Both games are great, but I prefer Cybernator (AKA Assult Suit Valken) more. As for Cybernator's story, I have a feeling that it was stripped down for the US release- I have one of Satoshi Urushihara's art books, who did the character designs for Cybernator, and there's two whole pages of character designs that you never see anywhere in the game (except for the options screen). There's the Cybernator pilot, his girlfriend, some other guys, a General, etc. I can't imangine that they'd hire an artist like him to do all that for no reason. Plus, there's some other great promotional art that Konami USA of course didn't bother using, most of it gushy romantic stuff (the pilot and his girl embracing, etc.). However, given the content of the rest of Satoshi Urushihara's art book, I'm suprised that the girl wasn't topless...
Oh, and Metal Warriors kicks ass. Hard game, though. That game needs a thread of it's own...
