    Since it's 2022, all we have left of this game is the single player content. Sadly, I missed the boat on this game when it released almost two decades ago (jeez, where did the time go). From everything I know and have seen, if you played this game for the multiplayer when it was active, it was a solid, above average game.

    That being said, I hope nobody bought it for the single player.    Since it's 2022, all we have left of this game is the single player content.

    That being said, I hope nobody bought it for the single player. Rarely has a game struck me as so boring, slow, and drab that I can barely play for more than 30 minutes before I need to switch it up. It's very clear that the single player was designed as a big tutorial for the multiplayer because although there is a decent selection of missions, each faction your mercenary works for focuses on a different type of mech. The story is very dull and uninteresting, the graphics are outdone by the first MechAssault on the original Xbox, the gameplay is slow and plodding... I have no desire to ever play this again.    … Expand

    My favourite Mech game since MechAssault. Chromehounds offers an insane amount of mech customisation which can lead to very varied mechs and strategies for using them. The campaign was okay but the multiplayer was awesome. The maps were massive and the combat was fun. It's really a shame that the multiplayer servers were taken down.

    Would give an 8 or so for the Multi. 7 or maybe 6 for Single/Campaign. However, with the servers now being down (I miss you, Chromehounds) my favorite builds are unplayable (due to some parts being from the 'online' portion) in Campaign. Oh well, still one of my fav mech games, so many hours in the garage!

    This is a guideline for how to properly review games. Many reviewers like to get a “feel” for a game, and arbitrarily give a game a score that they believe it deserves. This results in wildly different scores between different reviewers, and vastly different scores between similar games. This guideline addresses these problems and scores games fairly and consistently. This guideline also gives scores that are usually similar to the metacritic score.

    The review score is based out of 10 points. There are no “half” or 0.5 increments. It is impossible to have a score above 10 or below 0. The review score will change as the game gets new dlc, drops in price, or if more secrets are found through the game increasing its appeal.

    The scoring is split into 6 sections. The first five sections can add a possible 2 points to the final score. The first 5 sections are Single Player/Multi Player, Gameplay, Visuals/Story, Accessibility/Longevity, and Pricing.

    Notice that 3 of these sections have two parts. These particular sections will be scored based on the stronger part of the game of the two. For example, if a game has a lousy single player campaign, but an excellent multiplayer component, that section will be based solely on the multiplayer as if the single player did not exist. This allows games to be based on their own merits, as many unnecessary features are shoehorned into video games by publishers to reach a “feature quota”. Games that excel in both areas of a section don’t receive should be noted in the written review, but cannot increase the score past 2 in that section. However, it can be taken into account in the final section

    The final section can add 1, add 0, or subtract 1 to the final score. This final section is the “wildcard” section. This section is for how the reviewer “feels” about the game, but limits this only to this section, rather than the entire 10 point review. This section can include any positive or negative point that was not covered in the previous 5 sections.    … Expand

Online in this game is a blast if you can find a squad (the Chromehounds version of Halo 2 clans) which is easy if you have any friends. I have to say the single player is not the greatest but you can get a better gamerscore; who can complain. The achievments probably look the coolest out of any 360 game right now; they are medals that you would see on a military person. This game is a must have for Live sence you can have 6 vs. 6.

    Doesn't seem like a "pick up and play" game. I rented this and didn't have the patience. It takes forever to get anywhere. I think my problem was that I wanted to build my own mech, but I couldn't get my hands on enough parts. I'll stick to the fast paced MechAssault games.

