I think people's favorite is whatever they grew up with.
I played a lot of MechWarrior 2 as a kid. Give me the stompybois.
Unless you count Power Rangers, Gundam Wing was my primary mecha media as a kid. Loved that shit!
I grew up with Robotech, which was just a 4chan Memelord's reinterpretation of various low budget animes.
Why yes, I am a Horus fan, why do you ask?
We 80s kids called Robotech "japanimation", which I suppose sounds racist today. But we were enchanted! A science fiction cartoon soap opera? And it wasn't for little kids?!
Battle Engine Aquila for me, and my favourite Lancer mech is the SSC Death's Head... That actually checks out pretty well
MechAssault and especially MechAssault 2 hold a special place in my heart and I’m sad there hasn’t been a remake of either. Nothing like fighting giant mechs in power armor while Getting Away With Murder by Papa Roach or Right Now by Korn play. So much hype.
My first introduction was the so fucking amazing load video for mechwarrior 4. God, they put so much cool shit in a three minute blast.
Mine was...
"There's still room in hell for your sorry carcass"
"Look on the bright side kid... You get to keep all the money."
