The game does look amazing. But I heard that because it comes with that controler, it is going to retail for around $150. And I think I might be embarassed to have a controler that big lying around my house ... it is like a cockpit or something!

 

[Derrik Draven]

I'm going to pick it up when it comes out. It's hard to believe that, perhaps, the deepest mech-sim ever, is going to be on a console!
I have to believe that the developers of this game pretty much figure that this is going to be a VERY niche-type of game. Price wise, this probably isn't going to be a huge seller.
...but, stranger things have happened.

I'm getting this game. Man, when I first saw the videos of the game in action I was drooling. That was before I even knew about the controller. I must have this game.

[Romier S]

I'll be getting it, controller and all!

 

[Kelley_B]

I'm so there for this game! $160 is nothing for that huge controller, I know someone who paid $180 just for the Virtual On DC controller.

 

[Jeff Kleist]

I'm figuring at the very least I'll be able to recycle the controller in a movie
Think about if this game supports X-Box Live. Mmmmmmmmmmm
Where can I find movie clips?

 

[Gary King]

Tekki Online has been confirmed (for Xbox, and possibly PC). However, the first game will not support Xbox Live.

i can't believe no ones made a joke of the size of the controller in comparison to the X-Box................

The controller is too cool to make fun of! Has ayone seen the full trailer yet? It shows the controller being operated as the mech turns on...Looks fantastic!

 

[Jeff Kleist]

[Romier S]

(You may need IGN Insider Access:frowning

 

[James St]

No insider required. Man this game looks awesome. I hope they can put the controller to good use by releasing several games to take advantage of it. Even at the price of a Cube I'll be picking this up whenever it's released.

 

[Jeff Kleist]

Wow, wow, and more wow
I hope the package stays under $150, that's about the max I can swing :frowning:

 

[Derrik Draven]

Maybe they're planning on Steel Batallion sequels, to make the purchase of that awesome controller more worthwhile? I'll be picking it up regardless.

 

[Calvin Watts III]

Man, I really want this, & I want this to be good....
