[friboy2791]

Mine is probably ... (dramatic pause)
METAL GEAR!!!!

P.S. in my mind this is read in David Hayter's awesomely over the top voice.

NINJA

 

[Last Breath Bullet]

Wing Zero from Gundam Wing. It has the power to destroy a whole space colony.

 

[blaberer6]

The Cybran ACU from SupCom. It's not only cool and have lasers and stuff, it can build a giant army out of nothing.

Spoiler

But but, what about the UEF ACU?

This is trolling? [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/18.249248-Your-favorite-Giant-Mech-EVER?page=5#9208423]

Looks like an opinion to me. An opinion you may not like, yes.

Have the mods let the power go to their head of late, or is it just me?

.

Pretty ridiculous probation, I have to say.

OT:

The Leviathon in Enslaved

Western mechs are ugly tin cans that are more like walking coffins. These are elegant things of beauty.

i LOVE western mechs! they're Freakin' bipedal tanks!

the anime mechas look too much like the people who drive them in my opinion. it also looks like every weapon they have starts with either the word hyper, mega, super, or ultra.

Spoiler: Baron Heinrich von helsing

it IS technically a cyborg though

Spoiler: Laufpanzer

those are made by the same artist^

i like his style.

i like the grey titanic mechs that look bulky and have a good amount of guns; not to many, or it would look silly. i like the ones that look like vehicles, not costumes. not much of a laser person either, but blue or green lasers give off a nice techno look when the armor is black.

Spoiler: i love mismashy stuff too, the stuff that looks hand done

Dog from halflife is pretty sweet in this regard.

steampunks cool too. i like it when the gears are visible.

Spoiler: giant transformers are cool too

OT: The one those Japanese people got married under. Forget where it was. Somewhere in Japan.

I see you your fake, animated mecha, and raise you a giant, life-sized killer robot.

Coming into a thread for people to discuss their favourite mecha, saying that mecha are stupid and linking to a long opinion piece about why they're stupid? Yes, I'd say that qualified as trolling.

 

[Zannkimaru]

Has to be mentioned, i mean come on the thing can fire a damn nuke at point blank range take out half a fleet and survive. Not to mention the pilot makes the thing even all the more better.

Spoiler

Or the Tallgeese III thing is just awesome.

[Au Naturel.]

I love mechs, I really do. I don't necessarily know many, but I love them. But what I do know is, since I started watching Evangelion...

I think I don't need to say more

Yes.

And also, the Triseed from Lost Planet 2. It has three forms, can fly, has spinning blades hidden in it's arms, and is alot of fun to pilot!

Spoiler: First place.

NZ-666 Kshatriya

Spoiler: Second place.

MSN-06S Sinanju

Spoiler: Third place.

MSA-0011[Ext] Ex-S Gundam

Katoki designs are made of win.

To paraphrase Yahtzee
"Those look like somebody sat down to draw and never freaking stopped,"

I can see your point with the Ex-S but for the Sinanju and Khisatria? Yeah no.

None can beat the might of... The MS-07B-3 Gouf Custom!

Spoiler: Gouf Custom

Who says they were looking for a reaction?

Trolling is saying something to intentionally bait people into getting angry.

They were just voicing an opinion.

This is a thread about FAVORITE Giant Mechs, not about why that person believes mechs are stupid. He's going into an area where people will obviously be going to talk and show off their favorite mech models, posting that is like going to Comic-Con with a sign that reads "Comics are stupid."

So yes, it is trolling. It may be his honest opinion, but its still trolling.

Gentlemen,the Uziel.

More specificaly,the UZL-2S. It carries around a pair of Charged Particle Projection Cannons for long range conflict,a Crossbow SRM-6 rack for close quarters confrontations,a machinegun for reducing infantry to fertilizer,and jump jets that allow 180 meters of upward lift. And it has impressive waste-heat management systems!
To top it all off,it's fast at 97 kph,and well protected with eight tonnes of solid armour.
Fear it. Just try not to soil yourselves when two orbs of charged particulated death come screaming your way.

EDIT: Also,for when I feel like looking at a cute mech (why yes,they DO exist!),I look at the KiwiBot.

The one that looks like a bird. I so enjoy that mech,and its pilot isn't uninteresting,either.

How do you know he wanted a reaction? Perhaps he just wanted to say his opinion.

Then he could of done it in his own words instead of linking other person's words. The link alone is reason enough to believe he was trolling.

Fair enough.

I'm no mod, so I can't judge. I'm just not sure he was.

I'm no mod either and even I can see the reasoning on both sides. Its really easy to avoid this kinda stuff. He could have easily just ignored it and moved along, but instead, he posts that. This leads to Logan's opinion that he is trolling.

You don't just decide to walk into a thread about a subject you don't like and simply say "Hey everyone, I don't like what you all like and here is a link as to why!"

I'm sure he would be perfectly capable of writing his own thoughts down, if he wasn't willing to actually write his opinion on it then it probably wasn't worth listening to in the first place.
