With a completely in-house designed engine, the OMF series has made a smooth transition into the realm of 3D, with both the arenas and robots being fairly detailed and varied. Unfortunately, the payoff is that not all the robots from the original made the switch to 3D, as some robots such as Flail and Shadow simply couldn't be modeled or would have taken far too much effort to pursue. However, the freedom allowed by the truly 3D environment, unlike some of the primarily side-on experience of recent games, quickly overcomes any such regrets. And with a promising soundtrack adding in some nice beats, OMF promises untold hours of metal-bashing entertainment.
It's certainly been quite a while since a decent beat-em-up was released on the PC, and this one is all about laying down the smack with a multitude of attacks and combos. Due by the first quarter of 2003, check back here for more updates as we keep tabs on this promising title. For now, check out these sweet screenshots we took from the latest beta build.
