I think we need someone in here with better info to revise the article. The game was never called "MechWarrior 1" (how would they have known at the time that there would be a MechWarrior 2?), and was in fact titled, BattleTech 2: MechWarrior. It was the sequel to BattleTech, a top-down mission-based combat game (based on the tabletop miniatures game of the same name) that looked a lot like classic tank battle games except that the animation produced the effect of walking legged war machines. BattleTech 2: MechWarrior took it a step further and was a first-person POV combat game combining vector and raster graphics. Both games included the resource/economic management aspects of later games in the series. -- 12.22.250.4 18:57, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Developed by Activision or Dynamix?
I'm researching the games developed by Dynamix, and found that their page lists the game as developed by them, released in 1989 for DOS. Can anyone verify this? Alex 03:27, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
- Confirmed, per MobyGames. Alex 03:28, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
