You know every now and then a game comes along which the ‘great’ media game sites slam with bad reviews that goes against every opinion I have about the game. This seems to be one of those such games. Lets get what needs to be said about this game right away, the singleplayer is merely setup as an excuse to unlock weapons and train you for what you will experience later in the multiplayer. Due to this it almost seems like they tacked on the singleplayer at the last minute. However with that being said this is easily the best multiplayer game currently on the 360. There is a lot of depth to be had in the multiplayer and also alot of fun when squad play in the greater war is considered. Chromehound’s online war system can best be described as a better version of Planetside. It really is a game that I can recommend to almost everyone that has a 360. However…you see where this is going once again…it can be horribly slow paced and you must keep that in mind. This is not Zone of the Enders or Zegapain, this is meant to be a tactical mech game as much as a mech game can be without being Steel Batallion (ie. the controller from SB) and depending on the mech you pick in Chromehounds it can be extremely slow paced. If you are looking for an enthralling singleplayer experience go play another game because Chromehounds is not for you.

Pros:
- Best multiplayer game currently on the 360
- Emense depth in multi
- Great for competitive play
- Extremely detailed mechs
- Ultimate lan center tourney game

Cons:
- Staggering learning curve
- Slow paced…and we mean slowwwwww
- Fair amount of server problems
- Rockets possibly overpowered
- Down right bad singleplayer

Overall: A
