I don't have any favorite Batmobiles, but I have a funny story to tell.  Last month when I was at Toys R Us, they had one of those little push cars for toddlers who are just learning to walk, and it was Batman themed.  But the stickers on the sides of the car had Batman and Robin looking like they were little chubby babies!  It was hilarious.  I should've taken pictures.  I could just imagine them saying,

"Come on, Wobin, we have to catch the Widdler!"

"Doo doo daa daa maa maa goo goo pee pee!"

I reviewed the very first Armored Core game back when I was at The Dallas Morning News.  Before then, the only other popular mech game at the time was MechWarrior, and that was just a glorified tank sim.  Armored Core is what a mech game should be, I think.

Oh cool, so it is coming out on systems I can play it on.  I have a good relatonship with Activision, so maybe I can review it.  Or get Jeff to review it. :)

I saw that game in arcades everywhere back in the day.

It looks so horrible now, but that game was huge back then.

Yeah and one of the tracks you could pick had a loop de loop!

I wonder if my brother Jeff will want that game.  And will it be on a system he can play it on?

I didn't know there was a PC version.  In the arcade there was Hard Drivin' followed by its sequel: Race Drivin'.  Or maybe it was the other way around, i don't remember.  Did yours do an instant replay whenever you'd crash?

Here's a review I wrote of the most recent one:

I remember them being huge games back then.  One year at E3 I think Activision even set up a half-pipe at their booth!
