Summary: mw4.mercs
Review: The MW4.Mercs has 42 mechs,this includes the mechs from vengance,black knight and the add on packs.The requirements to run this game are at the microsoft mercinaries web site.with 32 bit graphics the game should be very good.As far as game play goes,gone are the days of blowing the enemy mechs up to get salvage,with mercs you'll have to disable them to get salvage.

Summary: Best 'Mech romp EVER!!!
Review: There are those who may may whine about it being stand-alone, but I personally don't mind. After all, there's over 40 missions to beat, four separate Mercenary legions to join, three different endings, and over 35 'Mechs! There are big, epic battles with as many as 15 'Mechs involved, and though that may seem like a small fight, you must remember that EVERYTHING involving giant robots is big. The graphics remain the same, though the developers did improve the textures for the older 'Mechs. This is especially true of the Black Knight, which had blurry chest textures in the Black Knight add-on for MechWarrior 4. Despite dated graphics engine, this game takes it for one last action packed ride, and makes itself a winner. If you're a 'Mech fan, or just like blowing stuff up, this is for you. Plus there's multiplayer! You can blow up Joe Schmoe who lives in Greenland from the comfort of your computer chair! Doesn't that sound fun?

Summary: MechWarrior
Review: There's nothing quite like configuring your mech, adding three guass rifles, making an Atlas go 96 kph, then bringing them into battle against hoardes of clanners. The best mechwarrior games are the mercenaries series, and although not everything is perfect in here, it is still the leading battle mech game out. One problem they have is not enough mechs. Although there sure are a lot, more than Mechwarrior 4: Vengance, it isn't as many as mechwarrior 2: mercenaries, which is by far the best of the mech games. This would be the second best.

Summary: Kill'em All; and collect some cash along the way!!!!
Review: This game is so cool, it kicks my .... I have been playing the MW games for a long time, and this one is the best yet. Aside from being limited to only a few terrain types, the graphics are pretty good; although, they have not changed from the original MW4. If you like having the option of picking your missions, making money, and buying new mechs, then this game is for you. The gladiator style matches are a very nice touch and I can sit for hours playing through each of the weight classes and advaning my cause. If you like BattleTech, then you'll like this game.

Summary: Best game I ever played!!!!!!
Review: This is the best game I have ever played! It sure beats Mechwarrior 4 Vengence. The graphics are awesome. When another mech's arm or leg is blown off, you actually see that part missing. What also helps is the invincibility and no heat opitions you can use. The variaty of mechs is huge(I prefer the Fafnir for its ballistic capabilities, and the Sunder for its possible missile and beam weapons). What's also cool is the Free Market. In Mechwarrior 4 Vengence, you can only salvage, now you earn C-Bills(cash) to buy weapons, teamates and best of all Mechs of the Free Market. Another cool part is the Solaris VII arenas, you can make major C-Bills there.(Not to mention if you get to a certain point, the news area will talk about a fan club in honor of you!) Another thing is that you can choose from three diffrent endings, two ending with Steiner and one with Davion. This game is the BEST!

Summary: Great, Great, Great.....
Review: This is the best Mech war game I have played, so far. It has great graphics, game play and easy to use controls. I love making my mechs and then testing them on the Wave of a Mech of your choice. I will be looking for other Mech 4 games, or Mech 5.

Summary: The best of the best of the best of the best...
Review: This is the best. A huge amount of 'Mechs for use. The Mech Paks are almost useless except for their 'Mechs. Even then you can't use the Pak 'Mechs in the campaign. You do face Mech Pak 'Mechs in the campaign though. It's like subliminal advertising. The game play is excellent even though I still have a Pentium II 400Mhz. Microsoft recomends a 700Mhz processor. The CGI movie at the beginning isn't as good as some others. Solaris VII is finally included in the game. A kill bonus is included for every 'Mech you kill. Including Solaris there are 11 planets to visit. New Canton and Carse have one mission each. There are three different endings you can get. Late in the game you must decide between Steiner and Davion. Salvage is scripted. Having 8 'Mechs in the field under your command is fun. Add to that about 8 more not under your control on some missions battles can be fun. At the beginning there are four companies you can choose as a sponsor. There is finally a 20 ton 'Mech that is usable. Instead of a lot of voice actors giving the story it is text. I am getting sick of the Inner Sphere. BRING ON THE CLAN POINT OF VIEW MICROSOFT.
If you do buy this head over to www.mektek.net to get some maps and other files. It is possible to download a CTF mission pack and Vengeance and Black Knight terrains and maps for use in multiplayer.

Summary: Great Game
Review: This is the first Mechwarrior game I have ever bought or played. I normally play FPSs, RPGs, and Strategy games.

This game impressed me with how easy it is to control and how much fun it is to fight in large battles with other mechs. The basic premise is that you are a mercenary who takes various jobs for different employers. You command a group of mercs who fight alongside you in huge battle robots(mechs) against tanks, turrets, and enemy mechs.

There is a wide variety of missions: you defend bases, destroy bases, escort important people, and somtimes recon enemy installations. But the best part is Solaris VII. You fight in your mech against other mechs, but it is in a colloseum much like the movie Gladiator. You are alone against 3-12 other mechs and it is survival of the fittest. They could make an entire game out of just that part if they wanted to.

I recommend this game to anyone who like computer games, and likes tense action filled battles. You can play using many different strategies, which gives the game alot of replay value.

Hope you enjoy, I had alot of fun with this game.
