"It is exciting being inside a big hulking Mech armed to the teeth will all sorts of arsenal and lasers. This series pathed the way for games like Titanfall, Battletech, and Strike Suit Zero. The game starts with a much-needed short tutorial. I felt was essential as the last time I played Mechwarrior was that 1995 release of Mechwarrior 2 which was 26 years ago." Iain @ Thumb Culture

It's there for PS too. This is an xbox site though so it just mention MS platforms much like how dualshockers and other PS sites omit mentions of Xbox for multi-plat games.
An interview with piranha games president Russ Bullock about MechWarrior Online and MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries.
The console controls kinda hamper the experience. I think it's because a lot of people will go in thinking it's going to control like the Titanfall mechs. There is no strafing in the traditional sense. You can't just move left to right to strafe and avoid being hit. Besides that I kinda got the hang of it and started to enjoy the game. This is really a mech/mecenary sim but you have an Instant Action mode if you just want to play a quick match. For $30 it's got some content.
