You get a coffee table-sized controller with it.

i read somewhere that it is playabale on the regular xbox pad, but who would play it crippled like that?

Post by: ooseven on August 06, 2002, 02:53:01 AM: $199 ?

for a Controller you will prob only ever use the once

Post by: Watchdog on August 06, 2002, 05:24:51 AM: I don\'t care what those screens look like because look at the size of the actual gameplay area--take away all the mech insides, and you\'re left with a very small screen--the game better look good, the engine only has to render half of the screen.

Plus, the game looks boring. For $200? I\'ll pass.

Post by: Bobs_Hardware on August 06, 2002, 05:28:07 AM: Heh, looks like doom when you made the screen smaller so it filled in with bricks

:P

looks like it would break after a few uses
Title: New Tekki screens
Post by: ooseven on August 06, 2002, 07:12:54 AM: do all them buttons actually do some thing ? or are they just there to make it look flash ?
Title: New Tekki screens
Post by: Watchdog on August 06, 2002, 08:52:16 AM: Aparently all the buttons are in use during gameplay. It takes several just to start your mech up. It\'s a simulator, not an arcade game ala Mechwarrior.

I don\'t know anyone who is into mech simulators. It\'s going to tank big time, and that\'s if the game is actually good. If it sucks...Capcom is going to eat a pretty jagged pill.

its the m$ sydrome to say "look what we can put out, no matter how much of a loss we take on it"

Post by: Ryu on August 06, 2002, 09:20:22 AM: I like that scale picture with the XBox behind the controller. Gives a real sense to how mammoth this thing will be. Fun for a laugh, but it\'s a gimmick, nothing more.
Title: New Tekki screens
Post by: macabre on August 06, 2002, 10:17:31 AM: Yeah it`s a gimmick, the dustX controller is still the most useful for Xbox:
