Ultraman has been in existence in one form or
another since 1966. That's four decades of
spandex-wearing super heroics from a helmeted
warrior who made strange arm gestures and battled
rampaging monsters. Ultraman made his debut in
Urutora Sakusen Dai-Ichi-Goh which was released on
July 17, 1966. From those early years to the current
day, various Ultramen have taken up the torch to
carry the franchise to new and exciting adventures.
Later this year, the new movie Ultraman Mebius &
Ultraman Brothers makes its theatrical debut on
September 16 in Japan.
Paying homage to Ultraman's history as well as the
upcoming movie, Ultraman Fighting Evolution Zero
features eight Ultramen forms including the original
Urutora, Ultraman Ace, Ultraman Jack, Ultraman Leo,
Ultra Seven, Ultraman Taro, Ultraman Mebius, etc.
The heroes face off against an assortment of
creatures such as Eleking, Baltan, Black King,
Knuckle-seijin, Bakishimu, and Hipporito-seijin. The
action takes place on pseudo 3D battlefields and
follows the rudimentary formula of the PS2 Ultraman
Fighting Evolution games where two fighters face
each other and attack, grapple, and blast away with
special skills. A new system in the PSP version is
the Clock Link System where the scenery changes
depending on the time of day and affects the
fighting capabilities of the combatants. For gamers
who enjoy a little gallery with their action, an
Ultra Reference Guide is included which features the
profiles and images of 50 characters.
