So now that I have XBox Live, I was looking forward to playing Chromehounds online. Although the single player mode didn't have a great deal to it, I thoroughly enjoyed the massive customisability that allowed me to build my own 'Hound' from the ground up.

However, when I went to check something about the game, I stumbled upon the Chromehounds site and found out something that made me curse violently to my self for almost half an hour. The online service for Chromehounds was shut down in January this year.

Can anyone recommend a good XBox 360 game with similar aspects to Chromehounds for my mech building and online playing fancies?

Man, that 'Next' was leaving behind nothing but a swathe of destruction in its wake.

That was a very flashy video, but it did nothing to impress me. I'll take a closer look some time.

But then I have to wait for it to arrive. Not to mention I don't have the money available online to buy online. All I have is $75 in coins and a $5 note until I get paid a week from now.

-kicks Sega and From Software in the proverbial nuts-

I miss my tower. This laptop could probably handle my other games without trouble, but I don't want to have to go through installing them all again and again. It's bad enough that I'm going to have to install them again already when I get my new tower.

-cries-

The Front Mission series is a series of mech war games made by square (now SquarEnix.) the majority of them are turn based stratagy RPGs. But Evolved is going to be action based.

Thanks.

The first one I really liked. Reminded me of this.

The second one kind of discouraged me. If things are going to be that fast passed... I'm going to get my ass handed to me, frequently.

It's bad enough that I suck balls at Halo 3 online, I don't want to play a game that has no point in being played for me. Sad

-sigh- Guess I'll just have to get it and see.
