Classic Evangelion fights recreated in debut JO trailer
In spite of its pretentious musings on existentialism, Evangelion has provided anime fans with tons of memorable fights. This debut trailer of Evangelion: JO, a PS2/PSP action game, kicks up the nostalgia factor with its brilliant recreations of classic franchise moments. Based on "You Are (Not) Alone," JO finally gives players what they've wanted for years: a real Evangelion action game where you can take full control of the mechs. The combat already looks pretty furious, and the style of the anime is amazingly recreated on the PS2/PSP platforms. We hope someone picks this up for Stateside release.[Via PSPHyper]
Evangelion: Jo puts PSP owners in the cockpit
Finally, an Evangelion game to get excited about! This isn't a dating sim, or a card game -- this is a real adventure game that looks to do the series justice by placing you in the cockpit of one of anime's most iconic mechs. This PSP adventure is based on the first film in the new theatrical remakes. Players will have to take part in Shinji's school life, but Famitsu also shows some inspired action sequences. Shooting seems to take place from both third-person over-the-shoulder views and first-person cockpit views. It also seems as though QTEs spice up the more cinematic battles. Overall, it looks good -- but will it ever see release stateside?[Via PSPHyper]
