Jonathan Bester from ITF Gaming writes: From Capcom and From Software comes Steel Battalion Heavy Armor. A Kinect-enabled game with a difference. Steel Battalion Heavy Armor puts you in the shoes of a mech pilot, whose job it is to utilise a war-machine to complete various tasks, blow stuff up and above all… complete your mission by moving your arms around and pantomiming the actual movements that could be featured within a mech (or VT as it is called in-game). However is Steel Battalion the gaming title that every mech player has been longing for? Or does it fall flat on its mechanised face? Let's find out!
Eurogamer:
"Heavy Armor might be the perfect Kinect game, or at least, the most honest, because it reveals how interesting life can be when technology gets in your way. Green-lighted way back when Kinect was known as Project Natal, the game posits a near-future in which a silicon-guzzling microbe has devoured every computer on the planet, setting back the science of combat to roundabouts the close of the first world war. Deprived of GPS, drones and other decadent trappings of 21st century warfare, the Earth's nations are obliged to duke it out in gas-powered mechs or "vertical tanks" that handle as elegantly as elephants in high heels."
And the reason that it was one of From Soft's worst games is that it was tied to poor game accessory.
As much as I like From's Souls games, I'm hoping they release another Armored Core at some point.
...just had to throw that out there
It always seems like the video game industry can’t go a single week without handling death threats of some sort. At this point, they almost come with the territory for game developers, critics, or anyone else a select few people don’t like. However, the only way a person who receives death threats can combat them is by doing absolutely nothing.

We've compiled a list of these aberrations so that you don't ever have to play them yourself."
I really thought the picture of the horse was a real game. Not even sure why I'm disappointed it isn't ;/ Also, Survivor? What's the real aim of the game? Survive the opening credits?
duke nukem forever should of made the list, a game 10yrs in developement and ended up looking like a 2000 title.
If they just made the game like the original or even copied it, it would have sold like crazy. Nope, Capcom just has to poop out this steamy mess of a game and ruin any possiblity of a worthy successor to steel battalion and steel battalion line of contact.
