Best mech simulator game ever. Need it easily accessible so bad. Don't forget to pay your internet bill, or Space AT&T will come get you.
You can "feel" the mech you are controlling this game. No successor game managed to get it THAT right for some reason. I loved the atmosphere and still do to this day. Please make it happen GoG! :)
The in-game sound effects and music were awesome for the time and the graphics were very good for the time. Tried to play via internet and lan but I prefer playing solo. It was a fun game and each mission harder in some ways and I enjoy that and getting new units and materials can be hard especially when you try the sure fire ways to get it. I want to play this again and would also hope that the expansion called pirates moon would come with it and I want to be able to get this game easier and play it faster.
We use to haul our PC's over to my friend's place back in the day and have a LAN setup playing MW3 for hours! One of the guys insisted we play with cheats enabled so there were no weight limits and unlimited ammo. He went with his usual fully loaded Daishi. I stripped down an Owens of all its armor and gave it a single LRM (long range missile) launcher. The Owens was running circles around him, faster than the Daishi can turn. After numerous wins in a row, he rage quit and never played MW3 against me since. Brilliant game!
This game was the VERY FIRST GAME i ever played on an IBM PC .... i had only ever played games on my old C64 or Atari or Nintendo BEFORE THIS GAME .... this game was amazing since i was never into Battletech before this game and it was all new and fascinating to me. FOR A LONG TIME this game was MY TOP FAVORITE .... until MechCommander and MechWarrior 4 came out! WOOOOOO
I loved this game so much and played the hell out of it. The opening cinematic is still by far the best one out of the entire Mechwarrior game series. It was great testing out all the different loadouts for your mechs and the campaign was fun too. I even have the "Reactor Online - Sensors Online - Weapons Online - All systems nominal" audio clip play whenever my phone connects to my car as I start it.
Still possibly the best mechwarrior game that wasn't a 'mercenaries' title. I played this a ton back in the day, and was one of my earliest introductories into online gaming with the microsoft zone you could get into 1v1 fights with other super laggy players, when you had to lead LASER shots to hit someone, a bad ping was a good thing, and you apologized for shooting someone in the leg and waited for them to get back up before you blew out their god damn cockpit.
I still remember the mission briefings from this game. While some of the characters weren't the best, the MFB was great (I'd recommend finding a YT no-commentary vid of them). I had a whole twin joystick setup to play this, one to control motion and the other for weapons. I was so young, I thought I was quite clever for getting that working (looking back it's just a slight facepalm and sigh). I didn't have the internet to look stuff up, but legging all the clanners was something even young-stupid me worked out. I still have the disk in my archives, but I haven't managed to make it work since the early 2000s. I believe it was my first big stompy robot game, and tromping around only came back after MW5.
I have never played this game, but my dad has played more hours on this game than some pro gamers have played on cod, he lost the game due pc issues and he could only download pirate copies which sadly on his first try downloaded a ransom virus which wiped a bunch of mine and my siblings baby photos (which he is still trying to get back years later). Gog is a trusted site and if this game could be brought back it would mean the world to him to be able to play it again :) so pretty please? (Sorry to sound sappy but its all true)

Monster HunterMonster Hunter is an online action-hunting game by CAPCOM for the PlayStation 2 released on March 11th, 2004 in Japan, and September 21st, 2004 in North America. The game is a fantasy hunting simulator filled with many deadly monsters. Like actual hunting, successfully killing or capturing the monsters requires significant strategy, skill and involved resource management. While initially considered a commercial failure, Monster Hunter would go on to become one of CAPCOM's highest selling franchises.
Despite featuring an offline mode, Monster Hunter was primarily an online game. The official servers were shut down on December 31, 2007 in North America and Europe, and July 1, 2011 in Japan. This means that it is now impossible to play online on official CAPCOM servers. Despite this, the game still features a small active community on private servers.Trending Action Fantasy Survival
