So I was browsing my Tumblr feed earlier today and came across a post: http://charlieboy808...o-add-one-of-my

It's quite funny when you think about it.

Creating those things was waaaaaaay harder back in the day and yet when you look at it today, you see how primitive it really was.

Still, one can't help but be in ave as to how original people got with solving problems back in the day. Musicians who had to do 8-bit music, artists who had to use super tiny sprites and still have it look like something (perfect example is C&C:TD infantry, altough that is way after the 8-bit era) from real life and even go as far as being relatable to, et cetera.

I have to agree OP since I played all the old PC MechWarrior games MWO is by far the best MechWarrior game ever in the aspects of visuals-animations-and sound. What it lacks is all the rest of what MechWarrior was first a live community chat room-second a lobby launcher and private matches-third PVE mission and Co-op missions. There is more just because you make the game pretty does not mean it will be successful .Plus that image is the original Mechwarrior1 from 1985.This was mechwarrior2 in 1989. Posted Image
