    If you dig mechs and brawling you definitely need this game. I was fortunate enough to get into the beta but didnt want to review anything till release day. The arcade(story) mode is great fun. It does have a Saturday morning cartoon feel the devs were going for. The online modes are great and you can tell the devs have been listening. My favorite is the 4 mech fights.

My favorite is the 4 mech fights. I'm sure a lot are very happy with the split screen option as well. Congratulations to The Balance Inc. for the many years of hard work and an extremely fun game I look forward to spending a lot of hours on. Highly recommended.… Expand

    Its....fine. That's about all I can say about it, it's fine. The robot designs are varied, they all have really cool special moves, the ability to trash an entire city during a fight is so much fun, and the added 4 players controlling 1 robot is an awesome idea that really channels all those Power Ranger fantasies we all had as kids.

But that's the problem, the combat system is tailored for literally just that. It's very tactile and stiff, it's like playing Rock 'em Sock'em robots with specials. The single player just becomes a mindless button mashing affair with no real depth.… Expand

    Despite these flaws, Override: City Mech Brawl is a funny and lighthearted brawler title for everyone, and it's another multiplayer option during a time when consoles seem to be shying away from local cooperative play. It's a title that doesn't take itself too seriously, and it does a solid job of bringing lighthearted giant robot fun to consoles.

    Override: Mech City Brawl shows a very nice gallery of giant robots, but unfortunately it does not offer the impactfull experience that we expected.
