Looking for Colossal Mecha Games

So in between the latest Legend of Korra episode, a Warhammer 40k book about Imperial Titans and another viewing of Pacific Rim; I'm in the mood for a colossal mecha game.

Then I realized that all the mecha games are merely giant.
Mechwarrior, Hawken, Titanfall... all top off at around 20m tall robots.
I'm looking for a game that involves piloting something at least 40m tall.
Something that could punt an Atlas Assault Mech, something that should not be able to physically exist in a world with normal gravity.

Does anyone know of any such game?
The closest I can think of is Supreme Commander, and that's more commanding a Galactic Colossus, not piloting it.

40 meters is pretty tall, the only robot I can think of that fits that scale and has appeared in a game is Mechagodzilla.


OH I just remembered! Dyansty Warriors Gundam Reborn lets you play as Mobile armors those are at least 40 meters tall.

There is a Warhammer Epic mod for Dawn of War that add's mechs. Well, resizes a lot of the units. Really can't think of one about commanding. I suppose just google Mech PC game and see if anything comes up.

If you don't mind playing really old games, then there's this game called Shogo: Mobile Armor Division. It's stylized off Gundam Wing and other Mecha animes. You can really feel the size of the mechs there because you are often pitted against normal-sized tanks and human soldiers. A very fun title, if you ask me.

EDIT: Here [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vTSNJA2OfTY]'s a short gameplay, so you can check it out.

IF you can hunt it down I suggest Robot Alchemic Drive for PS2. The Mechs is that one are more on the huge side where your player character is about half the size of its head rather than about the size of its torso where cockpit usually is in these mech games. You will need to be prepared for a weird control scheme as the games story required the mechs to be piloted remotely and this is accomplished by giving a limb control system that your player character must use while observing it from the outside. Id suggest looking up some gameplay videos as it is hard to explain but I have found it a lot of fun and It is not only a Colossal mech game but one that experimented with something interesting

The Another Century's Episode (ACE) series has occasionally included mechs in excess of 40 meters (notably Shin Getter Robo in 3 and Aquarion in R), but they usually don't handle as well as the mobile suits, valkyries, overmen, and other smaller units.

Other than that, you can always look to Super Robot Wars if you don't mind turn-based strategy. Some of the playable units there have been positively gigantic, although their size doesn't often have a super big effect on gameplay. Actually, Super Robot Wars OG: Infinite Battle is an arena combat game that includes several mechs canonically over 60m tall. There's also the Gundam G Generation series of strategy games, which allow you to eventually develop and use some truly massive mobile armors.

I think the mecha in Armored Core are suppose to be skyscraper height, but the games also never set any sort of scale for that so it doesn't matter at all when playing, could just as well be wasp sized and it would all go down the same.
