What's the best way to get caught up on playing this series?
I've only played Armored Core 1. I'd love to replay it if it got remastered, but early PS1 3D would be tough to go back to at this point. Tremendous game though.
I'd like to play AC2, 3, 4, and 5 before 6 comes out. Figure I've got about a year on that. Any crucial or worthy spinoffs I should also play? Any remasters or superior versions?
What'd really be nice is if they released a collection for modern consoles. It looks like I'll need to dust off the PS2 and PS3 for all of these.
Also what's the difference between Armored Core 3 and Silent Line: Armored Core 3? Is SL a sequel/part two of AC3, a definitive version, or what?
