Mechwarrior 3 & 4 had some pretty sweet 3d cockpits
Mech 3's were spartan and a bit too similar mech to mech but I liked 'em alot. 4's were terrible though! Absolutely awful, clumsy barely there butchered textures...oh man.

Mech4 (progress?)
I always found the wc3 cockpits a little overdone... wc1/2/armada had just the right amount of detail and features to match the info being displayed, it just appeared the wc3 cockpits were more art than interface,
Agreed, though I'd never consider turning WC3's cockpits off, I hated how the ITTS would disappear if your targeted ship was off-screen, including when it was obscured by your instrument panel! Considering how erratically ships can change direction in WC3 this was a major major oversight. Just makes things more challenging though so I guess it's not all bad...
