STN:
Futuristic bipedal tanks have been the mainstay of computer games for a very long time, with titles like Armoured Core and Battlezone allowing us to step into huge attack craft from our not so distant future. Back in early 2000’s the Xbox was fortunate to be the platform of choice for Steel Battalion, now a collectors dream that it included a bedroom hogging control panel full of dials and levers that looked imposing and added an all new element of immersive gameplay. Well now years later and fully into the lifecycle of the Xbox 360, Capcom return to this post-apocalyptic future and bring the Kinect along for good measure, with this time instead of physical interaction we now pull and push imaginary levers.

"Heavy Armor might be the perfect Kinect game, or at least, the most honest, because it reveals how interesting life can be when technology gets in your way. Green-lighted way back when Kinect was known as Project Natal, the game posits a near-future in which a silicon-guzzling microbe has devoured every computer on the planet, setting back the science of combat to roundabouts the close of the first world war. Deprived of GPS, drones and other decadent trappings of 21st century warfare, the Earth's nations are obliged to duke it out in gas-powered mechs or "vertical tanks" that handle as elegantly as elephants in high heels."
And the reason that it was one of From Soft's worst games is that it was tied to poor game accessory.
As much as I like From's Souls games, I'm hoping they release another Armored Core at some point.
...just had to throw that out there
It always seems like the video game industry can’t go a single week without handling death threats of some sort. At this point, they almost come with the territory for game developers, critics, or anyone else a select few people don’t like. However, the only way a person who receives death threats can combat them is by doing absolutely nothing.

I really thought the picture of the horse was a real game. Not even sure why I'm disappointed it isn't ;/ Also, Survivor? What's the real aim of the game? Survive the opening credits?
duke nukem forever should of made the list, a game 10yrs in developement and ended up looking like a 2000 title.
enough with the ?/6 scores. that scale is absurd.
and yeah, the game is crap
