Mechwarrior 2 reminds me of the PS1 Beast Wars game.

I remember renting Transmetals from Blockbuster. Disappointment has never been higher.

Was that the fighting game? I only ever played the third person shooter platformer that was one of the worst games I've ever played.
It's a large reason why I hate transformers.
Basically this. The video is amazing to watch solely for seeing Woolie fangirl the fuck out over everything that's happening. It's also interesting to see how games pushed the brink of convoluted control schemes back in the day.

You're not the only one.
My little 7 year old mind (being raised on horror movies and Survival Horror games) thought the trains were possessed by the souls of children, and that they had been trapped for so long that they started to warp the metal on the front of the train to resemble a face.

We're getting a fare hike in NYC PLUS reduced bus service.
Frankly, I want the MTA to implode on itself.

That whole controls thing was actually kinda dumb. I played the game with a old ass Logitech joystick and it controls like a mech game would. The keyboard controls were just bad.
I wasn't quite on that level of being scared.
I wasn't really scared by the faces but rather by the way they were animated.

We're getting a hike here too, still way cheaper then anywhere in Ohio, but people will still bitch and complain.
I was scared to death of claymation or anything resembling that as a child.
It's still creepy.
Hehe. I can't wait for the moment that his mother comes to a match. Ippo is going to kill a dude if he knows his mother is there.

Yeah, it was the "fighting" game.
I really think that for its time this looks pretty impressive. I forgot these types of games even existed. I wonder if there's any real PC equivalents with a more modern day look.

Didn't see Fast 5, so can't comment on that, but Fast 6 is some of the best, dumb fun I've had watching movies in a long while.
Remember that time when
Vin Diesel saved Michelle Rodrigues from dying a gruesome death after getting launched off a flipping tank, off a bridge by climbing on top of his car, crashing it, thus launching himself in the air as well and catching her mid air only to safely land on someones windshield on he other side of the bridge?
Tennattaten. Would invest in a 'flip car' to deal with traffic.
To be fair, I don't think the game was supposed to be played with a controller when it first came out,

That was the sickest shit.
Remember when
The Rock and Vin Diesel tag-team wrestled a guy in a plane's cargo hold that was speeding down a runway?

All I know about that movie is Egoraptor saying it's his favorite movie.
I'm getting goosebumps now
W-What? Ippo? Is that really you?

I always see those games on Steam. Next sale I guess.
Well, kinda, it had controller support built in, and it had this keycard if you had a keyboard
I was going to post that and then decided not to. Weird.
Do you own a mind-reading device?
It's really just goofy and cheesy fun. It's really a movie that you don't think too hard about and enjoy the spectacle.

As much as I dislike Titanfall for being Titanfall, it's really fun to play the mecha part of the matches.
Yo Jman what's up with the framerate on those Mechwarrior GIFs?

The fact that the entire final sequence is pretty much a full wrestling match is the greatest thing I've ever seen.

Off to take my exam. The lowest possible grade I can get is a 67% on the exam to pass the class.

Titanfalls mechs weren't mechs. They were just giant slow soldiers.
I love that fucking movie. I really try and get people to watch it because it's so weirdly good. I don't understand the reviews on, because it actually took creative turns with the source material, but kept faithful to it.
The mechs want you to hang out with them, that's what's up.
We believe in you!
Am I the only one to think that statement is a little presumptuous? Mechs being mechs can literally control however smooth or awkwardly they want by design.
yup that seems about right

Its the ILLUSION of being a mech.
Speaking of Mechs, I wish there was a mecha game for current handhelds
I want Front Mission 5.

Good god I'm so bored this morning. I want to play MH4U but I'm still at the beginning. =(
Play the new Unreal Tournament. Don't think we can get friender games going until private servers are up.
Well you're not going to leave the beginning if you don't play it.

Let's clarify to "arcade mech game" with the joystick handling turning and strafing and aiming, while there's a real static throttle for speed and buttons for each subweapon.
It's really short.
The stereotypical mech is clunky and bulky. I think that's what he's trying to say.
Since you've gotten that far, what's your opinion on itagaki? I like him a lot and is pretty hype to me.
I'm getting goosebumps now

You know what I've realized. I just don't like realistic mechs. I like Super Robots.

You been online yet? I started over with a male character for that sweet, sweet mech armor, but haven't played in a while so I'm currently stuck at HR2.
If you need someone to play with I'd be more than willing to kick some monster butt together.
"Realistic mechs"

I have way too little exposure to the former to say.
Mechas, right?
That's kind of interesting to me. When someone says "mech" and "mecha", you know exactly what to expect.

The hardcore mech nerds want mechs to run like airplanes and fighter jets.
I can see the logic, considering those jobs require a ton of knowledge and simulation experience.
Personally, a mech should be like EVA and Pacific Rim. Everything should feel like a natural extension of the human body.
