February 26, 2012 ''It is the 31st Century, and mankind is once again at war. The battlefields of the future are dominated by huge robotic war machines known as Battlemechs. Piloting these awesome weapons of war are men and women - the elite of the elite - knowing that each battle could be their last. They are MechWarriors.'' That awe-inspiring introduction to MechWarrior 3 is burned into the hearts and minds of MechWarrior fans around the world. MechWarrior 3 was Zipper Interactive's solution for that crave every person had, to know what it was like handling pure unadulterated power on the battlefield.

Mobile repair stations were available if you needed a fix, and most missions allowed for a variety of approaches to fulfil the objectives. When you exhausted the story, you could knuckle down in multiplayer deathmatch instead. Your Battlemech could be customised and upgraded to a variety of Mechs from the small Owens, to the pictured Madcat, or even a colossal 100-ton Daishi. Your load out included not only weapons but extra gear to accommodate game play such as jump jets, or particularly heat sinks as some weapons like the PPC could dangerously raise your Mech's temperature - resulting in a forced shutdown of all systems or critically self destructing. Weapons included a variety of short and long range missiles, autocannons, lasers, gauss rifles, and so on. Extra armour could be allocated along, and everything contributed to the total carrying capacity of your Mech which in turn affected speed. Graphically, it was very impressi... Full Review |
