This game was my introduction to both the MechCommander world and RTS games in general and I loved it when I first played it and loved it years later, and still love it now, but it's just gotten so hard to play. I could probably make it work by setting up some emulation but that's a little deeper than I want to go to replay a game. But I miss being called "skipper" when I'm being told about weapon upgrades and all the full movie videos from the characters are Gold.
You had no bases to build. But, for as long as it fit the tonnage limit, you could load as many 'Mechs as you wanted. I'd usually run with a trio of Sha Yus that would rush at Assaults. After a few shots, i'd have a salvage team flying in with one of my 'Mech Warriors into the recently-emptied Assault 'Mech.
Loved the way this game plays. I have always been a fan of Age of Empires and this franchise takes the Strategy Game in a different direction. I remember hours of “Happy Gaming” unwinding after work Battling, and then building my Mechs with salvage. I Would be absolutely thrilled for this to come to GOG and would Purchase it immediately.
The 3D tactics and the newer graphics make the game different then it's predecessor and the selection of available mechs is better as there is new mechs as well as some classics. I played this solo and the 3D element makes some of the missions easier but also makes them harder. I want to play this along with the other mechcommander and mechwarrior games and getting the games from here would be easier to do so
The first truly 3D management RTS!
Crossroads and tracks!
An exciting story!
You had to pay attention to every little thing during the game. Before starting the mission, it was at least as cool to assemble the team!
The 2nd best game in the world!
I love it!
I remember playing it through at least 10 times!
But I can't do anything with the physical disk anymore... :(
If you like mech warrior you'll probably like this, it's more tactical than the FPS games because strategy matters a lot where as in the FPS games you could cover up a weak setup with piloting/gunning skills.
Kinda surprised to see this on gog wishlist though cause Microsoft released this game free many years ago unless they took back the offer.
Honestly I played this at my auntie's house, shame I lost the physical copy and nearly forgot about this gem. It came 2nd in-line next to StarCraft Broodwar with 3rd being Supreme Commander.
It looks like there's a resurgence in interest for this now that Win 11 makes the abandonware version almost unplayable. It would be worth a great deal of worthless, useless money to be able to just buy it and play it, rather than try one of the multi-step walkthroughs that, might, still get it to work.
I have been waiting for other games like this (especially in battetech genre).. Sadly there are none. The last one i think was turnbased. :( This game was good customization.
Need for Speed: High StakesJust like its predecessors Need for Speed: High Stakes is an action racing game with a wide selection of exotic sports cars and many different types of tracks. The trademark Hot Pursuit mode game mode from the first game in the series is still present, where players race opponents on tracks filled with regular traffic and police cars that chase the racers. The classic pursuit mode is extended with two additional modes: Getaway and Time Trap. In Getaway the player needs to shake off the police in a set amount of time, or playing as the police trap a speeder before time runs out. In Time Trap an entire race needs to be completed before time runs out, or as the police all speeders need to be arrested. There are minor differences between the two platforms for this game mode, regarding spike strips, road blocks, and back-up. The latter for instance is unique to the PlayStation version. The Pursuit mode is available in multiplayer as well and players can take different sides or race together.
It is the first game in the series to introduce a Career mode with a set of challenges. Beating these is rewarded with trophies for unlocks, and money to spend on new cars, repairs and upgrades. In the PlayStation version the Career mode is split up into two different sets of challenges: Tournament (required races) and Special Event (optional races). High Stakes in the title refers to races where players bet their cars. In the PC version these are a part of the Career mode when the player owns more than two cars. In the PlayStation version two players can insert their memory cards and race against each other. The winner immediately receives the opponent's car and it is deleted from the loser's memory card right away.
In addition to the new game modes it is also the first game in the series to have a detailed physics models. Damage now affects both the appearance and the performance of the car for the first time.
