![]() If you enjoyed the first storyline, you’ll probably hate this one. To celebrate the BattleTech Universes 25th anniversary, a free release of MechWarrior 4 was planned, but legal red tape held the release back by a year. Apparently, unlike your experiences in MechWarrior 4: Vengeance, Ian is just a bumbling idiot who inflicted pain and suffering on the people in the wake of the recent civil war. An expansion pack, MechWarrior 4: Black Knight, was released on October 31, 2001, and a subsequent stand-alone expansion, MechWarrior 4: Mercenaries was released in November 7, 2002. Assuming that the first game ended poorly, your missions as a Black Knight Legionnaire take you back to Kentares IV to fight the newly elected Ian Dresari. The biggest flaws come in the storyline and lack of new material, this game really fails to add anything interesting to the MechWarrior universe. Once you play, it’ll be obvious that the new mechs that they’ve added with the Black Knight pack are excellent choices, ones that really add to the flavor and choices you have at your disposal. Windows 98/Me/2000, PC with 300 MHz equivalent or higher processor, DirectX 8.0 or later compatible sound card, DirectX 8.0 API (included with MechWarrior 4: Vengeance) or later, 64 MB RAM, DirectX 8.0 or later compatible 8 MB VRAM PCI or AGP video card that supports Direct3D API, 650 MB available hard disk space for typical install, 125 MB of hard disk for swap file, 8x speed or faster CD-ROM drive, and a mouse or compatible pointing device.
