    Steel Battalion, is a game that, only really dedicated gamers would really want to play. This game's 200$ price tag, that includes the massive 40-button controller, and the game itself. The game is great and is worth eve... Read Full Review

    The most immersive, entertaining game ever; bar none.

    By thewastedyouth | Review Date: Mar 05, 2012 | XBOX

    Steel Battalion is not a game. It is an experience. No simple review could possibly explain the intangible thrill there is in simply starting up the massive VTs that you will spend the next great many hours of your l... Read Full Review

    Steel Battalion is the only game EVER to give you a realistic mech experience

    By waflerevolution | Review Date: Jun 15, 2005 | XBOX

    Very few games have even tried to do a mech game with a non standard controller and I don’t think ANY other did it without making the special controller optional until Steel Battalion. We have here a first person, in ... Read Full Review

    The way a machine was supposed to act!

    By Imhotepp | Review Date: Mar 16, 2005 | XBOX

    I can't get enough of this game and its controller. To have this game you need three vital parts. 1) the Xbox 2) Capcom 3) money to burn. I'm not saying I have money to burn but I did pick this game up I have not ever be... Read Full Review

    Mech Warrior fans rejoice! Best mech simulation ever!

    By HTWingnut | Review Date: Jan 04, 2005 | XBOX

    While I was skeptical at first, I bit at the $150 price tag. If you are a sim head at heart, this game is for you! Halo run-and-gunners need not apply. It really makes you feel as if you are sitting inside a Mech or as t... Read Full Review

    Phenomenal, difficult, exhilarating, demanding are all adjectives that can be used to describe Steel Batallion. This game is a must have for any MechWarrior, BattleTech or any other giant robot game fan, and don't worry... Read Full Review
