I've lately been looking through my Xbox collection for something to write my first blog about. And I think I've found it. Mechwarrior 4 is one of my all time favorite games as a child and I had a wonderful time blasting through the first Mechassault. So one time when I was browsing video games at the store with my parents, I saw it. Mechassault 2: Lone Wolf. This game is far better than the first one, and it's an excellent addition to the Battletech series. So, before I get into the actual game itself, here's a couple screenshots:

Now I'm not going to get into the story. I don't want to spoil it for the rest if you.
I've found the game to be quite balanced difficulty wise. There is no different levels of difficulty, they replace this with a very healthy learning curve. I am quite disappointed with their roster of mechs as they only put in the most known mechs such as the Atlas and Mad Cat. The gameplay I've found to be fairly balanced as they do something different here and there that gives it a good replay value. When you partake in the single player campaign with the intention of beating it, one must learn one single thing, always keep moving. A light mech is as good as an assault mech because you can easily dodge enemy fire and sometimes completely avoid missles. Because of that the game is extremely fair and balanced. If you have an Xbox or an Xbox 360 (it's backwards compatible), get a used copy of this game. You will not be dissapointed.
