This news article came up last July, and then after that, nothing!

waiting on this one myself. i think it was originally supposed to happen around the first of the year. hope ms hasn't backed out. mw4 plus all its expansions (minus mercs) is the only mw i never got.

can't wait to see what smith&tinker have cooked up for the new one either. the ign article was pretty exciting.

MechWarrior 4: Mercenaries was re-released for free at MekTek.net, crashing it within hours.
