    I had seen that, but it doesn't really take my fancy at all. It just looks like a pure out and out spamfest more so that anything.

    Hawken has been stated as being a "CoD-like" take on the idea of Mech warfare, then with Online being more in-depth and then Tactics being turn-based action.

    A nice variety to have in any case, but I need to see more from RoT before I garner any interest in it.

    About time! I thought it had gone the way of the space game. :/ (And the RPG if I can get my claws out for a sec)

    I really liked the mech assault games so this is pretty cool.


    Thought I was the only one who thought the series was a bore. Mechwarrior Online looks like a sleep inducing crawl at this point.

    You seen X: Rebirth Parge? It looks promising. Course I wish there was also an Elite4, Freespace 3, Xwing vs Tie Fighter 2, and some others to choose from... but glad of whatever I can get these days.

    Hawken looks so damn pretty, especially after watching a friend play through some Mech Warrior 4 over the weekend, I know it's old and all but it looked like one of those games that doesn't age well...

    Q. Will MechWarrior® Online™ be PC exclusive?

    A. At this time we have no plans to take MechWarrior® Online™ to any other platforms.

    PC exclusive always gets my attention and respect.

    I'll be playing some Future Cop to buy the time for Hawken. Nostalgia goodness.
