    Game looks pretty awesome!! I remember playing MechWarrior many years ago, but disliked the "static" movement of the bots. Hawken seems to be much more dynamic and the gameplay looks pretty fluid. I think it will be a top game when it comes out.

    Good find

    ah MechWarrior...childhood nostalgia. Loved that game!
    This is truly shaping up for the amount on people working on it. Gameplay looks pretty slick. I like how in the interview he mentions that there not into making an overly complicated game, yet not pick up and play at the same time. If they can find that perfect balance this will be a great game! One to watch out for definitely!!!

    Hawken is the second most important PC game I'm looking forward to after Star Trek Excalibur.

    Wow, it's starting to shape up as a somewhat real mech game. I like it. Sounds modular and easy for them to add weapons and such. Hopefully have a mod support kit too for users to make their own maps, weapons, and levels.

    I'm going to assume they are using the Unreal Engine 3, (fonts point to UT3). Other than that, I'd love to see a mech game that stands out.

    The video looks very good. I'm also looking forward for a mech game.
