"The oft-overused phrase "It's not for everyone" can be applied to Assault Suit Leynos. While this game has been made more accessible, it hasn't been given a massive re-envisioning. Aside from some relatively minor tweaks and additions, this is still the same game as it was back in 1990. Some people might be put off by its "bland" mission structure, the lack of a complex scoring system, and controls that simply aren't designed for "Kickin' Rad!" combos. It's an ugly game in more ways than one, but its unique and well-constructed qualities have helped it endure all these years."

Pilot a mecha in a gritty future war where fuel and mineral shortages spark clashes between Earth's colonies. You control a third-person view of your armored suit while shooting from the cockpit or switching to a broader battlefield perspective. Team-based missions let you choose from various suits each with distinct weapons and armor. Gunfire and explosions fill the screen as you tackle objectives in a mix of open terrain and industrial zones. The Sega Saturn's hardware shines here with detailed environments and a consistent frame rate for a 1997 title. A 1999 sequel expanded the formula but this original remains a cult hit with retro gaming sites citing its replay value. Multiple mission paths and secondary objectives keep each run feeling fresh. Competitive players appreciate the tight controls and team-based strategy that anticipate modern multiplayer shooters.
