what to do when your connection sucks balls all morning
« on: April 24, 2009, 11:21:56 PM »
rediscovered Mechwarrior Mercenaries this morning   8)
released in 2002, but still cool game. Too bad they stopped making sequels after MW 4, Black Knight and Mercenaries (2000, 2001 and 2002)

Quote
Developer FASA Interactive was to follow up on the success of MechWarrior 4 (which went onto spawn a number of expansions and spin-offs despite MechWarrior 5 being confirmed soon after the fourth game's release.) The franchise unfortunately never saw the fifth game, as it was formally announced as cancelled by the developer and its publishing partner Microsoft in 2003.

Nice find!  Not a huge mech fan, but there is something about giant killer battle suits that captures the imagination.

I was a big mechwarrior fan till I realised everyone elses idea of fun was to pick a mech with jump jets load it up with long range weapons and hide behind a hill only jumping up to snipe people. That got old really fast. Still even the single player version of mercs was fun.

It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.
