Mechs are awesome because when you get in one you become a giant metal man with big metal guns instead of a normal man with normal guns. Everything's better when you're big and metal.

[QUOTE=Novangel;47625028]They deserved to die for not being able to hit a giant robot running towards them in a straight 'corridor'.[/QUOTE] Welcome to literally every show involving guns ever, where main characters can charge through hails of bullets without the slightest scratch and the audience is supposed to be impressed rather than acknowledge the plot armour wrapped a metre thick.

The Fluted Armor from Demon's Souls is pretty bitchin'. [img]http://i12.servimg.com/u/f12/17/21/13/78/demons10.jpg[/img] It's also cool how parts of it's model were used for the knight armor in Dark Souls. Like they have the same polys and everything.
[QUOTE=NikoChekhov;47625817]Where else would they be? The old movies?[/QUOTE] He's saying he's upset the flame troopers are in the new movie because he has bad taste and thinks they're ugly.
[QUOTE=Reds;47624124]A mecha is sword, shield, and steed all at the same time. It's just a question of how humanoid it is and how much personality it has.[/QUOTE] depends, some games/worlds mechas are more like walking tanks like this [t]http://www.keiththompsonart.com/images/full/alekandstormwalker.jpg[/t] [sp]litterally the only good part of this book series[/sp] and thats really cool in its own way because you have a crew manning this thing thats covered in guns and bobbing all about or they're just giant infantry in like gundam [editline]30th April 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=Skyward;47629863]He's saying he's upset the flame troopers are in the new movie because he has bad taste and thinks they're ugly.[/QUOTE] supposedly they're critical to the beginning of the movie and probably thats it, i don't count on them being in all but one or two scenes as terror weapons

[QUOTE=Luxuria;47629910]Honestly wish this set had carried over from Demons Souls.[/QUOTE] Same. We have this though: [url]http://www.nexusmods.com/darksouls2/mods/328/?[/url] And like I said in my post the knight armor is like a torn up version of the fluted armor. So it's better than nothing.
[QUOTE=Luxuria;47629910]Ironic im the one considered having bad taste[/QUOTE] Well nobody agrees with you so yeah it's you.
Leto Atreides II sandtrout skin from Children of Dune. On the plus side, it makes you superhumanly strong, almost indestructible and seemingly immortal. On the down side, after a few centuries you end up as a giant worm. Swings and roundabouts.

Remove that and they're pretty shit-tier mecha.

Get rid of half the spikes and capes and it would be a good design.
At least it's not covered in belts.

[QUOTE=Jimesu_Evil;47631858]At least it's not covered in belts.[/QUOTE] FF15's main character design is the worst. Everybody dresses like normal modern people and they look like a bunch of boy band douchebags with ten thousand dollars of product put into their hair.
I guess the easterling's had some pretty nice armor [img]http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/merp/images/e/e4/Easterling2.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20121115122441[/img] and the titan security station guards (cannon fodder) as well [img]http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/deadspace/images/1/16/Security_RIG_DSA.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20110206193306[/img] I'm a bit disappointed that they weren't available suits in single player or the bogus multiplayer and of course this bad boy right here [img]http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/deadspace/images/b/b4/Military_RIG_cropped.JPG/revision/latest?cb=20081204035208[/img]
