This is a fantastic game. I am baffled at the reviews people are giving this game! First of all, I honestly didn't notice there was no in- game music untill i read about it. If there was any in- game music, id turn it off. youre to busy listening to directions to care about music. (this game has great voice acting, btw.) the sound effets are great, from the sound of the robots footsteps to all the explosions. the missions are long, and there are 13 of them. the control scheme is perfect. This game isn't too hard or too easy. Its very well balanced. You'll be playing to the end to see all the awsome weapons you get. As for the frame rate, I don't think its bad at all. I was never distracted by a low frame rate. the frame rate stays at 60fps with 1 or 2 enemies on the screen, any more then 2 and it goes to 30fps. but 30 fps isnt bad! the only time it might go under 30fps if there was a ton of explosions at the same time, but that never happened to me. as for the pc version being better, i didnt feel like spending hundreds of dollars to upgrade my pc so it would run good. and just so you know, im not one of those people who thinks EVERY game is fantastic. i did play through this game entirely. i have no reason to give it a higher or lower score then it deserves. my advice is to buy it.

Slave Zero!

It's 500 years in the future. Man and machine are virtually one and the greatest megacity in the world is locked in a brutal war. You are the ultimate saboteur and part of an elite fighting force. Your mission: Steal the largest, most sophisicated biomechanical attack weapon ever designed! 3rd person action at its BEST!

Let me tell yah all! Slave Zero on the ultimate Dreamcast "ROCKS!" Let me start off by saying that this game has to be the BEST designed mech game I have ever played. Good stuff: The graphics are gorgeous. The gameplay is the most rounded seen in a videogame. Cool fast mech action. Addictive multiplayer. Good sound effects.

Bad stuff: No online capabilities. When there is a lot of enemies the framerate slows down to about 30fps instead of standard 60fps inside of other dreamcast games. But there is so much action you hardly notice.

BOTTOM LINE : BUY IT! YOU'LL LOVE IT!

This is such a cool game!

I don't know what the problem is either with the really negative reviewers, but I've been following (and waiting for) this game for the past year+ and it's really good! I am very satisfied and look forward to playing through it a few more times.

The graphic style is dark and gritty and really stylistically cool, the main character Slave Zero is very well animated, as are the enemies and all the Slave Bosses, the city is like something out of Blade Runner or Judge Dredd, very realistic explosions and special effects, and it's cool watching all the cars and people swerve and run away from you. Plus, having all the buildings and bridges around you get destroyed while you're in a firefight with another giant robot is totally cool. The enemy robots dodge and swerve your attacks instead of just sitting there like most games.

The game controls just like you were playing Turok (or Quake), and ran just about as fast (I didn't notice any major choppiness... for those that claim the game gets down to 5 fps, i'd like to know how you got your machine to show that!).

The environmental sound effects are atmospheric and change from area to area... speaking of which, the game has a bunch of different areas as you move through the city and story so the art and enemies change also.

There are no other giant robot games out there like this one! Very unique, fast-paced action, fun!

I like the game. Recommended!

all around fun!

this game is most definately a good game. the graphics may be lacking a little bit but the game is fun. the multiplayer isn't bad either. first of all, i like the idea of upgrading weapons so you never get tired of the same old gun. i also like the way where you can choose between 1st person to 3rd person views, the plot line is also interesting. i also like the idea where you can save the game after each little sub- mission instead of finding some kinda object in the game to save the game on. there is a lot of shooting and action but plenty of ammo so you don't have to stomp or hit your enemies. the game is primarily about a 600 ft. tall robot who is helping the rebels defeat the bad guy and so on.i really enjoyed this game.

This game rocks

I love this game though i'm still only on the first level. It is the funest game that i have on my dreamcast. It is a must buy for those who love action war games. And for the price that I got it at. Well I'll just say this it is worth your ten dollars. If you are intereted in robotics you would probably love this game. This is definitely not a game for wosses that get scared easilly.

Way cool game!

I dont know why the other reviews say this game was terrible. On my opinion, this game is really cool! During the game you get cool weapon upgrades and get to blow up building and cars and even people!(When you shoot a person with a machine gun, they die and fall to the floor and leave a puddle of blood!)In case you didn't know you are a colossal robot tramping through cities blowing up robots! The only thing is that when there is too much action on the screen the graphics get a little choppy. But if you go to options, you can change your view to first person. This way the graphics seem to run smoother. There are not many codes for the game though. And when I tried them they didn't seem to work. But over all, I would give this game 5 stars!

SLAVE TO NO ONE

Slave 0 is awesome!!! Enough said. This game takes place in the future when robots are everywhere. You are a huge robot, that is trying to destroy a mad man's evil plans by destroying his big robots and single-handedly save earth. The games graphics are not great, but not bad, and the controls, though a little complex make the game all the more challenging. I think one of the most interesting aspects of the game is the fact that you have a mostly interactive environment. You can blow up buildings, hurl cars, shoot people, or stomp them (whatever yu prefer). The game has no music, which is a drag, but just hook up a cd player to some audio cords and put those into the input of your t.v., and you can play your own music. All-in-all, GREAT GAME.

The things people say that are wrong don't seem to be there to me. There is no choppy animation. Everthing seems to run smoothly. The controls seem difficult at first but after 5 minutes of play you get it. It controls like Turok and Quake.If you are a mech fan and like blowing stuff up this is a definte bu

Put this on your list of games to buy!

By far, one of the best action shooter games of the year. Awesome mech-warrior/cyborg designs, great graphics, and all-around good fun. Some camera angles can be confusing at times, but there's a simple way to solve that. Go into first-person view mode, cool huh? Plus 1-4 player action makes it an excellent family game.
