First- http://kotaku.com/5310586/new-mechwarrior-game-confirmed-will-reboot-series
And then- http://pc.ign.com/dor/objects/18954/mech-warrior-project/videos/mechwarrior_trl_phoenix_70709.html
Then let's get to the obvious stuff.
The only Mech game I can accept is a sim, but:
1) I can't see how a good sim would work on 360. MW3 used shitloads of keys, how's that gonna work on 360's controller?
2) Piranha Games on wiki
Games
* Die Hard: Nakatomi Plaza (PC)
* EA Playground (DS)
* Medal of Honor: Heroes 2 (PSP)
* Need For Speed: Undercover (PSP)
Kotaku mentions that they worked on the Revenge of The Fallen game but... no real sim games there.
3. Nothing says they have any experience with previous Mechwarrior games or BattleTech at all.
4. The trailer... uh, the visuals were ok, but it felt so cheesy.
First, the voice acting is terrible. It's like mech pilots get a boner every time they do something in their machine. Second, it gets the "mature" treatment- "oh shi-", "I've got you, you sonofa-".
On the other hand, I can see a little inspiration by Mechwarrior 3 intro- ruined city, Atlas, etc. And the surprise-Atlas was also nice, I think. Very climatic.
Please be a good sim
