This game is awesome. The graphics are great. This game came delivered "new" like they said and came in 4 days.

4Fun multiplayer, ok campaign. Works on 360!Jan 06, 2010
I bought this game because I heard great things about the original mechassault. i didnt buy the original because it doesnt work on the xbox 360. i have played the first before and i think that the first is way better than the second. In the first game, you could choose your mech before the mission. in the second you either start in a mech that you didnt choose, in some new battle armor that is almost useless against other mechs (besides a new hijacking feature that i'll get to later), or as a human. The part were you get to walk around as a human might sound coll but you are VERY weak and you walk around in a lot of missions. it get very annoying and kind of ruins some of the gameplay. you can also drive tanks but they cant do much against other mechs, only other tanks and helicopters. the battle armor is also annoying, it is also pretty weak and the only real thing you can do is hijack(they call it neurohack in the game) what you do is latch on to a mech and a little icon pops up telling you to press certain buttons. if can press all the buttons i tells you the mech falls over and you can get into it. IF you dont die before geting to the mech and it doesnt turn on sheilds. the multiplayer is really fun. i havent played on xbox live but on a local console. if you play team destruction(two teams fight against each other to get points) or any other team game you can get in VTOLS. if you dont know what VTOL stands for its like a hover craft ship thing. at each base there is a landing pad. there you can choose upgrades to drop off to your friends, upgrades for your VTOL and bombs. bombs are devastating against other mechs they can really help out your friends. over all it is a pretty good game. i gave it 4 stars because the campaign is fun but not great. if your buying it for xbox live i want you to know nobody plays it anymore. i know the other reviews say it is really fun on xbox live but you wont be able to play in with other people online. so dont buy it for the online multiplayer

5Glad I bought itAug 06, 2007
Great graphic for a Xbox1 game
good game-play, nice pacing
this a well designed game
I gave this a 3 for fun because the over all game lacked a certain "Ommff" of...I'm owning it up an big Mech

2Worst Mechwarrior Game ... PeriodMay 04, 2007
I just became a proud owner of an XBox 360. I had always wanted to take a stab at the Mech Assault games on the XBox, and thankfully Mech Assault was finally listed as being backwards compatible with the XBox 360.

I've been a fan of the Mechwarrior universe ever since Mechwarrior 2 made its debut on the PC. Yeah, that was a long time ago. I was itching to play the same kind of in depth game again. I couldn't wait to open up the package and play a modern Mechwarrior game again. Afterall, the reveiws had been great. Plus, it had been a while since a good Mechwarrior game had come out. Mechwarrior 3 was awful, and the fourth wasn't that much better either. Well, neither is this game. In fact, it's worse than Mechwarrior 3 or 4. At least in those games you actually can group weapons together, be inside the cockpit, and have decent story lines.

Mech Assault 2: Lone Wolf, fails in ever category to satisfy the hardcore Mechwarrior gamer. There's no Mechs to buy, no upgrades, no grouping of weapons, no commanding of fellow mechs, no fun period. If you've played and enjoyed the Mechwarrior 2 series, you know what kind of greatness is within those games. This game reminded me of a bad beta demo of Armored Core. The AI is horrific as well. I can't tell you how easy it was to outthink any enemy I came against, not there's much to it in the first place. That's because the aiming and targeting is flawed as well. I remember the old days of hitting someone in the legs and knocking their legs out. Well, if you're lucky you'll do that in this game, but nine times out of ten you'll just waste your unlimited ammo as well.

The other thing that really brought this game to a new low was the ability to walk through these icons in the map to increase your weapon strength and your health and your power. In the old games, the entire mission was made realistic by giving you a mech and your wits. If it got busted all up to heck, you had to fix it after the mission. Not this game, just plop over a health powerup and your health goes right back up. Yeah, that's great if you're a two year old playing this game and you have no recollection what a real Mech game played like. Unfortunately for me, I do remember.

Here's the other thing. What ever happened to overheating??? If you fired too much in the old days your mech would die. Not here in this game, either. Just fire away until your thumbs get tired and nothing will stop you.

This game is very simplistic and very unoriginal. It was painful for me just to get through a few missions before I finally tossed it aside and trade it in.

Gameplay: 3/5

The controls were actually easy to use. No problem getting around and shooting. There is just not good enough aiming quality.

Graphics: 3/5

I've seen better on the XBox like Halo 2's graphics engine, however, I've also seen way worse graphics as well. Just average visuals here. Frankly, I think I'm being generous with this rating.

Presentation: 2/5

The reason this gets such a low score is due to the game's history as a whole. I know the kind of potential Mechwarrior games have, and this game does not even compete. It tries to lure you in by saying you can jump in and out of mechs. However, this is the only thing trying to lure you into the game. It's a great feature, but when the game is designed around this premise, that's when it fails.

Features: 1/5

This game is so unoriginal and so not full of anything it leaves you so bored by the second and third missions you wonder why you continue to play. The features are simple: move, fire one single weapon (oh and by the way, you only get a few weapons to select from) and jump out of your mech and into another one on the map. Remember customizing mechs and stuff before each mission all you Mechwarrior 2 fans? Yeah ... I guess that must have slipped the game development guys' minds, because you can't customize anything.

Overall: 2/5

If you've never even seen Mechwarrior 2 then this game probably is fun for you. However, if you played these games since conception ... well ... spend your money elsewhere. Severe disappointment.

4Great Mech Fun - A Bit Too Much Foot-Time ThoughJul 02, 2006
MechAssault 2 Lone Wolf brings us yet another game of fun robot driving. You get a wide range of robots, as well as a few types of gameplay.

The graphics are reather nice - from the large explosions to the lightning-zaps of your weapons. You stomp around, gathering up supplies, blowing up everything that is around you.

However, where the previous game trapped you in your robotic shell, now you can climb out and get into other vehicles and tanks. You can lay down bombs to take out your enemies. This might seem like a cool feature - but it usually ends up with your frail human skeleton being squashed like a bug.

You can go online for traditional deathmatch battle, as well as a team MMORPG type of environment where you can go for more long term goals.

I have mixed emotions about the "expansion" from traditional mech gameplay. I understand that they're trying to give people more options, but the game really is quite unforgiving to you when you're out of your metal shell.

Luckily, they don't make you do that TOO often, and if you can just grit and bear it through those parts, the rest of the game really does reward with a lot of destructions and stamping around through a variety of landscapes.

Still, I would really love for MechAssault 3 to focus more on the large mech battles, and perhaps just provide a stronger plot line, better voice acting, and a truly immersive mech world. That would be my Mech Dream.
