StingingVelvet: The original is amazing. I remember 2 and 3 being much worse, but I'm halfway through 2 now and it's not bad. Nowhere near as good as 1, and the Xboxyness of it is annoying, but it's fun.
I dislike some things about it, but I also liked other things(the one fat tech guy character and that merc commander, the music in some spots, some locations, the mech suits, etc). Basically I give the minuses more of a free pass due to the world building and such being so good and being a fan of the series.
On the opposite side of the player base, however, you have the ones who dislike ANY change to the original games in thir favorite series, and they will pick apart the newer installments and blow any problems out of proportion(or even cast aside new entries) due to nostalgia/etc. Those sorts I pity, as they cast aside games that might be good for various often senseless reasons.
