I feel sorry for you chumps who don't know about steel battalion [img]http://www.videogamesblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/steel-battalion-1-xbox-controller-with-pedals-and-box-package.jpg[/img] [editline]14th December 2010[/editline] The most fun mech game ever made shut the fuck up if you disagree you are WRONG.
It seems fun.
[QUOTE=Lord_Ragnarok;26686453]It seems fun.[/QUOTE] I own it, the first time you play it you will have a heart attack from all the controls. Starting the mech up requires six toggle switches and three buttons. Also there's a button to clean the windows.

fuck your shitey weeaboo robots. THIS is the shit. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxfKZZ4RNng[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nm76b8tzzWI[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2MQPWE_M_EM[/media] Mechwarrior always had some brilliant opening cinematics.
Most of the chromehounds mechs look like it'd take a single well-placed shell to remove a limb. Also 4 pages and no mention of Heavy Gear? [img]http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KFvAVYwwFSQ/SDrjbZVjYXI/AAAAAAAAACo/oBN6-wYjfc0/s400/Heavy+Gear+Grizzly.jpg[/img] Aren't many good images so this'll have to do, but if you're awesome you'll remember it anyway.
[QUOTE=Kill001;26597888][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6-tWcM1P5A[/media][/QUOTE] That looks honestly just stupid, especially in action. [editline]14th December 2010[/editline] Just like all mechas.
[QUOTE=Craigewan;26681911]As much as I love GitS, the Tach/Fuchikomas were a bit too cutesy for my liking.[/QUOTE] Well they are police smart-tanks. You don't want to intimidate/scare the local citizens when you're on your way to a crime scene.

Anyone remembers Front Mission mechs?
Oh god...Mech Assault nostalgia.
Fuck you guys, I have to watch Gundam Wing again. To relive my younger days playing Mechwarrior/MechAssault. I don't mind either to be honest.
Fuck you all Metabee all the way! [IMG]http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100701195503/medabots/images/2/27/P_Saikachis_1.jpg[/IMG]
tba I'm kinda glad the results show significantly less eastern voters than voters of both. I hate when they decide to make mecha in ANY kind of media "lulz invincible" yet am sad that there's more western voters due to "lulz weeaboo" or "It doesn't look functional in reality" I voted both because I just think both have great designs, both "Functional" and obviously not gonna happen anytime soon. I'm just stating my opinion on how the voting is going on. have another Silly Gundam Tequila Gundam [img]http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/g/gf13-049nm.jpg[/img] otherwise known as Gundam el Mexicano
[QUOTE=Empty_Shadow;26686467]this. Fucks sake, which other mech has a Deus Ex Machina button?[/QUOTE] I think just about EVERY mecha has a Dues Ex Machina button Anyway: I think that the typical japanese mechs, like Gundam, are just stupidly designed they look like that they're trying to be parodies of mechs. Most of them just look like guys in rubber suits, which I don't understand since they're all anime. Whereas the typical western mech, like from Mechwarrior, are so primitive in comparison it's laughable. They really only care about how many guns they can cram onto it. But most of all I hate how all mechs are indestructable and overpowered like hell, seriously the Gundam mechs can turn into fairy dust and keep on fighting. [/rant] But despite this, I do have my favourites Western favourite: [media][URL]http://wh40k.lexicanum.de/mediawiki/images/d/d5/Impdict01.jpg[/URL][/media] Imperius Dictatio Eastern favourite: [media]http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc302/axemunger/The_Big_O_megadeus.jpg[/media] Big O
American mechs are the best. Don't get wrong. Japanese mechs are alright, but sometimes just too silly. American sensibilities shine really well when it comes to mechs.
Definitely Western Mechs, I don't like the eastern mechs since the humanoid look isn't something that really appeals to me in mechs.
Both. I don't like the massive ones too much. though. Code geass Knightmare Frames (lots of differant ones): [img]http://www.navinaj.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/akatsuki.jpg[/img] Heavy gear: [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/49/Heavy_Gear_Blitz-Grizzly.jpg[/img] Titans are awesome.

The miniatures game is too expensive for me at the moment, but the 1st PC game was damn good.

madcat/timberwolf became my favorite mech because of this [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNLBj8IyVN0&feature=related[/media] despite the fact that they got raped
I absolutely hate the big human looking ones If that's what this is about. Those Gekkos from MGS4 are where it's at, big sexy synthetic legs! [img]http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20080322015009/metalgear/images/f/f3/Metal_Gear_Gekkou.JPG[/img]
What about the auto bots? Like Optimus Prime?
