The first game I ever bought myself, using my allowance (age 9) was MechCommander. Absolutely love that game. It's also the game that drew me into my all time favorite fictional Universe of BATTLETECH.<br><br>Luckily there are enough people still keeping the game alive. I've had MechCommander and MechCommander 2 installed on every PC I've owned in some way, shape or form, and I still love it just as much as I did back then.<br><br>Luckily, both games are Freeware.
