It's no surprise that, with such a huge fan base in Japan, Gundam Battle Chronicle has already reached phenomenal sales during the first day after its release.

Take away your gravity hammers or Spartan lasers, because the real action is in Namco Bandai's Gundam Battle Chronicles for the PlayStation Portable. Yes, it's another Gundam game, but a beam saber can make a plasma blade look harmless any day. Just look at these gameplay videos and you'll find out what we're talking about.

Like the original anime series, Gundam Battle Chronicles offers hectic action in space. You get to control a badass mech, wield various futuristic beam rifles, and hack away with cool looking swords - what more can you ever wish for?

More after the jump!

Those who yearn for more replayability from their games should be happy with Gundam Battle Chronicle. The latest PSP Gundam game features Chain Missions, where the storyline is altered depending whether the player succeeds or fails certain missions.

The Tragedy in Jaburo scenario was made as an example for the Chain Mission feature: success in the mission will let the player will encounter an enemy Gundam, while defeat will let the pilot sneak into an underground base.

This new feature will mean that PSP gamers can sit with this Gundam game for hours and going back to each mission just to check what happens if they either win or lose the Chain Missions. All in all, this looks like Gundam Battle Chronicle will have lots of replay value in store for the mecha fans.

Gundam fanatics rejoice - if you couldn't get enough of the high-octane mecha-busting joy that the first title of the franchise offered on the PlayStation Portable, Namco Bandai is sending another one your way with Gundam Battle Chronicle.

So what's new this time around? Why, the chance to pilot each and every one of the game's immense armory of legendary mechs, some of which taken from ZZ Gundam, MS Gundam 0083, S Gundam, and Nu Gundam - the pickings amounting to a huge selection of 140 bipedal (and not quite bipedal) machines of destruction.

And you'll need every one of them, if you're to survive the game's 120+ missions that'll take you from the relative safety of terra firma to deep underwater AND outer space. Very good news for us who frequently daydream about one day taking the fight to corrupt space tyrants in our own gundams.
