Yes, I was shocked about the controller at first too, but it's just a gimmick, and all mech games are the same. And they all suck. But if you're someone who is into mech games, then have fun.

yea i was pretty suprised by it when i came across the article in EGM, its a ripoff, surely its worth more then the standard 50bucks but cmon 200? just for a cheap plastic controller? im sure it'll be an awesome game but thats a little too much for me, i'll just go to the arcade or something to get the "full experience"

I saw the article in EGM also and have to say that's crazy. Sure some people might buy that but I doubt many. $200 is the price for a new system. I don't care how much fun a game is, I don't think I have ever played a game that I would pay $200 for. The controller is a cool idea but not for that price. What else can you do with the controller? If it had other purposes for other games maybe. But I doubt that other games will utilaize the controller since not many people will have it. Since not many people will have the controller, not many if any games will use it. Overall, a bad idea.
