The 2002 launch title MechAssault is being praised for the way it pushed the original Xbox hardware, running on the console's 733MHz Intel custom CPU and NV20-based GPU to deliver dynamic destruction, physics particles and real-time lighting. Fans highlight its role as an early showcase for Xbox Live, System Link and 5.1 Dolby Digital sound in the BattleTech universe.
