Shogo: Mobile Armor Division

This game sorely needs to be patched for modern platforms. This is one of my favorite niche games from my childhood, and while this release worked maybe a decade ago on windows 7, it has not worked for a long, long time. Every so often I download it and see if it works yet but unfortunately it is still just borked. I really, really love this game in spite of and because of its of-the-era trappings, but this release goes against GoG's missions statement completely - it doesn't even work. They really shouldn't be selling it, or at least sell it with the caveat that it only works on old systems so you'll need to run a VM or something to use it. Please patch this.

I'm so happy that finally someone "remastered" it. Love the game. It's a lot of fun playing it. Thanks for providing me with it.

I actually bought Shogo a looong time ago for $5. I had never heard of it before, but the graphics looked good (at the time) and it was only $5 so I gave it a shot. It didn't even come with a box, it was just the jewel case. Anyway, I wasn't expecting much but actually was a lot of fun! From what I remember the game was simple and all action. I liked the parts where you run around in a Mec and shoot at tanks and trucks in the city while you tower over them. I don't think I finished the game, but it's definitely worth the $6.

It's a shame this game was released around the same time as Half Life, because it was overlooked by a lot of people back then. It really is an amazing game, and one of the best first person shooters of the 3d era. Many of the character models are obviously dated, but otherwise the graphics still hold up even ten years later - and the gameplay is still top notch.

The first time I play Shogo, I was a bit decieved, because the mecha play like a classic fps, and not as a mechwarrior like. But Shogo is really a brilliant game. Why ? Even in 2008, I play again this game, and I enjoy it. The manga universe is ok, and the gunfight are actually very good and nervous! One of my favourite old style fps.
