Battledrome is another release in Dynamix's
MetalTech giant-robots universe. The game is strong enough to be able
to stand on its own without the more popular Battletech license. Unfortunately,
most gamers passed this by in favor of titles such as the MechWarrior
brand. Designed primarily as a head-to-head giant robots fighting game,
it succeeds in capturing the frantic, tonnage-for-tonnage feel of a giant
robots deathmatch. The two-player aspect of Battledrome (network or modem)
is a lot fun and ahead of its time as a predecessor to Activision's NetMech.
Not surprisingly, the single-player mode is quite disappointing due to
its lack of campaign or career mode of any kind. |
