I disagree with you TSS. Sami is sooo 2 games ago. you want Hot? look to none other then: Lash! Lol, just kidding. Sami is still the hottest CO around. seriously, she could walk up to any BH unit, show them her b*****s and they would commit suicide.

roflmfao! But Ya Lash did get hotter. xD

I heard it was too easy and that the story line was boring. Well it is the easiest of the 3 game. lol It's proably easier because there's more stuff you need to do.
Mark how is the game?

I couldn't beat the campaign at first, but then I learned all the tricks to it:

-Sasha's Market Crash
-Grit...yeah
-Javier on tower-heavy maps
-Eagle + Sami = INSTANT HQ CAPTURE LOL
-Eagle + Sonja = VIRTUAL 4 FREE TURNS LOL (3 from tag power and the pre-emptive counters from Sonja)

But yeah, the campaign of AWDS was pretty poorly designed. Oh look, I lost just because I lost one little silo...meh. Let the old man become immortal. What's he gonna do, kill Hachi?

The issues the good guys have with Von Bolt wouldn't be him having immortality. It's what he is doing to get immortality. Which is robbing the land to its demise via the Black Obelisks.

As for my Likes & Dislikes about AWDS? I have too many dislikes to likes about AWDS. Some of the non-remixed music is among the likes, but......there's just so much in the gameplay of AWDS that is messy.

The Dual-Screen idea was pretty good though. CStrife007 and I had fun with it. It's good, but if you want something balanced I'd turn the CO powers off. Or play one CO per player.

Tagging? Yes, it's good but Tag Powers are another story. I like CO switching, it's just the whole "Stall forever and get 2/3/virtual 4" turns is crap.

And what's with certain combinations getting powered up just for storyline reasons? Ideally they shouldn't do that at all. Really...all it does is support already-broken pairs.

Also, the War Room and Normal Campaigns are much easier. Aren't these two supposed to be challenging in the first place? Spann Island is still vulnerable to *HER*. And they still haven't figured out that everyone preferred when the Tutorial was SEPARATE from the Campaign, like in AW1. AW2 was inferior to AW1 in many ways like that.

I'd go more in-depth on this, but *SOMEONE* already has.

And I have a stinking suspiscion who that someone is. MKDH, know this: I saw the review.

And really, they should THANK Von "so not the Don" Bolt for turning the place into a wasteland. More sandstorms means less Grit.

Hmm. I forgot about the uses of the Nintendo DS itself. I guess it's hard to remember redeeming stuff about AWDS considering stuff like broken tags and maps that are ridiculously variable in difficulty by the likes of choosing COs. (Like Megaloplis.) And it hasn't helped that I was stuck in very rough circumstances when the game came out and when I got it. (I'm out of the circumstances, thank God. But I'm still feeling the lashing. And the aftereffects aren't exactly welcome. And I was in them for what on my own reasons? Some crush that started some 8 years ago?) So yeah, I may get irrational about my issues over AWDS.

Of course, I think it's also stupid when the game becomes about pretty much abusing cheap tricks just for some wallpaper.

Dual Screen had somewhat faulty execution though, especially considering what you said. The top screen's outcome wouldn't affect anything on the bottom screen if COPs were off. -_- Well, maybe via D2Ds, if it were possible to turn off the COPs but not the D2Ds. Either way, Dual Screen would have been a good idea if handled correctly.

A shame top screen air battles were campaign only. Then again, they'd probably be pretty much about Fighter abuse.

As for them thanking Mr. Bolt? Too bad the AN COs don't realize they're just in a story. Or that COs on their own side are broken and need to be nerfed. Then again, the former would probably not touch them and they're the same people who made some of the situational junk, that Black Hole would reverse engineer on an expectation to improve their "situation", if you can call having a CO numbers advantage and a workable intelligence advantage that. Plus sandstorms are weather. They're not going to be in every match, and they also hinder the opponents of Grit.

Hmm...I see. Meanwhile, a search revealed a few things. And brought up a few memories about somebody else along the way if you can believe it.

Enough about stupid storylines, let's talk about some of the campaign maps! yay

Pincer Sex? Sami/Sonja exploit=win on DAY F***ING THREE!

Omens and Signs (of stupidity)? Amazing no one has made a glib remark about the TWO USELESS BOMBERS THAT THE COMPUTER HAS ON THE TOP FRONT!!!!!

Crystal Crapola? Well, it's not vulnerable to an Eagle (Or in this case, Max) Right Side Bomber. More like a Power-of-Money'd Rocket from the left. (Used Sasha & Colin on the blue team)

F**k Amok? EXP mine for all COs, especially on Hell Campaign!

That map with Clone Andy? (Can't remember name) Gee, why couldn't they clone Hachi? Then they'd win for sure. BTW, the only reason they tried cloning again was to give us players a variety of enemies to fight against. Unlike AW2. Same five bad guys there. +1 respect point for AWDS. Total: 49 out of 100.

YAY Clone Andy Wooot! But seriously I would defently prefer BH andy in aw1. At least Eagle helped owning him.

Lash owns your soul. Sweetest little lady around.
I'm kind of neutral on most of the new things added on. The tag powers and such can definitely tear your enemies a new ass and a half, but at the same time I could swear it breaks the game in half, much like Megatanks. Just pack an APC with 'em and they can kill virtually anything, if that APC has an Infantry or Mech with it to take over cities for it to regroup any lost HP. Seriously, the only thing to worry about with that monstrous unit is oozium. And rockets and the like, of course. Point is, when you can all but obliterate a squad of Neotanks, something's freakin' WRONG. The combat mode thing is a pretty pleasant little distraction, although rather boring after the first run-through, there being little difference between COs and the like. Oh, HP? More damage? Taking over cities faster. In the end, it doesn't really matter, in all honesty.

The campaign kind of confused me at times. Some of the earlier missions more or less TORE ME A NEW ASS, and yet later on it was more or less "lol your ded nao". I don't know, maybe I just improved over the course of my excessive game rebooting and the like, but yeah. I like the new outfit options, though. Sonja looks adorable in her casual clothing. X3 Jugger kind of annoys me, though. Although he's cute in that lumbering silly person kind of way, he's a carbon copy of Flak, which annoys me. Koal, too. Couldn't Intelligent think of any new CO powers? Honestly.
