IGPX TIE Game

IGPX premiered as the 2003 Total Immersion Event. This TIE combined the microseries with an online mecha-tactics simulator. The player can choose to be either Team Suzaku or Team Sledge Mama. The game claims that winning three out of five matches will result in winning the tournament, but I've barely even won a single match let alone three. So, I have no idea what will happen should the player actually win that many.

This game could not be recovered from the Internet Archive. The problem is that the game is spread out over multiple files and loads them all just to play a single match. This is in contrast to Intruder and Lockdown in which each level is its own file. The IA's webcrawler simply can't collect these secondary files. Trapped in Hyperspace has the same problem.

However, the game was still available in nearly full-form on some of Toonami's international websites. The only items missing were some "Win/Lose .JPGs" that crashed the game if it couldn't find them. One user on the X Bridge Forum did have at least one .JPG file, but the rest had to be replaced with bland images.

I don't know why IGPX went from a combat themed anime to racing. The original version always seemed better.
