"Brings dishonor to the Macross universe"

I played this game once. For 5 minutes. I have never touched it since (I dont own a dreamcast, so I cant anyways). But this game is so bag, I can't describe it. After playing games like Macross VFX-2 for the ps1, I didnt think this game was the sequel to that amazing game. It plays like crap, looks like it was rushed 1 year before it was supposed to be relesaed, and the only faithflu thing it still captures (kinda) is the sound form its prequel. Otherwise, this game made me sick. The story even sucks (I rad bits and peices of it on the internet, cause I got no clue on how to read japanesse), but its this weird story with Max and Milla, and this Zendradi(thats the aliens in Macross for you) named Moa, and thas how the name of the game came to be (M3 - Max, Milla and Moa). But it doesnt matter. cause you shouldnt get this game unless in a glass case in your Macross collection.

Graphics: 2

The graphics look worse than games that come out now for the ps1. And thats preety bad. And theyre also blurry like the n64. Theres a lot of fog, which is treally unescessary, and the models are really bland. The graphics are only really a notch above the ps1 Macross titles. The opening movei is kinda nice, but its only a movie.

Sound: 6

This is the only good part of the game. The music is good, but why all hte pilots screaming at you all the time? otherwise, it didnt make me want to turn off the game.

Gameplay: 0

Ok, this game is really bad. The control is so horribly unresponsive, it makes me sick. it takes a long time from the time u press left on the pad, to the time the robot turns left. There are only 2 weapons: machine guns, and lock on missiles. and get this: YOU ONLY GET 2 MISSILES!!!!!
In macross VFX-2, you get like 300, plus other weapons like bombs, cannons and chaffs. Oh, and hear the best part: all of the missions are timed. You have to balze through them like a madman, and u dont know what you are doing. And, you only get 3 fighters. And theyre all the same, except with different paint jobs. Just dont bother, k?

Fun? NO! NO! NO!

If you buy the game, just do me one favour? Dont open the cd case. Ever. The cd may just jump out, find itself in your Dreamcast, and play. Its evil. Its possesed. Put it in a safe. That way you can be safe.

Import? NO! NO! NO!

Unless you want it as a collectors item, its not worth it. Its just really bad, and youll feel bad by just playing it. Then you might wanna kill yourself for spending a lot of money buying this game. I played it at a freinds house, and i havent heard from him since. Dont end up like him. Stay away
