I don't know what you mean about the "sleek" vs. "clunky" style, because every game I've ever seen with mechs styles them pretty much the same. But it is a genre that has been lacking for a long time.
Going waaaaaaaay back, I loved Starsiege. No, not that Tribes garbage. Real Starsiege, with the Hercs and Cybrids. Loved that game, played through both campaigns a couple of times. Good fighting, and lots of fun desigining vehicles.
I think Mechwarrior was big about the same time, but I never played that one.
I'd like to see the giant robot combat simulation make a comeback. It's an action genre that could use a reboot.
