Mecha power! Let's talk mecha games of all kinds

They are few but the mech sections in EX Troopers are great arcade fun. Also there is missions on the battlefield fighting in them not just VS training missions. (Again spinoff of Lost Planet) Not posted for reasons but there is a boss fight you in a mech vs a giant mech.

What the hell!?!?!?! I didn't know that Lost Planet had mechs in it! It simply looked like a standard 3rd person shooter! now I have to find some time to go and play it!

Don't forget EX Troopers the spinoff(and my fave in the series). On PS3. All in Japanese but insanely import friendly and cheap. yeah, it has sections where you are in a mecha. Not the whole game.



BTW for any Virtual On fans. Have any of you played Border Break or Gundam Versus on PS4? Gundam VS reminds me a lot of VO. not exactly the same but similar. I'm not a Gundam fan at all but that game is pretty fun. I played some Border Break and it seems fun but without knowing Japanese I struggle with it and I am sure the Japanese players hate me since I'm a little lost in missions lol.

Not an action game but my fave RPG with mecha is Xenoblade Chronicles X. Huge alien world to explore and while you don't get them until about 30 hours in the game they are so great when you do get them. I was never able to get the Ares. I spent 800 hours on this game. I just the world and exploring with the Skells.

Gears will always be my favorite. XCX is enjoyable as a game, but most of the stuff related to the plot is atrocious. They should've either dropped the apocalyptic setting or embraced the alien hate. If it's an ordinary colony mission, then it ends up having a really dark twist. Lao's anger becomes completely justified. If it's the apocalyptic route, then you spend the entire game distrusting or hating every alien you meet. Then the reveal at the end becomes a real bombshell. Either route would be a million times more satisfying that what we got.

Anyway, this is my Mospeada inspired team (haven't played in a while, though). The Legioss (Alpha in Robotech) is maybe my favorite mecha design ever, and the Urban skell looks close enough. I especially like that it transforms into a motorcycle, which also fits Mospeada perfectly.



I also kept my starter Urban (unlike many players). It's great for twinking, and has no trouble wrecking Xe-doms.

^ Can't rep but I agree about the story. I did like RE Tyrant being the final boss tho lol. I colored mine after consoles. Saturn,Dreamcast,SNES & Turbografx-16.




I like the giant mecha boss fights as well and I might be the only one who gets a little chuckle how you fight The Vita on the Wii U.







I have this thing about making mecha in Saturn or Virtual On colors. Screenshots thread I had a mecha named Tamjin in this demo but then I got better parts and have Saturn colors (Japanese grey) and of coure Leynos after ASL on Genesis/PS4. I could not change the orange lights to red or green tho. This is the DXM demo.

Yeah I got the LRG Senko no Ronde 2 release. I love how it has Temjin & Leynos as DLC. Stella I need to play more of on 360. The other game I never played but interested now.

One of my fave games on Saturn. I esp like the OST.




This game is on PS4 & PC. I found it pretty fun. It's not quite Zone of the Enders but still found it enjoyable.





This game feels overlooked on PS1. Kinda Panzer ish but more movement.
