This game is being made by a team of ten people, yet it looks smarter than that item of mediocrity otherwise known as Front Mission Evolved.

Holy shit. That video actually made my mouth water.

I signed up for the beta a few weeks ago. Hoping I get in.

Yeah this game looks insane, especially for a small independent team.

Yeah, this game looks fun. It looks like a more weighty FPS control to give you a bit more sensation of being in a mech, but still plays like an FPS. And it creates its own universe so it isn't making my blood boil with how it's destroying the feel of BattleTech.

I don't like mech games generally, but that looked cool. I get a Killzone 2/3 vibe from the graphics...

Slave Zero was better than FME. Shogo was better than FME. FME was an exceptionally awful game. Hawken, on the other hand, looks awesome (despite its lame name).

This year is going to be great. There's going to be a new XCOM TBS and FOUR new mech games.

Hawken has moved into closed Beta. Follow this link to sign up:

There's also a new live action trailer.

As a huge fan of mech games whose been starved by the nearly dead genre I've been waiting on pins and needles for this game to come out. I hope it rocks as hard as it looks.

Also MechWarrior Online and Reign of Thunder. It's like developers are finally catering to me .
