* ''VideoGame/TechRomancer'' is pretty much Capcom's love letter to the HumongousMecha anime genre and that the fans of said genre should waste no time in checking this game out, for ''Tech Romancer'' gives you the ultimate chance and opportunity to control [[{{Expy}} expies]] of such classic anime robots, including ''Anime/MazingerZ'', ''Series/{{Ultraman}}'', ''Franchise/{{Gundam}}'', and ''Anime/{{Macross}}''. Aside from the robots, you also have a memorable and unforgettable cast of characters, a few of them being based on characters of the HumongousMecha anime genre, such as Junpei (a [[Anime/MazingerZ Koji Kabuto]] {{Expy}}), Simon (a CompositeCharacter of [[Anime/{{Macross}} Maximilian Jenius and Roy Focker]]), and Shadow Red (a [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam Char Aznable]] {{Expy}}, who ironically and fittingly is voiced by [[Creator/ShuichiIkeda Char's original voice actor]]). With a kickass opening that truly gets you quite pumped up and very ready for the action, tight controls that enables you to handle your mecha with ease, a plethora of special attacks including the devastating [[DesperationAttack Final Attack]] for each mecha, an amazing soundtrack which definitely fits with the atmosphere of the game, remarkable artwork for both the characters and the mechas, and finally a UsefulNotes/SegaDreamcast-exclusive unlockable short anime opening which makes you ''really wish'' that ''Tech Romancer'' did have an [[TheAnimeOfTheGame actual anime series]] or at the very least an [[{{OVA}} OVA special]], ''Tech Romancer'' is undoubtedly one of Capcom's hidden fighting game gems and that the fans of both fighting games and mecha anime should definitely check this one out.

Up To Eleven is being dewicked.


* ''VideoGame/AsurasWrath''. Just everything about ''VideoGame/AsurasWrath''. Say what you want about the short length and rather basic gameplay, but this game has SerialEscalation to levels never before seen in a game of it's genre, manages to keep immense suspense with it's episodic nature and manages to make an Awesome interactive anime, with some of the best used ActionCommands and [[PressXToNotDie Quick Time Events]] [[Tropers/{{Demongodofchaos2}} This troper]] has ever seen in his life. It's just an amazing experience and really SugarWiki/NeedsMoreLove, as it somehow manages to [[UpToEleven COMPLETELY SURPASS]] ''VideoGame/{{Bayonetta}}'' in ridiculousness and scope of the action. Not to mention, Asura himself manages to be a much more likable character than [[VideoGame/GodOfWar Kratos]] could ever be. Seriously, if you love Anime and Manga, as well as their tropes, try to buy at full price if you can. It won't disappoint you, especially if your a fan of Creator/CyberConnect2.

* ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry''. The {{Camp}}, cheese and {{Narm}} of the one-liners form part of the series' charm, with the rest being the OTT action. Yes, there are severe CutscenePowerToTheMax issues, but there's still plenty you can do with the combat system, especially with the refined systems in the third and fourth games. Pulling off a complex combo - or watching someone do so - never gets old. The original effectively brought free-flowing fighter-style combat to the 3D era. This party's getting crazy!

* ''VideoGame/StreetFighter IV'' is mega-win. It takes everything that has made ''SF'' the definition of the 2D fighting genre and adds to it. Add to that the fact that you can fight online, and the kickass soundtrack, and you have the total package.

* '''VideoGame/DeadRising2;''' Imagine the 3-day system of VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaMajorasMask, combined with a ton of [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome bad-ass]] and [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments touching]] moments all during a CrazyAwesome ZombieApocalypse in a Vegas rip-off with tons of materials to make some amazing combo weapons! '''I LOVE THIS GAME!'''

Due to excessive misuse, Getting Crap Past the Radar is on-page examples only until 01 June 2021


* VideoGame/BreathOfFireII. Full. freaking. stop. Not only was the first game [[@/ThatOneGuyNamedX This Troper]] played, it was one of the most tearjerkingly awesome ones too. The setting, the characters, the surreal amount of [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar Crap that got Past the Radar]]... is delightfully beautiful. and SugarWiki/NeedsMoreLove, too. Damn you, Creator/{{Capcom}} for terminating the series'

* It is not discussed as often as other action games, but the ''Franchise/{{Onimusha}}'' series, especially the [[VideoGame/OnimushaDawnOfDreams fourth game]], has a special place for at least one troper. Enjoyable, but often challenging combat, just the right amount of cheese in the writing, epic storylines, a sense of camaraderie among the cast (even when they are stuck in different time periods), the great music, and some truly heartbreaking moments. It is truly a tragedy that after the sequel hook at the end of the fourth game, no actual sequel seems to be coming out anytime soon.
