I thought Wolf Fang was a mediocre shooter where you could aim your ship in a f*cked up way.

Wolf Fang is Vapor Trail, isn't it?

No, Vapor Trail is "Vapor Trail" aka "Kuuga - Operation Code Vapor Trail" whereas Wolf Fang aka "Rohga: Armor Force" aka "Wolf Fang: Kuuga 2001" seems to be its sequel, though they are, look and play completely different aka they are completely different games.

Cybernator is fricken awesome, and definitely the best game of its kind.

Target Earth is okay too - I recall people complaining straight away how difficult it was, but I did beat the thing, so I must've been one bad mofo back in the dayz (never played it again).

AS Valken 2 is good stuff too, but yeah, it just isn't as slick as Cybernator/Leynos, and I agree that it hasn't aged as well.

Blood Gear is also awesome, definitely one the gems of PCE, but not quite Cybernator good.

Ranger X... I never understood.  I really did try liking this game (considering I I liked ALL the games mentioned above) but I just never saw the appeal.  After about 2 levels, I just get bored & turn it off.

   Or you just hit start on the player 2 controller.

Say all you will against Wolf Fang, but for me, it's the pinnacle of mech games next to Cybernator & one of my favorite games of all time.  So, I'm a bit biased. :D
Play Turbografx.
Play the Turbografx. PLAY

Don't you fly a jet in Wolf Fang?

EDIT: Nevermind. I've been thinking of Skull Fang, aparently.

Yeah Skull Fang. That's what I was thinking as well.