    I've managed to log over 100 hours into Chromehounds. I believe that there's a certain breaking point for all games. To reach this breaking point you must play said game for X amount of hours. When you reach this point, you KNOW exactly how good the game is. Until then it's all speculation. So here's a review of Chromehounds from someone that's seen all it has to I've managed to log over 100 hours into Chromehounds. I believe that there's a certain breaking point for all games. To reach this breaking point you must play said game for X amount of hours. When you reach this point, you KNOW exactly how good the game is. Until then it's all speculation. So here's a review of Chromehounds from someone that's seen all it has to offer, good and bad. First off, I'd like to point out that I'm completely disregarding the single player missions. They were obviously tacked onto a game that was originally meant solely for Xbox live play. Chromehounds is a game where you build your own robotic war machine from scratch, and then battle with it on Xbox live. Every hound part has a plethora of stats, including health, energy usage, and weight. Legs play a role in determining how fast you go, and how heavy your hound can be. Faster leg models can't carry many parts, and are easily destroyed. Slower leg models carry more parts, and can take a beating. The generator determines how much of a power supply you have. Each part in the game requires a set amount of energy to run it. If your generator cannot supply enough power to your hound (or if it is destroyed in battle), then the overall performance of your hound will go down. Your cockpit determines how tough your hound is, and how many advanced computer chips you can add to your hound. Each part of a hound can be destroyed, but the hound will continue to operate until the cockpit is destroyed. Computer chips modify things such as speed, stability, and aiming. Lighter cockpits are easily destroyed, but can hold lots of computer chips. Heavier cockpits take a beating, but allow fewer computer modifications. Weapons range from Sniper Cannons to Anti-Hound Piles. Sniper weapons have a long range of attack, but reload slowly with low damage output. Anti-Hound Piles are extremely close range melee weapons that deal enormous damage. Shotguns, Rifles, Missiles, HEAT Rockets, and Cannons are mid-range weapons with fast reload times. Rocket pods fire off a cluster of rockets. They can be used to bombard a wide area, or to pummel an opponent up close. Artillery shells travel slowly in an arc towards their target. A direct hit with these weapons is devastating, and just being in the vicinity of a blast will damage your hound. Chromehounds has a wide variety of maps. Just about any environment on earth can be found in chromehounds. There's deserts, cities, arctic tundra, mountains, valleys etc. To communicate in chromehounds you have a set radio area. Wonder outside of this area, and you can no longer communicate with your squad-mates. There are radio towers located all over each map. You can expand your radio area by capturing these towers. Only one team can be in control of a certain radio tower at a time. Capturing enemy radio towers can shut down your opponent's communications, and expand your own radio area. If you want you can attach a radio tower onto your hound. It creates it's own radio area, and acts as a radar. You can see enemy, and friendly units within the range of your radio area, and the radio area of any radio towers that you control. Radio towers are extremely heavy though, and require a lot of power to run. Hounds equipped with a radio tower are essentially handicapped due to the sap in resources. There are three ways to win a game in Chromehounds. They are: Destroy all enemy hounds. Discover and destroy the enemy base. Be in control of the most radio towers when time runs out. Before you can destroy the enemy base you must find it. There are five potential enemy bases on most maps. Only one of them is the real deal. The rest are decoys. Once you have found an enemy base there are three ways to blow it up. The first and least effective way is to have your hounds fire upon it until it is destroyed. The second way is to direct artillery fire at it. Once artillery starts hitting the base it goes down rather quickly. The trick is to have the skill required to properly aim the artillery shells (more into that later). The third and most effective way is to run up to it with a speedy mech, and use close range melee weapons to bash it to pieces. This is known as Pile rushing, and generally destroys a base in about thirty seconds. The actual game states that there are six role-types in chromehounds. But in reality players will invent hound to their liking. Here is a quick sampling of some the hounds you will encounter online. The info gatherer: In chromehounds firepower is what matters the most. A team with too many support roles will often lose a match, due to the other team simply strong-arming them. Because of this many players choose to combine the Radar Mech, and the Scout mech into one. A scout's job is to attack the base, and capture radio towers. A Radar Mech's job is to monitor the enemy. A speedy scout mech with an extremely small radar dish can easily perform both jobs. The radio area