AceHigh:
Before I say anything, let me make myself clear: I am a fan of Mechwarrior games and any other games that have bipedal weapon platforms as it seems to be a sci fi culture from the west. I am not touching any Japanese Mecha games. However I believe that people are not using the word mecha to indicate the jap. version of this sci fi and let's keep it this way.

TMR(Space)N, to one of your questions: a new Mechwarrior game is made for Xbox and PC called "Mechwarrior reboot". The reboot part indicates going back to the timeline of Mechwarrior 1 game, so I guess not so many awesome clan mechs to play with. Also they are supposed to be done with the game already but ran into some legal trouble with another company that claims that their mechs look to much like their own ones.

Yeah, I am waiting for a new Mechwarrior game, because although this indie game looks nice, it looks like a 15 ton mech at best, I want a proper 100 ton assault mech that can tower over buildings and PPCs and LRMs, not just a large caliber machine gun.

Anyway take a look at this mod for Crysis: Living Legends

Muk666:
the game looks pretty cool but I would prefer third person view

You mean this legal trouble? If the game was really done, that mech would be out of the game and a new one put in... but it's been 2 years since then and NO NEW NEWS has come out about the game. I loved playing Mechwarriors 4, but gosh darn it, why has there been no new mech games whatsoever? I'm thinking that Mechwarrior 5 (or the reboot, unless it's two different projects) is dead. Hawken seems like the only thing in sight for mech fans. I agree, the mechs look very small in comparison to Mechwarriors' (which I prefer the 100 ton vs 15 ton) hulking monsters of mechs.

It's downloadable, with some nice maps, it's mech combat, and I can probably mod it? I'll take what I can get.

BTW: Ace, you didn't like Chromehounds? That was big big mechs, or did you not like that there were quad-pedal/hover mechs as well in the game?

There is an option to do third person. There are videos on youtube of the standard combat.

That game is apparently Xbox exclusive and I am not going to play a game so simplified that you can use a console pad to control a giant mech.

My credo is: Consoles are for faggots.

EDIT: seriously, check out this game play video. about time to install Crysis and that mod :)
