    Hawken has never been a terrible game, but it has never made a case for itself as anything more either. This console version puts up even less of a fight.

Although the dark and dirty maps can get repetitive, the various alterations on the mechs can support dozens of hours of casual fun gameplay with no need for and cash to be spent (also I have never spent a penny on Hawken).… Full Review »
