -esque battles in big cityscapes. If you fail, you’ll have to pay for all of your costs out of your character’s pocket, so don’t mess up! 4. Work your way up the competitive ladder, destroying your rivals, fixing any repairs, and earning cold hard cash along the way. Be careful not to go too overboard, however, as making your machine too top heavy could have disastrous consequences on both its movement and power consumption.Ĭompleting missions and earning extra funds in the battle arena are core parts of the series as a whole, so the gameplay doesn’t change much between the first Armored Core game or Silent Line. Like Silent Line: Armored Core above, the 7th title in the Armored Core series, players can customise their mechs to the nth degree.
Despite it having a ‘2’ after the name, it’s actually the 4th game in the list, just to make it a little more confusing.Īnd, if you’re an NTSC gamer, then you may well have got this game along with the PS2 on launch day, making it a bit of a big deal! S.L.A.I.: Steel Lancer Arena International (2005)Īrmored Core 2 takes the 5th spot in our best PS2 Robot games list. There’s lots for the 101% completion club to sink their robotic teeth into too, though you may have to take out insurance on your controller as there is a strong chance that, like the remnants of your Decepticon foes, it will lay in a mound of chips and wires by the end of the game.
It’s definitely one of the hardest games on the console, but that does at least mean that you’ll have a lot of replayability from it. The only thing that I don’t like about this game is how insanely difficult it is. Sure, the films are a little loud and chaotic, but that’s what being an Autobot is all about.įight the Decepticons and search for 40 mini Transformers that basically serve as cool MegaZord-style add ons to make you even more powerful! I love the Transformers franchise always have and always will. That was supposed be a play on ‘optimum’, but I think i’ve just disappointed you and myself, so let’s keep going. Transformers takes the 10th spot on this list of the best PS2 Robot games of all time, kicking things off with ‘Optimus’ precision.
