Rating: - Fun for different play styles
I absolutely enjoy this game. In fact, I find myself laughing whenever I get off some really good hits on other mechs.

Very fun, I also have Mechwarrior Trilogy. If you like to piloting 100 ton armored Mechs with enough wepons to level a city, then this is the game for you.

If you get a chance grab a Sidewinde joystick for extra piloting control. 5 stars for fun, the overall fun is 4 stars because Microsoft should have incuded the MekPaks for free.
Rating: - online gamming
this game has great online gamming if you buy this game make sure you go to www.mektek.net and download the mekmatch because the microsoft zone doesn't work anymore, With this you can find online servers. Updates are also available there. When most get this game they did not know about mektek and it is hard to play online without it.
