Digital-X Fallout (デジタルエックスフォールアウト) is a 3D action-fighting game developed and published by Gamesoft for the Arcades in 2000. The sequel to Digital-X, it allows players to take control of giant humanoid robots. It never received a console port due to the arcade system's superior software.
Gameplay[]
Battles take place mostly on a flat 3D plane, with buildings and other terrain features scattered around. Destroying the terrain (by attacking or walking through them) releases power-ups, which include three weapons (vary between each character/Cyberex), armor or life powerups, and the Hyperex powerup, which increases the power of your Cyberex's attacks, and may also unlock additional abilities or moves.
Like with the first Digital-X, this game also features the rearrangement of mechs, parts, and options allowing the player to create a Cyberex of their own preference. However, during battles, players can change the formation of their Cyberex by initiating the Charge Switch, which takes about as much of the player's special bar as their Final Combo, resetting the gauge.
Synopsis[]
During the events of Delta Cross 4, a computer scientist known as Finikus has developed a better version of the previous supercomputer that went rogue, known as the Dream Machine. He even ensured that with its high-level security programs, it will not cause anymore accidents. However. Finikus went missing a month after the unveiling of Dream Machine and soon after, it launched a program that enabled every electronic appliance to form a domain known as the "Dream Library." When reports came about the Dream Library, the Cyberex pilots must rise again to destroy it.