starts out tiny, but grows bigger as more radio towers are taken by the speedy mech. You can use the radar dish to know where enemies are located, go around them, and pound the base into rubble. The close range combat mech: This type of mech is all about getting in your face, and blowing the crap out of you. It just needs to get close enough to hit you. These mechs range from speedy and weak, to slow and tough. These are the most common mechs in the game, and are the easiest to use. The long range fighter: This type of mech uses either Sniper Weapons, or Artillery fire (or both!) to attack the enemy from a distance. Artillery fire travels slowly, but can be devastating. Sniper fire travels fast but does mediocre damage. This type of mech can be highly effective on it's own, but it really shines when it teams up with a close range combat mech. The close range combat mech distracts, and stalls the enemy while the long range mech pummels it from afar. This form of teamwork makes hitting enemies much easier for the long range fighter, and gives the close range combat mech fire support. When you first go online with the game you will be prompted to join a squad. Until you do so you will not be able to participate in the Nerioumous War. The N. War is a war between three enemy nations. Each nation has it's own set of parts. It is recommended to visit all three nations to get every part in the game. Every nation has a number of players that are fighting for that nation. The nations fight for territory within the world. Each map is a different territory. Each win gives your country a set amount of capture points on that particular map. Enough capture points and you take a territory. Once you take a territory, you move onto the next territory until you reach the enemy Capitol. Once you take the enemy capital, all that nation's territory goes to your nation. The goal of the game is to be the last country standing, and conquer the world. A squad is a clan, or group of people that you play with. You can not be part of more than one squad at a time. Think of your squad as your basketball team. You go into every match with them, and must learn to work together in order to win. Every team-member has only one life. Once you're dead, you're dead for the rest of the match. So teamwork, and being careful is essential. Luckily it takes a good number of shots to bring a hound down. Think of it like destroying a vehicle in Halo 2. Some weapons get the job done in three shots, and some take a seemingly endless volley. It just depends on the weapon, and the toughness of the enemy hound. Ok so now that we know what the game is about I'll go into some of the positives, and negatives of the game. The positives: The game offers almost endless customization, with a mostly balanced system. The controls are easy to use. Playing against the computer in co-op mode is extremely fun. New parts are released every few weeks. The squad system ensures that you always team up with people that you are familiar with. No more random pickup games between strangers. Adding a speed modification chip solves the slow movement problem that most reviewers hate. The negatives: PvP matches of ten or more players will almost never connect. Humans will often employ a number of cheap tactics that defeats the game's promotion of teamwork. For example artillery shells can be attached to a fast moving chassis with devastating results. (Artillery shells should really only be usable by heavy slow AT-AT like mechs IMO.) When shooting an opponent with long range weapons the game lag can cause you to miss a lot (this only happens in PvP matches). The same nation seems to win almost every war. Sometimes you will be forced to pay money for some of the new parts. You cannot play online with friends that you brought over to your house. Unless you have multiple 360's at home and the right Internet setup, it's a single player game. The firing interface with artillery weapons is lacking a good rang-finding scope. As a result only the best players can use artillery from halfway across the map with any effect. Overall Chromehounds is a wonderfully deep, and addictive game, with a few minor setbacks. If the servers were to get fixed, and artillery shells nerfed the game would be an absolute must have. If you're a fan of mech games, or complexity you'll love Chromehounds. Update: The patch has made getting into human matches much easier. The game still lags with 6v6 people hardly get dropped. Score= 9.3… Expand

    I just love the ADD idiots here. Do us all a favor and go continue to jizz-off to your Halo 2 Collector's Edifiton. Just because a game doesn't fit your style of gameplay, say ADD-bearable, doesn't mean it's a bad game. And having a completely one-sided view is also a great indication of your retardness. Please, get laid people.

    Overall the gameplay is pretty forgettable and is only saved by the interesting ideas presented online. [JPN Import]

    Chromehounds is really, really, really boring to play...Not one that I can imagine Xbox 360 players sticking with for more than a handful of hours tops, no matter how starved they are for new releases at the moment.

    Unfortunately, with such drab presentation and predictable gameplay, there isn't enough to sustain interest for long.
