Excerpt from Genesis Game Guide by The Scribe

NAME:             Ranger X
AUTHOR/VENDOR:    Gau Entertainment
RELEASED:         1993
TYPE:             Shooter
LANGUAGE:         English

PREMISE:          A fantastic Japanese mecha shooter in which you get to
                  pilot the Ranger X while singlehandedly fighting off a
                  massive assault on your home base.

IMPRESSIONS:      This beautiful-looking shooter reminds me an awful lot of
                  the arcade classic Sidearms.  It has the same incredible
                  graphics, the same ear-catching sound, and the same
                  awkward gameplay.  Manages to do some neat visual tricks
                  rarely seen before or afterwards in a G/MD game, though,
                  and that's probably worth the hassle for most folks.

VARIATIONS:       Ex-Ranza (original Japanese release)

A game that I don't think got wide distribution, its a quality shooter that has enough ideas to elevate it above the pack.
An interesting control system that takes a couple mins to get comfortable with, you use A and C to control the direction your shooting in.
You get a average selection of weapons to play with, featuring shooter staples like lasers, napalm and "the big frikken laser". On some levels, you also get a bike type thing (that you can combine with) and some sort of low-flying aircraft (that actually provides arial cover).
The graphics are great, the programmers managed to pull off some pretty impressive sprite rotation and 3D effects that are commonplace in SNES games. It also has some of the most spectacular explosions seen on the Genesis!
It'll keep you occupied for a while although it ain't very hard.

I bought this game after renting it several times. I have to say that in my own oppinion, that to this day it is the best game ever created. It features stuning gameplay, bad-*** visual efects and an even cooler musical score. I give this game a 10 out of 10 star rating and urge people to dowload the rom. You won't regret it.

I don't believe the comments so far are overestimating this game. This is by far one of the best shooters and games on the genesis, it's semi-rare but doesn't yeild too much of a price on e-bay, search for it, and buy it, nuff said!
