I don't know why I don't own a copy of this game yet. I didn't know about it besides it was a mech shooter, and I thought that the box art was cool, but hearing about the whole light charging thing has me more interested and any similarities to the Assault Suits series is even more of a selling point for me. Target Earth was a pretty special Genesis entry for me when I was a kid because it reminded be so much of Robotech/Macross. Almost anything in a similar vein appeals to me.
