Description
The soldier stood amid rubble, fog of war clearing as the gunfire died down.He'd survived another engagement with weapon in hand, his comrades still standing.
A sick sense of achievement crossed his mind as he held his rifle in his arms.
Section 8 was one of those games that thrilled me the first time I saw it: everyone had bad-ass power armor, could jump down to the battlefield from orbit, doing a full burn-in on their own and landing like terminal velocity was of no consequence. When I came to play Section 8: Prejudice for the first time, I enjoyed it quite a bit. It was a little soft for how intense I thought it should have felt, but still enjoyable all the same.
Recently, I decided that we needed some really good ports of the USIF armor, so I went and did them, the guns, and made new skins for all the helmets to match up with the armor variations.

Nice to know there are still fans of Section 8. It's one of my little gems and the reason I still keep the 360 around.Β

It's a pretty well done game with some really nice assets and lore.

When power armors are compared people always come up with feats. The 40K Space marine, Halo-spartan mjolnir and the nanosuit from crysis being the most discussed ones.
But one thing people tend to forget about is availability. From those above one is more rare than the other in their own franchises and require the wearer to be special forces, undergo unique traning, etc. However in Section 8, Corde was already using this armor when he was a private.
So with feats which are only matched by 40K power armor and being largely mass-produced, Section 8's power armor holds the number one spot on my list.
Although there is no info on such, I like to think that the baseline soldier is already wearing this armor, where in other franchises, the standard soldier only has his decently armored uniform and a rifle. Making S8 armor not only high in quality but overwhelming in quantity compared to other franchises' power armors.

This is hands down one of the coolest power armors I have seen on here. Just awesome.

Hey, you may remember me in the GMod workshop asking about how the alternate skins work. I just want to say thank you very much for putting these onto GMod. Section 8 is a game that I really enjoy, it was one of my favorite multiplayer FPS games. The fact that I can customize the armor to have variants makes it all even better now!
I made a cool pic with it too if you want to take a look.

Or maybe it's for making orbital drops into any tactical position without having to worry about making expensive, disposable drop pods.
Which would be silly.
