The Daily Dose: Hawken

With such titles as Armored Core, MechWarrior and Zone of the Enders HD all being released this year, it's a pleasure to see yet another addition to the list of giant mech piloting games, which seem to be raining down destruction across all platforms lately.

Hawken is an FPS that throws you into the cockpit of your very own, completely customizable mech. The game will be releasing as multiplayer-only, but the best thing is that it is completely free-to-play. So if propulsion jets, rail guns and rockets are your thing, make sure to check out the extended gameplay trailer from Machinima below.

The open beta is scheduled to start on 12/12 of this year.

Seriously though...who doesn't enjoy ripping through twisted metal, while propelling themselves violently across a battlefield?
