right off the bat, put the weapon you plan on using the most in your mech's left hand. it's much easier to use while boosting that way.
and with that out of the way, i can 100% suggest you buy this ASAP. the gameplay is very fun if you like mech games (or even if you don't, i didn't before playing this and now iv'e been playing basically non-stop) and the amount of customization you have on your mech is in depth enough to have me tweaking my loadout a bit for specific missions but not so in depth that i need 2 spread sheets and a calculator to figure out which pair of mech legs is the most efficient. my biggest gripe with the game however is that it can get a bit repetitive at points, and while it's still fun its worth noting at least.
if you are even remotely interested by this game, then try out the demo and if you like what you see then trust me, it gets a lot better later.

the game was fine. just fine. nothing special really, if you like pinball games and just about but not quite **** then this is right up your alley. that being said, i can not under any circumstances suggest you buy this game, since it's being sold for 40 Us dollars and only has 2 pinball machines that're nearly identical. there are worse games you could spend your money on, but unless you can find a copy for around 15-20 bucks just avoid the game
