What is this world coming too. There is a new game that will be coming out for Xbox call Steel Battalion that will be retailing for $250. And that's not a misprint!
I have to admit it does look kinda cool. But it sure as hell doesn't look $250 worth of cool.

My wife would kill me!!! But it does sound cool, the learning curve sounds a little steep though:

Control your VT with an exclusive 40-button simulation controller...


Hell, I have enough problems trying to figure out all of the different button combinations in football. 40 would be a nightmare.

This kind of game will go down very well in Japan, where theyre very big on mecha. Dont know if it will sell as well in Europe and US however!

It reminds me of Street fighter, it's beginning sell price was 7500 Fb (approximatively 187.5 $)
It was not even the street fighter 2 prim turbo beta vs xmen...
