Armored Core gunning for next-gen

Sega announced today that they'll be releasing the reigning king of giant robot combat Armored Core 4 on both 360 and PS3 in Spring 2007. Hopefully, the nimble laser-sword wielding mechs of Armored Core will make a nice counterpoint to the lumbering juggernauts of Chromehounds. It's not that we didn't dig Chromehounds, but we can't ignore the complaints we've heard that the robots in it were slow and cumbersome - an assessment we're inclined to agree with, in hindsight.

We happened to dig up this video from the Armored Core main site, but it will only work if you have Windows Media Player set up as your default player for streaming video. If you don't, there's no need to fret, we'll have it up on our site very soon.
