Now that is what i want to see! I know there is that neo cari beta (spelling?) for unreal, but half-life has nothing of the sort for it. Opinions anyone?

What could be more fun than piloting a 40ft tall tank with legs, that crushes everything in its path :D

main problem with your request is level size

but of course you can always shrink the player hull & models which will lead to blurry textures.

but if that doesnt bother you then you can go ahead and get a team together and call it a mod lol ;)

yea!!!!!!! or walking sg's (that would be a great tfc mod lol ):)

Euro. If you shrink the models, they won't be come blurry. They will look perfectly the same.

HL Rally had the same problem. They couldn't find maps big enough to support a car model the size of a regular HL model. So they modeled them and made the model scale about 1/4 the size (I believe). Everything worked out perfectly and HL Rally looks superb if I must add.

As for the tanks, I already can play that with Mech Warrior and the new mech games coming out look pretty sweet, so I can hold out.

Yet I think a great MOD would be a WW2 one. A scenario where it is played out that Truman doesn't decide to drop the A-Bomb on Japan and then we must invade it.

Now, I don't know a thing about "BattleTech", but I would say, "piloting a 40ft tall tank with legs, that crushes everything in its path" on a modern engine ;).

to answer azz0r's question it comes with a load of stuff thats why.

The controller has over 40 buttons and levers that all do something in game, the foot pedals move you forward, back, and strife. I also heard it comes with a pretty thick manual as well as a tshirt and some dog tags.

One of the worst annoyances of video gaming is designers who interrupt the players' immersion in order to remind them "Don't forget, it's only a game!"These cute gimmicks don't improve the players' experience; they harm it.

Sorry after seeing this i just have to comment no matter how old it is.

The game is not $199 its $150. The games Tekki and Steel Battalion are the same game, Tekki is the japanese name and Steel Battalion is the English name. The game was originally shiped in 10,000 units to the US, and sold out of those in less then a week, shipments are slowly flowing in for more units, but they did not expect to sell that amount of units in such a short time, so its in very very short supply.

You guys want a sweet mech game go check out Steel Battalion for XBOX man that thing is the best mech game in the world (if you have an XBOX,like me) the only problem is that the game is 200$ because of the huge controller and the foot petals that it comes with man.

Steel Battalion :)

:) Great Game :)
