Armored Core 2: Another Age

Armored Core 2: Another Age is a mecha third-person shooter video game in the Armored Core series, developed by FromSoftware, which also published it in Japan, for the Playstation 2 in 2001. A necessary move in the government's eyes, needed to keep both the corporations and the situation on Mars in check. While there is virtually no storyline there are 100 separate missions that make up the mass of the game, the largest Armored Core title to date, and each mission plays out in a specific area of the world map screen that would reappear in following AC titles down the road. Also of note is that for the first time in the Armored Core series, analog controls are supported.
