This game radiates cool

by tag_1234 , Apr 28 '00
Pros: great graphics, nice weapon selection, great feel, overall good gameplay

I have long been a fan of the Mech Warrior series. This newest edition is a quantum leap ahead of the others.

Setup
Installation was nice and painless off of the CD. The autorun feature took care of everything and in a few...

Tanks with Legs, who could ask for more?

by Evan1300 , Oct 23 '00
Pros: Almost everything, graphics/sound/play, is great
Cons: A few bugs and a not up to par multiplayer
I wasn't quite sure what to expect when I first purchased Mech Warrior 3. The box made the game look great so I gave in and broke the piggy bank. I was definitely not disappointed.

Graphics:
My video card is fairly...

Great game, but a bit on the short side

by kschang , Jun 27 '00
Pros: Nice graphics, good campaign story
Cons: Tedious salvage and mech design, lousy AI
I have played all Mechwarrior games, including the very first one from Dynamix and Activision. So when Mechwarrior 3 came out, I know I must have it, and I was only slightly disappointed by it.

Mechwarrior 3 puts you as the leader of Damocles...

In MW3, SOS means "Same Old Strategy"

by Zoplax , Aug 14 '00
Pros: Eye Candy. Ear Candy. Candy Dandy.
Cons: Artificial Insubordination! My dog could pilot a 'mech better!
I've been a fan of MechWarrior since I played one of the first releases on my venerable old 386. Back then, graphics were very much stick-figures, weapons all made the same annoying "chirp", and remarkably 40-ton 'mechs made an almost friendly...

MechWarrior 3

by phungus, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, May 06 '01
Pros: Good graphics, great sound, lots of options
Cons: Kind of easy
Mechwarrior 3 is the followup to the highly successful Mechwarrior 2 PC game. Earlier this year, Mechwarror 4 was released. Needless to say, the Mechwarrior series of games has been very successful, and are also very fun. In each game, you pilot a...

Well, it WAS fun.

by kfj001 , Dec 28 '00
Pros: The next in the Mechwarrior series of games.
Cons: Repeative gameplay, short experence, lousy multiplayer.
History
I’m not a fantastic lover of the Mechwarrior, err, Battletech universe (think Dungeons and Dragons without either component, replace with 30 ton war robots). I never played the paper game, but the PC game caught my attention back in...

Exciting single-player moments

by najdorf , May 08 '00
Pros: Single player tons of fun, mechs rule!
Cons: Too short, uneven difficulty, multiplayer not great
I never played the original Mechwarrior games or other similar games, so I can't compare this game to those. But from the first time I played this game, I thought "why have I never done this before?"; there is so much visceral fun in stomping...

A great game!

by jonathan_giam , Apr 08 '00
Pros: Great graphics, gameplay
Cons: Requires good control of the mouse, preferably played with a joystick
Wow. That was the first thing that crossed my mind when I started the game. Even on a not-so-good STB Velocity128 card, the graphics were incredible. The sounds were great, and the controls were easy. All you need to know is in the tutorial, which takes...

You can't keep a bad clan down. The Smoke Jaguars

up to you to hop in your trusty mech and invade one of
their last remaining strongholds and snuff out any threat

The Tradition Lives On

by Prozaque , Jul 14 '00
Pros: graphics and sound, great combo of tactics and action, number of options
Cons: some cumbersome controls
Just recently I borrowed Mech Warrior 3 from a friend. Before firing it up, I was aware that the Mech Warrior series had a reputation of excellence. However, I was not sure if this reputation was still being maintained in Microprose's latest release....

Not What I expected

by Bopher , Aug 24 '00
Pros: Good Graphics, Easy gameplay
Cons: Lousy on the difficulty level
Out of the Mech series I felt this was one of the easiest Mech games to figure out and play. It took me about two or three days to figure out how to play the game. And it took me about a week or two to finish the game. User interface was easier to...

Well fellow gamers, the third game for the Mech arsenal is here! This game looks to be the best MechWarrior yet.
