Iron Soldier vs. Metalhead

As far as old mech games, what about Mech warrior? I was blown away by that for the genesis, and got it for the SNES and was sorely disappointed (it was a 2d top down game on snes where the genny was a 3D polygonal game)

What? The only Mechwarrior game for the Genesis is Battletech, an isometric sprite-based game. The SNES has a real first-person Mechwarrior game, though the mechs in it are also sprite-based.

"This is HQ to any available units. We have mechs down at nav gamma."

 

Yeah yeah, 1995, not 1994. Earthsiege was out in 1994 but never seemed as popular.

 

Yeah, was checking Earthsiege videos. Seems like it was the best PC mech game from 1994. Pretty diferent take from Iron Soldiers. Earthsiege makes use of textures, but it doesnt seem to give you the feeling of piloting a huge mech that IS does. Also, the levels seem pretty barren, while on Iron Soldier there is tons of huge stuff to blow up. Then again, ihave never played that PC game, but IS seems pretty comparable to it, not bad for a 250 dollars console.
