MechWarrior – debut trailer

So a few days ago, I called Sony about my busted PlayStation 3 which is going to cost me nearly $200 Canadian dollars, as per the call centre lady quoted me. Well I guess it is still more than 50% cheaper than getting a brand new 80GB PS3.

Anyway, I saw this trailer and at first I thought it was one of those classic downloadable games (by the way I just purchased Final Fantasy 7 through PlayStation Network, I just couldn’t resist!). So it turns out this is actually a new MechWarrior game, and an impressive one too based on this trailer. The graphics are obviously a lot better than before (well duh), with today’s processing power. There isn’t much to say yet based on this but I see that when you get shot, you actually shake which is pretty realistic given the fact that previous MechWarrior games weren’t like that (if I remember correctly). One thing that bothers me is the fact that in the year 3015, they are still using parachuts when ejecting from your Mech. Ever heard of escape pods?

So far that’s what I got to say about MechWarrior, but will definitely keep my eyes on this one as we seriously and badly need a next-gen-mech type game. Unfortunately it is only available for PC and Xbox 360, why??? Why????
