Eh? *shrug* I'm definitely not a sim/strategy guy.

MechWarrior 2 ran in a DOS window. Oh yeah. It didn't support 3D acceleration but had vector drawn graphics with simple shaders. Even with primitive graphics, the game was intense. Strapping your character into a mech, a mechanical robot with 4 sets of interchangeable weapons, jumpjets and varying mech abilities was a hoot. I enjoyed playing the single-player missions. Playing networked just got me hammered. The online competition was often fierce and sometimes more than it needed to be. I couldn't hack it (which is one reason why I think I hated it so much). The game itself has gone on to spawn MW 3, and MechAssault the reincarnation on the Xbox platform. Sound was iffy, graphics were yucky, and after about 6 hours, I lost my interest. I can't whole-heartedly recommend this game but I can suggest picking up a more recent version of it.
