5.0 out of 5 stars Mech Commander Gold, January 11, 2000

This review is from: Mech Commander Gold (CD-ROM)

Mech Commander the original version was a good enough game, but Mech Commander Gold offers some much welcomed improvements. The original game offers explosive real time action mixed with the need for a cunning stratigic mind as you command up to twelve 'mechs in real time combat. After missions, you repair your mechs and claim salvage with which to plan the next mission. Also, you can purchase new 'Mechs or more experienced pilots to control them. The values of the Gold add-on are new missions, six new 'Mechs an excellent ammo-conservation mode (this alone warrents purchasing Gold) and a nifty waypoint system. All in all I'd say Mech Commander Gold is one of the most enjoyable Mech games on the market. Add to this a large network of Multiplayer Leagues, and the fun continues as you engage in combat with Mech Warriors from around the globe.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Thoughts, January 19, 2004

even though this game will never quite be able to grab the top spot of my favorive RTS game it comes very close on many levels.

Now I like Red Altert and Red Alert 2 more than I like this game but thats not to say that this game is bad, you have to get up preety early in the mroning to get the drop on those 2.

In fact Mechcommander: Gold should be perfect for those people who don't want to waste time building up a strongly fortified base and just want to go doestory stuff.

(With glourious Special Effects and great sound)

That may not be my style but I can relate and if this game sounds like something you might even be remotly interested in I would highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars I've played the original..., May 4, 2000

...and it totally kicks a**, however the game play can be very difficult and take a while to get through. That's not neccessarily a bad thing though, too many times these days games can be beaten in a weeks times. So it's nice to have a game I can keep returning to and continue my challenge. If the 'Gold' is the same as the original only better than you'll be pleased with it for sure. I play on a 450hz AMD-K2 ProStar laptop w/ only 4mb of video power and the graphics are still awesome.
