"As a random side note, whatever happened to the game Rage Incoming? Also one of my favorite PC games. I still have the disc, though the disc is damaged beyond use ever again"
-Wow... I remember a demo for that game. Ancient history. Looked pretty interesting though!

A mechwarrior movie might be okay. It would have to have a decent storyline and actually follow the games logic. Sort of like the cutscenes included in past mw game titles.

Mw is easy enough with a joystick equipped: or at least it was with mech3. Arrow keys(movement) and Joystick(fire/rotate.) Mechwarrior 4 felt like the more complex game with clunky movement/jumping/etc

Mechwarrior 4 I actually really liked (I admit never tried MW3). You edited a certain snow map right and you basically had knock down drag out spawn on top of each other destruction fest! Kinda like Mech Assault destruction on XBOX Live. That game is also great for how simple and how fun it is. It was one of the games that made XBOX Live! Mech Assault 2 was - eh? NOT being able to choose you're own mech before you started really kinda blew. It should have been a game option to play like that. but micro-crap "shuttering" FASA/Mech(warrior or assault) was just plain stupid on micro-crap's part. guess they have too many ways to make money and lose quality gems in the fold. it's kinda like how they "shuttered" Ensemble Studios.

hey - anyone who made Mech Assault 2 who just might read this - all you had to do to make a killer XBOX 360 game was - keep the first game (don't change the core of the game since it was great - morons), add more mechs, tweak the graphics, add more weapons and/or add some type of customization to which weapons you could use on which mechs, and allow MORE people to play on XBOX Live games for bigger team matches or even FFA matches. it was THAT simple - duh!

Mechwarrior is back! Mechwarrior 2: Mercenaries was the first game I ever bought with my own money. I can't wait!

My only problem with the Mechwarrior reboot is the preview video we have seen. Not nearly epic enough. Where were the blaring trumpets? The badass "all hope was lost until now" scene? I want EPIC for this game! Not "oh hey, we rebooted Mechwarrior."

And... C&C is back. Oh hey, they are doing C&C again.

[citation][nom]Rockstone1[/nom]MechAssault was unrealistic and an insult to my intelligence.[/citation]
Mech Assault was not Mech Warrior of course but yes it was a lot of fun (the first one). Just because you were terrible at it and couldn't play on the big dawgs level doesn't mean it was bad or that it was your intelligence. give youself more credit.
