Random PC Game: Mechwarrior 4: Vengeance

Go Mechs!

heh the mw4 games were ok .. nostalgia ftw at least

Now THIS is a mech game reboot I would pay full retail price for. DAY ONE.

edit: LOL love it when Vinny slams greedy publishers and $DLC at 18:00 in.

Nice! Time to watch this while I crank out the Skyrim Thieves Guild quests.

This is great, woulda loved it if it was MW2.

I just ate three Mars bars and I'm really tempted to go for the fourth. I'm a terrible person.

I'll save everyone a step; Here's the Saitek X52 Flight Stick they're using:

Wow! - certainly worth $50 !

Yay!

I was in a clan for this game when I was fucking 12 years old or so (born in 1990). I always played on no-heat servers because I loved just putting a bunch of Clan LRs and Clan ER Large Lazers and Clan ER PPC cannons. Because fuck yeah.

Weird. 5 and a half minutes in and I just realized, I've been listening to the FMV actors rather than listening to the guys commentary....oh wait. I think my brain was to remember that I played this game! No wonder it seemed so familiar. I'm not weird.

@crusader8463: Do it!

@Nadafinga: That's the thing Vinny picked up from Craigslist? Man for 50 bucks, that's a steal.

Man I love these Random PC game videos so much. Please don't ever stop making them!

These videos always deliver.

Engage rotation....chk chk chk rrggghggghgh.

Had no idea this happened! This game is a ton of fun. I love all the sim-type management you have to do.

i love how dave refers to any part of any game that he likes as "the fun part"

So many talking heads spouting so much nonsense...

Man, nothing beats putting a whole bunch of Clan LBX-20s on an assault-class mech and then knocking over lighter mechs by firing all of them at the same time point-blank.

I only really ever played Mechwarrior 3 so Its nice to finally see what the fourth looked like.

also, I found it to be kinda weird hearing everyone saying my name like we knew each other.

Damn I miss mech assault....so a god damn good game.

I got home tonight wondering what I was going to do. Saw this on the update panel, clicked it expecting 45 minutes. 1 hour and 10 minutes. fuckyea.jpg

Thanks guys, now I am forced to go and put Robot Jox into my Netflix DVD que.

He paid $60. *wink*

I used to be a mechwarrior like you, then I took a PPC to the leg joint servo.

Vinny picking on Dave about the word "chassis" was hilarious.

Chassess

Somewhere in my house is a copy of Mechwarrior 4 that I have to find now!

<3 Random PC Game <3

Some rocking fuckin' tunes in here.

I bought this game around when it came out, and despite being in my early teens, it was still way over my head. I had a basic flight stick, but man, I got to the dropship mission, and just got completely overwhelmed by how many enemy mechs there were in combination with the time limit on the mission.

Never got past that dropship mission, and watching this video, I feel totally alright about that. This mission is a lot harder than the previous two.

Dude, mechs and FMW. What's not to love?!

Such a great game.

Vinny and Dave you are both hilarious. Thank you.

i love this game, this is like my number one favourite game, thanks for doing this

I couldn't help but cringe at some of the mythology errors they said. Oh I read too many of those books. That said glad they played it.

@Nadafinga: Aha, thanks. Input devices from the future. Oh wait...

Anyways, great show. I can't believe how nicely this held up, especially since I don't even have any huge nostalgia for these types of games even though I do respect them. Here's hoping the avalanche of new mech games holds something good for me.

I have to admit i was ragin pretty hard in the live stream chat yesterday at their antics in the Mechlab and unwilingness to use all the weapons. But my excuse is I was slighly drunk. All in good fun.

love to see Vinny bring in his flight stick and baseball cap for some Freespace 2

My fiance was just playing this last week for HOURS

"What else can you order that lady to do?" Classic Vinny.

If we ever face losing Alaska to the Russians, I know who I'm calling: Hardcore Dave, Vin-Dog and Warthog Master Drew in their slick Luchamech; AVENGE ME SON!!!!!!!! AVENGE ME!!!!!!!!!!

"You want giraffe camo? Buy it from gamestop and get giraffe camo."

Vinny, I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

Three things:

1. Dave has a binder of random pc games. I would worship this as my bible
2. I need a flight stick for all the upcoming mech games, and
3. I would pay $5 a month just for the Random PC Game feature

I once had a bad case of fang wang.

Loved playing this game way back when

a more simple time

Never really played 4, was more of a 2 and 3 guy. MUST WATCH.
