This is a great game for those who love monster machines that you can customize and blow others' machines up. It is pretty much a shooter with a little of RPG in it. It doesn't follow a linear storyline but it pretty much has 3 different endings (from what I've been able to play with). Wasn't able to test the multiplayer capability though. Great to play if you want a change of pace. If you play it 4 to 5 hours a day...you'll finish the game in a week. People that play counter-strike will enjoy this as well as people that just likes big robots. The only drawback to this game is since that it is quite old...it doesn't recognize wireless mice very well. You will need to use one of those corded mice to play this game. You will receive an error if you try to play the game using a wireless mouse. Overall this game has great playability and can keep you entertained for a long time. It's one of those games that you can always come back to even after you've finished it. So I'm giving it a 4 out of 5. P.S. The Mech Paks are a must. They're kind of pricey...but if you can find some affordable ones...I do recommend to buy it.Read full review
Game Play 4 of 5 stars Graphics 3 of 5 stars Sound 4 of 5 stars A.I. 3 of 5 stars Pros: Cons: Overall: This is a good title and will provide several hours of entertainment. Had to install an automatic update to allow the game to resume from pause mode after a saved game load. Please note: this title was reviewed using a Dell XPS Gen 4, P4 HT @ 3.20 GHz, 4 Gig RAM, Dual 160 SATA RAID(0) hard drives and a nVidia GeForce 6800 256mb PCIe video adapter. It is important to read and understand the minimum and recommended system requirements for any PC video game. Systems that are faster than the minimum may provide significantly better performance and improve your gaming experience. Some PC video games list specific video card requirements and will not function without. It is also important to mention (because we sell video games on ebay) that we do not sell titles as NEW once they are opened and installed for testing. Most test games find a home with one of our testors (employees) and in rare circumstances, we will sell clearly marked as opened and used.Read full review
I decided to buy this game because, frankly, it's the most well-loved Battletech game yet released as far as I knew. The graphics are pretty good for the time and the level of difficulty reasonable. The control system is the only part I dislike, but I don't see how else they could have arranged the controls so they make sense. The ability to choose and customize your 'Mechs makes this an excellent game. If Mechassault and Mechassault 2 for XBOX had this ability, I would rate them above Mechwarrior 4 for their arcade-style of gaming(I really wish MW4 allowed you to repair armor in-game for instance), but as it is Mechwarrior 4 is my favorite of the Battletech series of games. I'll be looking for the rest of the series later.

Worked good in window 7 Pre. Old game, but great. I found I could MW free down load, but No CD's. In this case you need the Cd in your computer. If you with-out a group this game is tops. New up-grades are available who want to play in a team. 6 years playing MW. This is where I got Star Warrior from. It can be habit forming. Go for it :)
