	AllRPG.com - Custom Robo - Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Each robo is made up of five main parts - body, gun, bomb, pod and legs - each of which are rated from one to five on five different attributes, such as attack, speed and homing ability; save for legs, which only affect specific robo abilities.
		The knockdown meter empties as a robo is attacked, and when it is diminished, the robo falls and is susceptible to further assault.
		Certain choices may allow a robo to be faster or fortify it with defence, but a poor down rating will cause that robo to be knocked down more often, and have a hard time dealing with being attacked.

	Gamerz-Edge - Custom Robo Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Robos only take orders from the first commander that ever made eye contact with the retinal scanner associated with it – so early on, you will come across your very own prototype robo, the Ray 01, which you will be able to control for the remainder of the game in countless battles.
		In Custom Robo, you can’t do either, so you’re often forced backward away from your foe, which requires you to either resort to effective distance attacks (which the CPU seems to be much better with) or try to make your way back toward them again.
		Custom Robo certainly was a good idea – and the developers apparently wasted no time loading as many parts and goodies into the game as they could.

	Inside Pulse v2 .::. Review: Custom Robo (GC)
		Custom Robo's cast of characters are a pathetic bunch, and the dialogue they get is really as bad as humanly possible.
		The customization is a nice touch as well, as few mech games out there can provide you with the high level of individuality that Custom Robo gives you in terms of designing your mech from the parts you have.
		Custom Robo fails the key tests when it matters, and unless you're a diehard mech-gamer it is truly not worth the time of day.

		Nintendo is contributing to this hot-button election year issue with Custom Robo, an action RPG of sorts that allows you to customize little robots and bring them into real-time battle.
		Custom Robo is a skill-based game, but the only truly necessary skill is the ability to hit the fire buttons as often as possible.

	Custom Robo (cube: 2004): Reviews
		A game with this much customization and apparent depth is sure to have its fans, and the extent to which you'll enjoy Custom Robo largely depends on your willingness to overlook the simplicity of the story mode and sink your teeth into the somewhat repetitive battles.
		Custom Robo is truly rapturous, refreshing and rambunctious; a title to be strongle recommended to any of the world's plethora of avid "collect and battle" enthusiasts, whose time and money could not be better spent.
		Custom Robo is a fast paced melee fighter with the action and gameplay of a good game, but the stroyline of a crappy game.

	Custom Robo - GameCube Review
		Custom Robo takes place in a city on a futuristic world, where small toys called Robos are a fixture in every household.
		Custom Robo goes on at great length to describe all of its strategic nuances, but I found that jumping around the arena and hammering on the A button (to shoot the gun) got me through about 90% of the battles in the story mode.
		Custom Robo does attempt to make up for the lack of voice by presenting still anime-esque portraits next to each line of text and give each character a different text “mumble”, a la Animal Crossing, but the result is that it still feels like an anachronism, and a bad one at that.

		Custom Robo has been some of Nintendo's most popular Japanese game licenses, and gamers have eagerly awaited their release in the US for a long time.
		Due to the huge amount of combinations of possible robos you can create, as well as the battle modes and the structure of the single-player modes, I could see someone spending quite a bit of time with this game to perfect their robo.
		Overall, Custom Robo is a very enjoyable game, and I had quite a bit of fun with it.

	Custom Robo :: GameCube :: Review :: DreamStation.cc
		The concept behind Custom Robo is described fairly accurately in the name; players acquire many different robos as well as a multitude of parts which can be used to create a personalized fighter.
		As for the customization aspect, there are dozens of robos with unique abilities to acquire and choose from, each able to equip 3 different kinds of weapons and a set of legs.
		Once customization becomes a significant part of the game, battles are more varied and more entertaining, making the rest of story mode much more worthwhile and spicing up a normally mediocre experience with good gameplay.
