Question is, slow and clunky or intuitive and natural?

It's not 5, it's apparently "One, the new one".

Looks like you got your wish Ed.

I also love the E for Everyone swearing in the trailer. Way to put up a red flag that you're for sale.

I stumbled across it here: http://arstechnica.com/gaming/news/2009 ... reboot.ars

If it's as they say it is then I'm more excited than the first time I got laid as it won't be some washout bullshit that M$ put out but something much much better. I guess time will tell.

Also I hear they're going to re-release Mechwarrior 4 and all expansions for free! Would be cool to get some practice in before Mech5 gets released :)

Hmmmm didn't see a message about a PM.

Sorry things have been kinda hectic.

What with getting laid off at the end of June, and then my step daughter having her baby last week.

Hey hey NF. What's shakin'?

MW5. Only this time, instead of being hotshot young pilots, we'll be grizzled old men telling the kids about the old days...

Life's good thanks Rock - currently just chilling in EvE with KJ and the gang and was basically waiting for them to announce a new MW game so I am definitely one chuffed bunny this week.

As for playing as grizzled old men I must admit that I'm actually looking forward to it.. finally get to see the game from Messiah's perspective ;)

This is going to be one geriatric get-together.

Ya'll make sure not to break your hips at the same time.

I will probably be getting this; and I will definitely be downloading MW4 when it's available.
