Shogo: Mobile Armor Division 1998

Is it still worth playing?

Monolith Productions' 1998 first person shooter, which mixes on foot shooting with combat in anime style bipedal mechs. You play Sanjuro Makabe, a Mobile Combat Armor pilot and commander in the United Corporate Authority army, during a brutal war for the planet Cronus and its liquid reactant, kato. The mechs are controlled essentially like the on foot shooting, so a giant robot and a soldier share the same simple controls. The combat system includes critical hits: attacking an enemy will occasionally give you a health bonus while the enemy loses more health than usual, though enemies can score critical hits on you too. It is still easy to pick up, since two kinds of combat share one set of controls.
