Your Favorite Mech Game

Mechwarrior 4 Series

1: Mechwarrior 4 Mercineries PC
2: Mechwarrior 4 Vengeance PC
3: Mechwarrior 4 Black Knight PC Expansion pack

For those who are new to this series, or too young to know this series is mainly on PC although I do own a PS1 version of Mechwarrior 2. This series is a first person shooter that lets you take control of a huge war machine called a Mech. you shoot other war machines called Mechs in 3D or first person and or even in third person if you choose.

It is basically another game about future war simulation with a story line. Especially the Mechwarrior 4 series. MW4 Vengeance, and Black Night PC Expansion has the best story out of all of the PC versions I've played, in my opinion. Mechwarrior 4 Vengeance and it's expansion pack is worth adding to your retro PC collection also in my opinion

I highly recommend for all Mech gameing fans "Mechwarrior 4 Vengeance" and Mechwarrior 4 Black Knight and Mech Warrior 4 Mercenaries defiantly MW4 Mercenaries. :)

Mechwarrior is not that console game that came with the massive control station

I'm currently playing Front Mission 3, and it's pretty awesome. A bit slow at times, but still awesome.

Others included Xenogears, Vanguard Bandits, Zone of the Enders, and the Little Tail Bronx games such as Tail Concerto and Solatorobo: Red the Hunter.

My used to love Xenogears and the Front Mission series, but recently I discovered the Assault Suit(s) Leynos/Valken series and these games became my favorites.
But I have a question: does the Metal Gear franchise qualify as a series of Mech Game for you guys? If it does, that is easily my favorite!

Aside from all the great RPGs with mecha involved, I really like the Armored Core series. The go to mecha games for me.

So much fun. More jump-in play, less simulation. And that's what I want. I just want to blow shit up. And this game has a lot of destructible shit to blow up!

You also get a lot of different mechs to pilot throughout the campaign.

Chromehounds xbox360 was my favorite. You can only play the training missions now because it was online only

I want to give a shout out to Ring of Red. It's a sloooooow game, but it's got some good ideas. And big ol' mechs.

Zone of the Enders and Zone of the Enders 2

I have recently been itching badly to play the Mechwarrior games, specifically 2, 3, 4, and the commander series, and their respective expansions. These games have always fascinated me and while they lacked some of the depth that the PC counterparts had, I LOVED the arcade cockpit pods they had during the 90s. My local D&B had about 10 of them and they were one of my favorite things about D&B. If it wasn't so expensive to play a round in them i would have easily played it way more growing up.

Armored Core 2 for the PS2.
I remember so much about that game that I REALLY shouldn't XD

MechAssault 1 & 2 on Xbox (Some of the most fun I have ever had on Xbox Live at launch)
BattleTech: The Crescent Hawk's Inception on PC
Steel Battalion on Xbox (Not the most fun but sitting there behind all those controllers, switches, toggles and pedals is quite the experience)


The rest is all rather generic and didn't really make much of an impression on me.

AC3 is the game that I came here to post about. I was obsessed with that game for a while. I couldn’t wait for AC4....and I remember being disappointed with it. That was the end of my brief mech game fascination.

I just Started Playing Front Mission 3 and I'm loving it! Other than that I really enjoy the Armored Core series but haven't played any of them past PS2 games. Also MechWarrior is fun but I need to delve into that series more.
