Hmmm. Mentions Battletech and Mechwarrior but not Mechwarrior Online? That game has its problems and isn't finished but it is F2P and the stompy robot pew pew is really good.

Hey dumbass, next time dont recommend a movie that isn't even out yet. Seriously, how hard is it to go on Amazon and actually READ what the release date is for Pacific Rim.

Nothing new here at all. Small maps, run and gun. Bullet sponge enemies and bullet hose protagonist. Frantic gameplay...just more dumbed down shiny objects for the idiots who's only purchasing power is mom and dad. Mom and dad have single handedly ruined video games with this crap.

Having to require tips on what to do until the release of some game has confirmed my suspicions that society really has tanked further than I had originally thought. Back in my day we did something called living. Kids these days probably have never heard the word before but I assure you it's quite fun and rewarding. Yes, better than game achievements.

War of the Worlds is a brilliant book and Pacific Rim is also a brilliant recommendation. For those that haven't seen it yet, but want to? Two things...

"1. Don't you ever touch me again and...

2. Don't you ever touch me again!"

Now go out to the cinema and support it with a ticket. Idris Elba IS awesome in it.

How I'm waiting for Titanfall: playing Unreal Tournament 2004, and not buying Titanfall. **** EA, the boycott continues.

... Gundam. There are dozens of GREAT Gundam games (and Crossfire), which is much closer to style of Titanfall than anything mentioned in the episode. Even the cockpit (linear seats, anyone) are pretty much a direct copy of Gundam. The style of jetpacks is pretty much from Gundam (although those are only for use in Space. Multidirectional thrusters) and the background story seems to be pretty much Gundam. It's only really missing Angsty teen-age boys stealing prototypes. Infact, Gundam Battle Operation is a game with on-foot and in mecha combat and is a free to play title on the Japanese PSN. The series is also the grand-daddy of all military-mecha show, and is partially responsible for defining the genre in Japan, which has been way more successful there than here.

Way too much hype for what looks like just another FPS. Keep your pants on GS and wait for the full game.

@djinyoung I love tabletop gaming. I've never really dipped into actual wargames, but tabletop RPG gaming is one of my favourite things of all time.

@SHEETBIKE @djinyoung I started as a RPG gamer then moved on to tabletop wargaming. With the right game system and if your fine with the hobby aspect it can be very fun, social, and quite rewarding.

I also highly recommend Heavy Gear II- great mech piloting game, but the mechs are much more similar to those in Titanfall than in Mechwarrior/Battletech- very quick and mobile, but more vulnerable to damage.

Don't forget Hawken! Free-to-play mech combat with Occulus Rift support!

Look kids, another Gamespot segment where they tell you what game you're excited for.

Good thing we have Gamespot to tell us what to think, otherwise we would have to do that for ourselves.

This game is a lot like Mech Assault 2, especially with the "Mech Jacking" feature. It's just a little less Mech-centric.
