Assault/ Assault Plus - Very underrated twin stick shooter for arcades. One of the most graphically impressive games of 1988, and contains a ton of replayability thanks to responsive controls, a large amount of stages, and experimenting with different paths. Plus version also adds a easy/super mode with altered level layouts. Sadly ahead of its time, and never got any sequels. Armored Warriors- Nice arcade beat-em-up with good graphics due to cps2 hardware, the ability to customize your weapon/arm/leg system from defeated enemies, and a high difficulty especially in the last few stages makes this a decent challenge for a 1cc (in my opinion). Kind of a crime that its sequel ended up being a 1v1 fighter that got mostly ignored in arcades. Front Mission 2- Second entry in the series, that contains a ton of upgrades compared to the first games with the Action Points system, along with a mature storyline and a high difficulty to boot ( got stuck near one of the super tank missions about 60% in). Unfortunately, due to the mature content, Square never released this in the US and the only way to play is to find the translation patch for the game ( which also requires a gamefaqs script for the last 30% of the game). Some other ones I can reccomend are Dogyuun, Bangai-O Spirits, Granada, Hyper Duel, Super Robot Wars F Final, along with Gundam Battle Assault 1 & 2. Would like to add Metal Wolf Chaos once I have access to it via softmod. |

Other than that I really enjoy the Armored Core series but haven't played any of them past PS2 games. Also MechWarrior is fun but I need to delve into that series more. --- End quote --- I just finished it. Which route did you take? --- End quote --- I currently going though Emma's storyline. --- End quote --- Same. I hear that Alisa's is very different, and absolutely worth playing through. |

I haven't played many games with mechs at all, dabbled briefly (and unsuccessfully) with Armored Core games, Krazy Ivan was my first PS1 game.. Front Mission 3, for sure, would be mine, one from Square's golden age. Didn't manage to finish it, but pecking away at enemy mechs to try and expel the pilot so you can nick his rig always kept me interested. |

When it activates, you'll eject the pilot from their Wanzer. It's satisfying, helpful, and quite rewarding since you can sell Wanzer's for big bucks. |
