Zone of Enders
--------------
Story
-----
The population has exploded, has grown steadily worse,
and natural resources are drying up. Unable to continue life on
such a small planet as Earth, mankind pushes out into space. The
Moon and Mars are incapable of supporting the entire population,
so man eventually extends its reach to Jupiter. A torus space
colony called Antilia is built at the L5 Lagrangian point of
Jupiter and Europa to support mining operations. Man's farthest
outpost in its sphere of existence, Antilia houses approximately
100,000 residents involved in mining and transport. It also
serves as a development outpost for BAHRAM, the
organization of the Martian anti-Earth state, Vascilia County.
Two games in Hideo Kojima's PlayStation 2 'Zone of the Enders'
Mecha franchise come to the PS3 in a single collection.

Antilia is mankind's farthest outpost, and allies itself
neither with nor against Earth. Since Nereidum Universal
Technology (NUT) and BAHRAM lost their development outpost during
the Deimos Incident, they see Antilia as a perfect rtunity to
establish an R&D facility for Orbital Frames, humanoid weapons
surpassing LEV mecha. Their two most advanced Orbital Frames,
Jehuty and Anubis, conceal incredible offensive capabilities plus
a certain something of even greater importance.
Gameplay
--------
What if there were an action game that let you dart through the
air in any direction? This was the inspiration behind mecha anime
simulator Zone of the Enders. The "Orbital Frame," as the game's
primary mecha is known, does everything that might be expected of
a humanoid machine - grabbing enemies, unleashing a whirlwind of
blade strikes up close, and firing off s from a distance, all
while spiraling freely in the open air. With its seamless
transitions between omnidirectional battles and story sequences,
the game is like diving into a mecha anime where the e of
outer space lies in the player's hands.
Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner
----------------------------------
Story
-----
Mankind expands into the depths of space in a search for new
land. The terraformed Mars is home to colonies from various Earth
countries, and mankind's push continues on to Jupiter. However,
with new resources and new territory come new problems. Mars
consists of 16 counties, which are equivalent to the "states"
comprising many Earth nations. Martians and the colonists of the
Jovian system are ruled by Earth with an iron fist. Such people
living on the frontier of civilization are called "Enders". An
irreparable rift forms between those bound by the chains of
Earth's gravity and those floating free in space, and over time
the hostility between the governors and the governed grows.
In the course of exploring space, man discovers a new ore called
Metatron. It gains attention not only for its use as an energy
source but also for a multitude of other purposes. However, the
incredible energy it provides also comes to be used for
designs, as anti-Earth forces on Mars employ it to secretly
develop the giant humanoid weapons known as Orbital Frames. The
Orbital Frames possess overwhelming mobility compared to Earth's
LEVs, similar humanoid weapons. Once unable to compete against
Earth's sheer numbers, Martian anti-Earth forces finally have a
weapon with which they can fight back.
Gameplay
--------
Released two years after the first Zone of the Enders, The 2nd
Runner upgrades the mechanics of the original in every way. Its
intuitive controls make each action even more exhilarating than
before. Anime and CG come together to create a visual style like
no other, and the stage layouts and story offer a nonstop
entertainment experience. The game also boasts incredible sound
effects, a pumping soundtrack, memorable voice performances, and
topnotch production values in every detail. This is the next
level of high speed robot action.
