its extremely fun, but can be difficult at first. you gotta get fluent with the slide and be able to switch between your gun and fist smoothly. its a nice mix up awesome fast paced platforming and a freeform shmup. definitely a good fucking game and the soundtrack is fucking tits too

The japanese box art was so much better.

>kino
what

>>5222302
Sadly no. Despite an impressive surface it's a game devoid of any finesse.

>>5222302
No, it's a fucking game, idiot. "kino" means movie theater. What the fuck went wrong with your upbringing? Were you dropped on your head as a teenager?
Also: Metal Warriors is better.

Lololololol, it's trash and never recieved a sequel. Stay mad

>>5222823
Agreed. The NA box looks like a robo-Ninja turtle doing his best Kool Aid man impression.

I like both. The japanese also looks like a generic Tamiya kit

The question is, which game is the best out of Cybernator, Metal Warriors or Front Mission Gun Hazard? The side-scroller mech shooter trilogy.

>>5222302
Absolutely.
There isn't even that many games in this style, and this happens to be one of the best.

I love the hopping into other mechs in MW and the upgrading/variety in FM:GH, Cybernator/Valken's strength is it's just a strong arcadey blastfest with some fun as fuck level gimmicks. The asteroid field and rollerdash battle are memorable stages, as are the antigravity areas and fucking boss battles while reentering Earth's atmosphere. Dat soundtrack helps too, always pumped as heck and that final stage's epic build up as you storm the enemy capital is great stuff.

Hard to rank but Metal Warriors has a bit of jank to it and lacks a bit of the weight these mechs should have. GH is fine if you want Valken the RPG but you might just want a fun, well put together hour's blowing shit up instead of Square's 'blockbuster' presentation and story.

Still so weird Cybernator has that one complete beta with dialog portraits and a sound test. Must've thought we couldn't handle seeing the chars that were talking or knowing that 'Crea' (love that bad translation) was a cute anime chick.

>and lacks a bit of the weight these mechs should have.

I did notice the realism is lower in MW, and it's a bit flashier. Laser swords, Nitro can just straight up fly, plastic shields, etc. Plus, mech designs that are more fantastical and less grounded.

>and the upgrading/variety in FM:GH,

typically poorly balanced, and is a bit of a mess. The shotgun just straight up seems to be a better weapon than the others. And the game focuses a lot on stats and experience, and less on finese level design and skill.

For instance, I just blasted through a bunch of levels quickly in the game but suddenly was confronted by enemies hitting way too hard. So, typical to my thought process, I tried playing better. No deal. So what I did is upgraded by chasis on my mech, bought an HP plus upgrade, and then did some grinding to upgrade the level on my mech's HP. I redid the level and I was totally untouchable. Upgrades, stats, levels, have more of an impact than your skill level in the game.

That being said, the customizability is really great. I really wish that the mechs weren't just better versions of each other, since i like some of the designs more than others. The original is a kind of cool simple design.
