Chromehounds is the style i prefer to play i think. I still like big robots with laser swords like GUNDAM but that makes for better viewing rather than playing. Chromehounds was awesome but there isn't enough people playing it anymore, once a certain configuration and set of guns were widely known, that was all people used and it got boring.

Chromehounds and Mechwarrior are towards the "slow, ponderous, really feels like you're piloting 100 tons of machinery" end, while the more anime-styled games tend to be at the "moves unrealistically fast and has laser swords" end. Both can be good. Armored Core games seem to be somewhere in the middle. I liked AC3, but I've hardly played AC4 at all, even though I've owned it for ages.
