Steel Battalion - Xbox
Who in their right mind would spend $200 on a game?....
well, I think I am
After playing it at E3 with the super duper joystick/pedal setup (tm), I think I'm hooked.
Although I have to admit I'm a sucker for gadgets and god knows that unless there's going to be a Steel Batallion 2 it won't see the light of day again but yet I'm still geeked about this.
Anyone else?

I.........
Same here!!!!!!
I want to get this game so badly. I'm not sure if it's worth it.
I wish there were other games in the horizon that supports this huge controller. I can't see buying this huge controller for only one game!! If there were at least 5 games than I would consider buying this set.

I am getting it but my doubts are more about what I am going to do with such a huge controller than the price. I have enough games cluttering my room without adding this beast but I am an addict and have to try this game out.

I think I am there... Just saw 4 different videos for Tekki (Steel Battalion) from the Capcom Japanese website and it is BETTER than I thought it would be.... Simply incredible.
and, I don't even have an xbox yet.

Does anyone know if this game will be available by itself for use with a controller. I really do want to play the game, but I can't justify paying $200 for one game.

I have mine on preorder for the second wave of this game for Dec. 3. What sucks is none of the stores are going to stock it. They say it's too big and expensive so it's only for preorders.

It's a shame that you couldn't use the controller for MechAssault as well...

Only played it about 10 mins though, from what I played, I wasn't let down.
Took me about 3 to 5 mins to assemble the controller and I was being super careful. Easy to assemble as well. Even comes with a little wrench underneath the main console to screw down the unit.
Like I said, played it about 10 mins, I need to get used to the control scheme but I did manage to take out a few VT's and 2 planes carpet bombing the training facility I'd play more but I'm dead tired and sick

I don't give a crap about Mech games, but Steel Battalion is very cool. I wish more companies would give gamers an "ultimate experience" type of game in other genres.
