Awesome
First thing I wanna say is Play-Asia has the BEST shipping ever. The game says ships within a week but they got it in that day that I ordered it and it arrived in just two days. Now as for the game, it is extremly awesome and easy to pick up. I love the cast of Mechas and can't wait to pick up SRW Z (I wanna play as Big O). If anyone is a fan of big mechas then I suggest you order this series.

Very good but not anything new
A fun game with a large range of attacks and a huge amount of mecha, some of the attacks are just so amazing its almost worth buying the game just to see them especially some of the things the GaoGaiGar can throw out. Unfortunately about half way though the game the fun subsides and begins to turn into a bit of a grind fest with very little variation in mission types, also the plot is totally lost on anyone without a good understanding of the Japanese language and some of the pre deployment menus can be seriously overwhelming (there is still about 30 buttons with purposes that have so far eluded me). Nevertheless its one of the better SRW games and a hell of a blast, just don’t expect anything revolutionary in terms of game play.

I don't think the series can get any better than this
All the systems have been drastically improved...you can now fast forward battle scenes, which is a very nice touch.
The weaker mechs can now gain high levels via the platoon systems...The classic strong robots are being weakened in this installment, while other strong new robots are taking the roles of those classic robots.(Gaogaiga, for example, is insanely strong.)

Grab the reduced price version when it comes out...you will not regret! I guarantee!

An SRW Work of Art Personified!
If you are a fan of the "mecha" genre, then you don't want to miss this one! Get either the Special Edition boxset containing SRW Alpha, SRW Alpha Gaiden and SRW Alpha 2, or each separately and this one to truly appreciate the way a strategy game with giant robots should be made! ^^
