Mech2's expansion is a great game.

I have never seen so many mechs in one game of all the mech games I have played this is the only one with a large ammount of mechs includeing the common mechs now Timber Wolf, Dire Wolf, Atlas, and my personal favorite mech the Elemental not a mech but a body armor hehe 1 star of those vs a Dire Wolf is a great fight :)

The Single Player missions are pretty good they take a while to beat as you are a Mercenary you can higher lance mates and you have contracts for decideing where you fight. The ability to choose where you fight is very nice considering some of the battles are right out of battletech history :) so you can play out history instead of just reading it.

The online gameplay is good they have improved alot over mechwarrior2's online gameplay which had the DFA bug and several other small bugs to my knowledge there is not as many bugs in this game.

Another thing that is very nice is that they upgraded the graphics in this version and the 3dfx version. The previous version did not have that good of graphics.

Good things:

Lots of Mechs
You choose where you fight in single player
very few bugs
Updated Graphics

Bad Things:
Well far as I can see there are none besides the fact that your a Mercenary and personnaly I perfered the Clan Story line over the Merc.

If your like me and like battletech things, this is it. It's pretty cheap to buy but is really good and has some really good missions. And it's almost exactly like the battletech board game. It has all of the rules. And the cool option is that you can override the shutdown. This game rocks!

Mechwarrior 2 remains one of my fondest gaming memories. This is the game that made giant robot fighting fun and exciting. In it's time it was the pinnacle of gaming technology, using advanced 3D graphics and real time lighting. The gameplay was also excellent, combining an epic story, detailing one mercenary groups exploits before and during the clan invasion. While you where free to pick and choose jobs that suited you, certain jobs had to be taken eventually to advance the story. Over the course of the game, you will find yourself waging war in the various border skirmishes between the great houses, fighting for fame and fotune in the Solaris VII arenas, and doing your part in stopping the clan juggernaught. The fact that the game gave you choices is what makes this game stand out. No longer where you forced to do the right thing. At times people who you where fighting against would offer you more money if you fight on their side, and the choice to do so is yours.

I would recomend this game to anyone who has ever loved playing the mechwarrior series of games, or anyone who simply enjoys the idea of giant robots fighting other giant robots. You can see how the genre was really created, and play the game where you could customize your mechs based upon the Battletech rules of war.

This game was incredibly fun and groundbreaking when it came out. It does not run well in Windows XP unfortunately, although it can be patched to run pretty well. It's amazing how far things have advanced graphics and technology wise in the last decade. That being said, it is still cool to be able to play through again.

This is a great game for beginners and experts on MechWarrior. It's got everything. It has I.S.(Inner Sphere) and Clan 'Mechs. It helps you understand MechWarrior. I repeat, this is a terrific game.

This game is cool! the graphics are awesome [that i think are better than todays graphics, no offense to those who like the newer games.] This is a game you will enjoy for hours. I have the Titan mercs edition but not this version, i'm looking forward to getting Mechwarrior 2: Titanium edition.

This game is fantastic, and because of it's age, will run on older computers. There was a game that came out before this one called Battletech 3: Mechwarrior, but it was really bad. I think it was only 16 colors, if that tells you anything.

The 3D graphics are spartan for today's standards, but if you want to see the first generation of Mech combat, grab this one.
