Overview: X-Ranger is a first person arena shoot fest. It is all about surviving wave after wave of attacking creatures approaching from all sides while you stay in the center. X-Ranger is cold and dark, with lots of colossal sized metal all wrapped up in an area where the only ones sleeping are blasted to pieces in a fiery explosion. If you survive long enough to blink, a weapons depot becomes available to replenish your arsenal with the few tokens granted by your spectators. Choose wisely, or better yet, save the game before making a purchase. Not all weapons are created equal. Nevertheless, their handlers do put regulators on the more powerful ones. Have the money for the rocket launcher with extra missiles? Too bad, you will only be allowed 200 units.

Kind of like making sure cruise control is not the quick and easy way to win this game. If you have a nimble hand and have watched the predators movements, using the other one to one manual shot weapons will not be a problem. Good thing larger quantities of ammunition are allowed for all those missed targets. But before heading back to the arena field for the next fresh wave of meat, keep a full supply of health rejuvenators and nuclear detonators. While each is expensive, they help keep you alive and clear the field of all baddies. After a few rounds of quick rips through the levels, things really start to get hair trigger at level five through eight, separating the gum-on-your-shoe slow movers from the twirling skater. Just do not sweat it about the money. At the higher levels, it starts to pour in like tomorrow's hailstorm with the true challenge being the limitations in how it is spent. Whatever path you choose, easy, medium, hard- just remember to not let anyone distract you, for such a personal interruption could mean lights out for your hero.
