Anyone play these? I remember back in the ol' PC "MechWariors" days (or even Ultrabots, if you wanna get obscure).

Anyone play Mecha games these days? What's the best/most fun to play?

Chromehounds _was_, but the servers all got shut down.

You're left with Armored Core 4 and Armored Core: For Answer.

This is a genre the MS and other developers really need to do something about.

Armored Core 5 is coming out this year in Japan. No word on a western release. Trailer.

Don't forget the new Mechwarrior reboot either. Though it still doesn't have a release date of any kind.

Mech games have been few and far between and the ones that have been released haven't been that great (I'm looking at you Dynasty Warriors: Gundam).

I thought MechAssault 1 and 2 for the original Xbox were actually pretty fun. Kind of surprised there hasn't been a third one for the 360...

Well, MS did close down the FASA studio...

That looks awesome (if it actually looks like that without pre-rendering).

Kinda terrible ejection system though, if it's just going land you right on top of your mech that goes kablooey like a nuke. :D

Armored Core 4 Answer was decent, but I've always been a fan of the Armored Core series.
