Not really There was a mech combat game for the Xbox (Mech Assault AFAIK) which is a Battletech game but it's a bit more arcade-ish, not really a simulation.

There have been other Mech-like games: Chromehounds got sorta meh reviews, and there's also the Armored Core series, also for the 360. But really I haven't found a single mech game that had the same charm as the MW series.

Yeah, that's why I only liked the first half of it. Hopping around on rooftops and such was crazy fun. If they kept it like that for the second half of the game, it would've been amazing. But the game wasn't built for ease of gunplay, and to throw you repeatedly into close quarters with guys and their M60s.. re-loading 20 times starts getting on your nerves.

Also, there's a Mirror's Edge 2 in development. Let's hope they learn!

Pirates
Elite

I probably forgot something .....

This is almost an "how old are you?" thread.

Betrayal at Krondor - - - The first really immersive pc game I ever encountered was Betrayal at Krondor.  Its quality partly derived from the fact that the author of the Rift War series (Feist) helped a lot in game development, making the game play like a new novelette in his story-verse, even to using the cities, cultures, characters, etc. correctly right out of his books.  Many games have come along later that use some of the same stuff, even WoW, but i think the one that pioneered it was Betrayal at Krondor.

Wing Commander --- One of the things that the initial Star Wars (1977) movie did was to make all the settings looked lived in.  If one looks back at earlier sci-fi flicks, everything is new and polished.  Well, after all, they had just made the sets so they WOULD be new.  That trick also has been used again and again since then.  Consider Blade Runner (1982) and even the more recent Fifth Element (1997) and how they benefited from the same approach.  Non-sci-fi flicks had frequently been gritty, but they often used real world settings, etc.  The Wing Commander games brought that same lived-in look to sci-fi games.  MechWarrior 2 - Mercenaries used this well, as one scrimped and plotted to upgrade and survive.  Note that WC3 may have been one of the first games both to use full motion video (FMV) sequences and also to have multiple endings that depended on earlier player choices, like the superlative Deus Ex would do so well so many years later (1994 versus 2000, IIRC)

Privateer --- One of the early open-ended universe games that worked to the point of being so immersive that one was tempted to jump off the plot line and simply go play and explore. 

Hmm...so many games i can think of.

Some of my earlier experiences include Wasteland, Bard's Tale 3, Mars Saga, Mail Order Monsters, Impossible Mission, Summer Games, Red Storm Rising, Gunship, and Legacy of the Ancients. Ironically, these were the days that Electronic Arts (NOT EA) actually had a soul and made good games. It was also an era that required games to be fun and play well cause that's all you really had to go on...graphics were pretty bad.

Once I got into consoles some of the more memerable ones include FF3 (US) 6 (Jpn), Zelda, Metriod, Kid Icarus (even though it was an ungodly hard game) and especially Ninja Gaiden.

Turrican

Turrican II - Final Fight

Populous II

Wing Commander

Star Wars - Rebel Assault

Deus Ex

...

Just a few i can recall.

Nobody mentioned Jet Grind/Set Radio?

Space Channel 5?

Nobody mentioned Toejam and Earl either.....

I think I must just have an unusual understanding about games that were good solely based on a stylistic feel...

Total Annihilation.  How can a RTS from the mid 90's have style?  With ridiculous explosions, unique units, and massive artillery pieces that shoot all the way across the map.  Way better than Supreme Commander.

well, I have to post a second time here.

Warzone 2100- a ground based RTS, has pretty poor graphics, but has an IN-GAME UNIT DESIGNER. You can choose from different hull, propulsion, and weapon/support turret options. A MASSIVE amount of research, where you can think your done and then you get a whole load of stuff thrown at you. Best part- OPEN-SOURCE (FREE!!!!), and only ~50 MB ATM. It has a Skirmish and Campaign mode for SP, and has MP modes as well.

I doubt many of those games have real style. They might be revolutionary in some way, but no where near half of those have any style at all.

Some great games said so far, so I'll add one that I like a lot:

- Dungeons and Dragons: Shadow over Mystara

Probably the best arcade beat-'em-up ever made.

I would say that most of the great/best games have definitively style.

Aiight, some of my games in the list didn't have style, I can understand that.  I'll revise it.

But here is one that does that hasn't been mentioned:

Tron 2.0
