Special Function: None.

The early VS developed, quite common, not really special but capable of being
customized with weapons on each arm.

Special Functions: Hover - Press A mid-jump to hover. Press A again to cancel.
                   Sliding Dash - Press Y and move your left joystick in any
                                  direction to slide.

Advanced version of the GTT-01, capable of in air mobility and is widely used
at this time.


Special Functions: Double Jump - Press A mid jump to double jump.
                   Long Jump - Press Y to start a long jump and Y again to
                               cancel it.
                   Smoke Screen - Press X to lay down a smoke screen.

A great VS all around, much quicker and more all around mobility then other
VS's and developed with military use in mind it is a pretty good Vs to use.


Special Functions: Transform - Press Y to transform from VS to Bike.
                               A to accellerate when in bike form, X to brake
                               and reverse and jump boost is LB (gives you a
                               small boost and a small jump).

A weak, but neat VS. Though it can only hold one weapon and isn't very strong
it can change into a bike for a quick getaway.


Special Functions: Transform - Press Y to transform from VS to Tank.
           Cannon - LT in Tank mode.
                   Drill - RT in Tank mode.
                   Drill Dash - X while in tank mode to perform a Drill Dash.

An upgraded Nevec VS. A quadraped compared to the other VS's which are Bipedial

massive damage.

Special Functions: Hover - Press A mid-jump to hover and A again to cancel.
                   Dash - Press Y to activate your dash ability, then move
                          around with the left joystick.
                   VS Saw - Press X to attack with the VS Saw.

This is the first VS you pilot, but comes into play more commonly in the latter
part of the game, though they don't have the saw, but are pretty much the same
all around. They have a lot more maneuverability as well as their jump height
is a bit better then some other VS's

Special Functions: Fly - Has the ability to Fly, Press Y to ascend and again to
                         cancel the ascent. Press A to descend and again to
                         cancel the descent.
                   Laser Vulcan - Press X to fire the Laser Vulcan.
                   EMF Blade - Press RT or LT to attack with the EMF blade.

This is the ultimate VS, the deign allows the person with the correct
harmonizer to use it to it's full potential. It has dual EMF blades which
cause tons of damage as well as a Laser Vulcan, which also does a lot of damage
and it can fly!

LP-7 Weapons
===============================================================================

On Foot:

Machine Gun - Quite common throughout the game, pretty much the base weapon.
              Very good damage, easy aim and not too bad of recoil. Ammo
              is plentiful. Very good weapon to keep with you throughout the
              game.

Rifle - A nice weapon all around, although ammo isn't as readily available, but
        it is a very nice weapon. Easy to snipe multiple targets and most shots
        are one hit kills, at least to Snow Pirates. A decent main weapon and
        secondary weapon for wide open areas (or areas where there are a mass
        of enemies in the distance.)

Shotgun - Simple weapon, though I really don't like it much because of it not
          being a good range weapon, it does come in handy in smaller areas
          with a lot of enemies and it is a good secondary weapon and ammo
          doesn't seem to be a big issue.

Rocket Launcher - Simple, strong, and most of the time when you find one Rocket
                  Launcher, there will be a few more down the road so ammo
                  doesn't seem to be much of an issue when you find one.
                  I usually will swap it out, blow stuff up, and return to my
                  original weapon.

Energy Gun - A nifty weapon, unlimited ammo, though it does deplete your T-ENG
             every shot, but it does home to an extent as well as offer
             a boosted shot if you hold down RT.

Plasma Gun - Quite a nice weapon, pretty much like the Energy Gun, but more fit
             for long range sniping. Much better then the Rifle and since ammo
             is unlimited, quite better.

Hand Grenade - The base grenade, quite common so very rare you will run short
               and it gets the job done.

Disc Grenade - Quite nifty, thrown like a frisbee and with the ability to throw
               then shoot the grenade it can prove to be a bit more useful.

Gum Grenade - I really don't like these much, they take longer to blow up,
              their range is much shorter, and generally are harder to kill
              enemies with. Though they do prove useful when fighting a VS
              since you can get 3-4 grenades on before they blow up.

Plasma Grenade - Not too powerful, but its like a miniature EMT. Proves
                 to be useful when fighting a VS since it can render it
                 harmless.

Dummy Grenade - Though only for online, it proves to be my favorite grenade
                very useful and it takes the shape of a human player and comes
                up on the radar as one too.


Virtual Suit:

Gatling Gun - Pretty much the base weapon for the VS. Powerful, convenient,
              and usually there’s a good amount of ammo lying around.

Rocket Launcher - Quite powerful and useful. Good for generally anything from
                  big to small, though I would say the larger targets deserve
                  the rockets more.

Laser Rifle - Pretty much like a VS version of the Energy Gun, uses T-ENG to
              fire and allows you to build up the shot for maximum damage.

Shotgun -  A nice weapon all around, though again the Shotgun isn't normally
           a long range weapon, it does still do a lot of damage to the
           smaller targets from medium range and up close it packs a punch.

Grenade Launcher - A nifty weapon for destroying groups of targets, launches
                   a grenade which then explodes into multiple grenades making
                   for a nice wide area explosion.

EM Laser - Pretty much the upgrade to the Laser Rifle, high power, nice range
           a slower attack speed but much more worth it. Also renders a VS
           immobale for a second, like a Plasma Grenade.

Homing Laser - Easy to use Homing weapon, able to select up to 4 targets, or
               1 target 4 times for maximum damage.

LP-9 Review
===============================================================================

Honestly, this game has received much flak, hype, whatever. I like it, I am not
going to say it's the best game, but I had fun with it. It's not some kind of
common storyline, it has its own depth to it. The music and graphics are great,
I have no idea why they are saying these graphics aren't great. I honestly
think they are really good, sure they aren't as great as like Gears of War, but
honestly, they are still better then your average game.

The multiplayer proved to be fun, yet can be a little laggy for some folks, but
they just need a better connection :P

Overall, I found this game to be worth my $60, sure it is probably a tad short,
but a lot of titles are now, but the replay on it is pretty decent, plus the
multiplayer offers hours of fun.

Honestly, I'd give it maybe a 9/10, great graphics, unique gameplay and style,
has a lot of elements we haven't seen before, or too often. Throw in some fun
multiplayer and music, you have a good game.
