MechAssault 2 Lands on the Web
And at retail too, in case you missed it.
There's something reassuring about wanton destruction within the comfortable confines of a videogame and this is a large part of the reason why mech games are so popular among certain audiences.
But rote carnage also lends itself to tedium, which is why the developers of MechAssault 2: Lone Wolf at Day One Studios have opted to include a comprehensive story-based campaign and the new ability to get out of your giant mechanical armour.
To be sure, the online components are still there and, to help maintain the community that's so vital to games such as this, Microsoft has launched an official site for MechAssault 2: Lone Wolf.
Here you'll be able to meet up with other Xbox Live players from around the world, organise clans for galactic domination in Conquest mode or simply catch up on the latest news and tactics.
MechAssault 2: Lone Wolf is out only for Xbox now.
Look for Kikizo's full review of the game on Monday.
