I"m doomed.

There was this game I played some years ago (2000-2003). It was Mechwarrior kind of a game (you were pilot of those huge bi-pedal machines), but instead of story-driven campaign you were thrown into some kind of arena and you were fighting for money. After fight you were allowed to do repairs, upgrade your weapons or even buy new mech etc.
I enjoyed it quite a lot back then, but now I can't remember that game's name. I'd swear it was some part of Mechwarrior series but I browsed through those (and their expansions) on mobygames.com and didn't find it there.

Does it ring any bells? Anyone?

Do you mean Metaltech Battledrome?

Thanks for the suggestion but I'm quite sure it wasn't Battledrome. I think it was quite new game at that time... I also checked the screenshots and it was indeed something else...

Mercenaries has a few arena missions...

It does sound kind of familiar though so I'll think about it.

Steel Battalion? Do you remember paying for a freakin massive controller that had almost no use other than that one game?

Steel Empire ;)

Now this is the game I plyed A LOT.

Wow. It really seems that Mechwarrior 4 - Mercenaries is what I was looking for...
I had to skip this out somehow...
Thanks for hints :)

Check this out.

Weee.... I got something right!
