''Metal Saga'', known in Japan as , is a post-apocalyptic role-playing video game developed by Success and published by Atlus Software and Success. ''Metal Saga'' is the fourth game in the ''Metal Max'' series, and the first to reach the United States. Like previous games in the series, it follows an open, non-linear style of gameplay. The game received a mixed reception for its unconventional gameplay and dated graphics. A sequel titled was released in Japan in 2006 for the Nintendo DS, there are currently no plans for the sequel to get a western release. A mobile phone incarnation of ''Metal Saga'' was also release in Japan in 2007. And a web game called ''Metal Saga New Frontier'' was released in 2010. ==Gameplay== The game mechanics are similar to that of most role-playing video games. Players travel between points of interest on an overworld map, during which point in time they can be attacked by randomly encountered foes. Within towns, players can rest, repair vehicles, sell items, and other typical activities. The "dungeons" in the title are usually caves or abandoned buildings. Such hostile locations are relatively small, with much of their complexity being due to their maze-like nature (and the lack of an auto-mapping feature). Combat is individually turn-based, utilizing a staggered initiative system (e.g., characters on foot are faster than those in tanks). Any canine member of the party acts on his or her own, automatically attacking foes at random. For the remaining characters, players choose among a limited number of actions. While characters do have some skills which can be used during combat, these cost money to use (rather than using a separate mana/skill point pool) and often cannot be used when within a tank. As a result, skills are not necessarily as attractive as in other such games. Although certain weapons are clearly intended to be used against certain foes, characters cannot change arms or armor during combat. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Metal Saga」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
