"Hope this game flops to oblivion."
Any reasoning behind that or are you just the standard, run-of-the-mill hater?
This game looks so friggin' awesome. I am actually excited about a Kinect game not named "Gunstringer!"

Steel Battalion has fashionable pre-order bonuses
It's humorous to see these newly announced pre-order incentives for Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor. So far, everything Capcom has shown points toward a rather bleak-looking game filled with death and destruction. You know what it could use? Brightly colored vertical tanks that just pop. Not that the same criticism can't be said of many other games as well, but it seems particularly worth commenting about here given the tone of Heavy Armor. Three retailers -- Amazon, Best Buy, and GameStop -- each have their own set of armor. Take a look in the gallery below. Did you know?

Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)LOL! I have to admit I love them. Not in a "hey that's a cool little bonus" way but in a "what the hell were they thinking" way. They clash so heavily with the game itself that they're hilarious. Sorry, Steel Battalion. My disdain for Kinect trumps my love of Mech titles. Call me if you brig back the insane controller. @Nevi901
