I know that! I was using your blur comments about Xbox games as a joke. I guess it wasn\'t that funny.

I am just glad a decent mech sim is coming to Xbox.  it will be a niche title, and I will buy it.  If its linkable I\'ll buy four.

I find Mechassualt to be insulting.  Its really too dumbed down for the Quake 3 crowd.... Mechs don\'t f*cking straffe (straif, strafe, straff,... sp?).  And something of the scale seems to be lost in the videos.

So Steel Battalion it is... at least for now.

You can all complain about Steel Battilion all you want , but I\'m so into that game. Than again, it does have all the makings for a niche\' title that I\'d enjoy.

Capcom? Check!
Overly expensive? Check!
Big, big robots? Check!
Cool looking controller? Check!
Niche title / low seller? Check!

Count me in!

Well, I did the blur for cinematic reasons, now that I think about it, at least that guy\'s vision is clear and not blurry =P

You and all whine and cry over a simply edited picture that was aimed at bashing X-box.
You think positive, I\'ll think realistic.

I was making a joke (obviously not a good one). I thought I was being clever. I will never joke about a joke about the XBox.

I know I\'ve got issues. You didn\'t have to remind me, MM! :(

I can\'t help it. It\'s a Capcom game and a Mech game at that! It beckons me, I guess. I\'ve said since Capcom announced this game, that I was willing to pay almost any price that they wanted for the game and controller.

/me looks around room at all the overly priced items I\'ve bought because it seemed to be a bright idea at the moment....

Funny... how about a $400 video card?  I will often buy expensive things for the ultimate gaming.

I am quite poor, but it all comes down to being picky with my opulant purchases.  

Ya see... i am a mech a holic, if I could afford a "tesla 4 mech sim" i would get that too.

Seriously though, PC gamers have no place to talk about expensive purchases.  (just upgraded... eep!)

LIC, just make sure you read impressions on the game before you buy it.. Gamespot is not so sure about it right now

While we saw Capcom\'s staff demo further into the mission, there wasn\'t too much more to show of the game, leaving us wondering just how much more there is to Steel Battalion.


If its a short game, it could be the most expensive few hours..

Fine but I did pay $100 to get a spankin new joystick when MW4 came out... so $50+$100=$150  
which is around the same price as Steel Battalion.. er as far as I know.

The only thing I hope for is further support by Capcom... new campaigns and the like.  My Xbox has an 80gb drive so I am all set for their stuff.

80 gig hard drive?  ROFL!  did you remove the factory 10 gig one thats in there, and replace it with an 80 gig one?

i bet that $100 joystick is a dust collector right now, which it just about what the xbox HD could be doing for as much as you use it now

Well... actually I play MW4 often enough still to make it worth it.  Plus its good for... um... okay fine got me there.

But as far as the 80gig drive, well I\'m no pirate but there is enough cool homebrew to make it worth it.  Plus i can back up games I own and play them without having to muck with the disks.  One thing i like to do is backup demos I like offa the OXM and keep at easy access.  But lemme reiterate (I don\'t condone piracy of retail games)

its all a matter of value, some people think its not worth it... thats fine.  leave it to the fans of that genre.  for example I doubt many people who didn\'t like racing games bought the GT3 steering wheel.  But hey, that doesn\'t mean its not worth $99 for someone who enjoyed it.
