Besides Armored Core, what are some good mecha games. Bonus points

Armored Core 6 when

I was hunting for ones too, my friend. And the actual situation is very bad.

Simply put, there are none. PC Mecha games are dead.

Mechwarrior Online is shitty and grindy. Heavy Gear Assault is still in alpha, from what I recall and cost hell (wont stop devs from selling bonus machines, heh). Hawken is dead and left alone. Front Mission Evolved is shit and it still pains me why they made it like this.

From positive side, there is Project Nimbus, which is airbone mech combat game, but its in EA, very slowly climbing towards release. There is also, somewhat related, Strike Suit Zero/Infinity, which are normally space combat game but with option to transform your fighter into robot mode for a while, Macross style. New Mech Commaber or how its called is awaiting for relase. Rest are 2D side scrollers or similar games, not really worth the deal.

Mech agames are dead on PC> Since Exteel was killed, there is nothing left and NCSoft first killed fan project of Exteel 2 ("Full Metal Mayhem") and then killed their own sucessor, Project HON. They are dicks like that. Not to mention Wargaming buying out another studio that tried to make mecha game and closing the project, relocating them to work on their World of RNG. Yeah, so many bigger guys in industry are total dicks.

I still miss mecha games.

That is one God-ugly HUD

Ultimate Windom XP is pretty good.

Basically it's a Gundam versus clone for PC using original mecha

It had a heavy as fuck modding scene way back when that threw basically everything mecha in there to boot.

I think I still have Ramiel (as in that screaming diamond from Evangelion) as a mod somewhere.

Speaking of Armoured Core: I wanted to get into the series, heard the PS2 ones are the best. The PS2 ones are also on the PSP, which I could play on my vita, or are they much better on the PS2, because I plan on getting a PS2 at some point.

Simply put, if you're looking for mecha games, you're gonna have to dive into the PS2, which was the best console for mecha games. There's no way around it.

I'll list some games:
- Robot Alchemic Drive (RAD)
- Front Mission 5
- S.L.A.I.
- G-Breaker (JP)
- J-Phoenix (JP)
- VOTOMS (JP) - this one is pretty good

>>381684870
>>381685546
that game doesn't exist

>>381687630
Well, it's like this.
AC2, AC2 Another Age, AC3 and AC Silent Line use the classic control scheme (boost with X, strafe with R1/L1, look up/down with R2/L2).
Nexus, Ninebreaker and Last Raven use a new control scheme, where you move with one analog stick and aim with the other.

So for the classic control scheme, doesn't matter which version you play. For the analog control scheme, go with the PS2. Last Raven is specially frustrating on the PSP.

Just be very wary that even on the PS2, there are a few parts on each game that have slowdown. One in special is a boss fight against 3 ACs near the end of AC2 AA, there'll be tons of slowdown no matter what.

I'd just play the PS2 versions of them all.

If you consider Zone of the Enders 2 a mech game then I highly recommend it. You can't customize your mech and it's basically an action game but the gameplay is awesome, the bosses are amazing, and it's a good challenge. The voice acting is pretty cringey though. You don't need to play the first game but it's only 5 hours long and it's good for back story

Here's the thing about that; MechWarrior is the pinnacle, for me at least, of mech design. Being western has nothing to do with it. Metal Gear REX is a mech, it's sick as fuck, and it's eastern. But mech and mecha are not the same thing, and comparing MechWarrior to Zone of the Enders is fucking retarded.

Waifu shit maybe, but the gore shock value was part of the MC's character development and was in general fitting for the setting. It drove home the point of the brutality of the opponent in the setting and made it work that much better.

Typical action game where you lock-on on enemies, shoot with your guns, and I think every mecha had its own unique ability.
Graphics were pretty simple too because it was fanmade, probably japanese.
The mecha designs resembled Muv Luv/ZoE mechas.
You could choose the stages you play and I remember playing the most in a desert stage.
Very well made considering shit like Kickstart didnt exist back then. I think the game was like a zip with less than 100MB size.

Dunno why I cant remember the name itself or where I got it, but the only other stuff I used to play on PC back then was flash games.

Omega Boost is great. Not on Steam but you should be able to easily emulate it.

>>381684432
Never, they fired the AC team and as of now have only said how they WANT to make a mecha game set in medieval times but can't

>>381693506
The first game is great and nearly as good as 2.

>as of now have only said how they WANT to make a mecha game set in medieval times but can't

No, the guy outright said they're working on an Armored Core game.

>>381702181
Never mind, trying to fly while also having functional movement and look is terrible.

>>381702697
That was a fan mistranslation, when they released the offical translation there was nothing about any AC game

>>381701970
Makes sense, the ending of season 2 just felt off. I get what they were trying for with everyone who can fight during but it still feels like shit isn't resolved at all, that they just slapped the whole 'we used diplomacy afterwards to fix shit' because they didn't know how to really approach the Gjallarhorn/Rustal winning aftermath.

Steambot Chronicles.

>That was a fan mistranslation, when they released the offical translation there was nothing about any AC game

It was an IGN interview
>In an interview with IGN at Tokyo Game Show, Miyazaki gave hints as to what each of the three games will be:...
>When pressed on whether one of those game would be a new Armored Core - the hardcore mech series Miyazaki has worked on previously - he replied, "Yeah, we're already working on Armored Core", but would not offer any more detail.

>that last boss in arena

That was brutal. Full aerial, no heating and aims like with mouse.

Controls ar worst enemy in PSP AC.

>>381703240
>No AGE

Thank Christ, AGE was fucking trash.

>>381703570
I'll just wait for the rest of my PC parts and emulate it.

post the rest

What are some good ps1 mecha games aside from FM and AC?

>>381705990
The Grand Turismo people made a great one, Omega Boost.
Then there's loads upon loads upon loads of Japanese-only titles.

>>381694369
>No Gundam X

>>381706362
>Bawww it doesn't include the most overhyped Gundam series besides 08th MS Team

>>381702965
Just beat tournament, it's worth playing if you need more steambot

>>381707401
I apologise, in my sleepy state I somehow mixed up G Gundam and Gundam X.
