Six mech suits are available here, the Nitro, Havoc, Prometheus, Spider, Ballistic and Drache, and you can climb out of one at almost any time. LucasArts developed this 1995 side-scroller and Konami published it in North America. It is often called a sequel to Cybernator because of its look, feel and publisher, but it is a separate game. Each suit has its own melee weapon and quirk, the Spider can crawl along ceilings, for example, while the Prometheus is slow and heavily armed, and backpack slots hold extras such as rocket or grenade launchers and a gravity inverter.
On foot, the pilot Stone is fragile and armed with a pistol that does nothing to machines, but he can hop into an abandoned enemy mech, and enemy soldiers can steal yours. There is no interface: damage shows on the suits themselves. The split-screen two-player deathmatch is the main reason it is remembered, and many players consider it one of the console's best versus modes.
Tips for Metal Warriors
When a suit is badly damaged, eject and look for an empty mech nearby rather than fighting on.
Protect your empty suit; enemy pilots will climb into it if you leave it unattended.
In versus mode, learn each suit's melee attack, since close-range hits often decide a duel.
