I went on Mech Assault online for the first time in a few months today.

I can't believe how much better it is now with the update they added a few days ago. Finally! No more drop-outs!

Capture the flag was amazingly fun with great team spirit (apart from when I didn't remember what was going on, so assumed because I was on the red team, I had to shoot all the blue names - with very amusing results :D).

Well done to whoever makes the game.

I rented Mech Assault and found it fun to play at first but as I got further on I just wanted to complete it for the sake of it. It does get difficult later on but by that time you are already bored and wanting to turn it off. The 5.1 effects were great and when you turn the jet pack on the Sub really did shake the floor.

Mech Assault does'nt capture me, Maybe cause I just played the demo, it seemed a little "dark" and difficult to see where everything is.

Its probs better on LIVE.

I'd love to see Phantom Crash go online.

Cool, i'll get them then.

Anyway to Mech Assault. Single player is ok but short, wouldnt be worth the money if you had just that mode. XBox Live is pretty good and can be quite addictive.

My problem with Metroid was hype and now I hardly even touch it. Shame really as I started to enjoy it at one point. Its more of a chore to drage myself to play it rather than a joy and I really wish it was the other way round.

Think I was expecting too much of it and ended up disappointed. Zelda and Metroid have turned out great though.

At least TJ&E 3 isn't based around cleaning it up eh ?

If I wanna clean up crap I'll work for the council.

Mech Assault's rather poor - you'd be wise to opt for the superior Phantom Crash. Alternatively, Armoured Core 3 on PS2 is the best of 'em all.
