Metal Warriors

The Good
Developed by LucasArts and published by Konami, Metal Warriors is - no doubt about- a game that can be considered a masterpiece for Super Nintendo! With stunning and very detailed graphics, it contain animated scenes that are shown during the game, something uncommon in a 16-bit era cartridge. In the game you are a pilot of Mechas (the giant robots) and must go through nine missions, set in the outer space and on planets.

One of the coolest things about the game is the freedom to leave your Mecha any time you want, and enter into another one that is unoccupied. The missions are typical of the strategies of war, such as protection or rescue pilots his ship prisoners.

In total there are six types of Mechas that the player can pilot, each one with its own characteristics. Since, at a time until the player can fly several models to complete it.

Even the Multiplayer Mode is extremely fun, allowing you to wage a battle against a friend (or enemy), split screen, through huge phases and using a variety of "power-ups" and the robots unemployed to take advantage of him.

The Bad
There is no life bar or energy bar in this game... the appearance of your Mecha indicates the life you have left. When you are on the verge of destruction, it gets darker, with damaged parts and spins sparks. So when he loses his gun (with arm and all) turns out to be easy prey and can easily be destroyed.

The soundtrack is very annoying. The game's difficulty is quite hard and finish it will not be easy. The stages are very long and the biggest problem is getting out of a mission ready and safe. The controls of the characters are almost perfect, and should become a faster response just in time to pilot.

The Bottom Line
Just go play this game ... you will not regret!
