Metal Head is a 1995 First-Person Shooter / Mecha Game developed and published by Sega for the Sega 32X.Set in a highly-advanced future filled with giant robots, mecha of all sizes forms the backbone of the police and military. You're an ace pilot operating a METAL HEAD - a standard robotic unit used by the police, when a high-tech terrorist syndicate filled with state-of-the-art equipment and machines launches an attack. After a successful ambush which sees the terrorists taking over the city, you arrive as part of the backup, where it's your Metal Head against legions of enemy mecha of assorted sizes.

Heroic Mime: Your lieutenant, mechanic, and support team will converse with you either to provide intel, deliver new objectives, or information on upgrades you can apply on your robot. Unfortunately, you don't have any lines for answering.

Grenade Launcher: One that the game calls "Grenade Cannon", but it otherwise functions as one. It fires an exploding projectile that blows apart most enemies with one hit.

Cut and Paste Environments: Every single stage uses the same streets, buildings, fences, skies, literally everything, with some alterations to disguise the recycled assets. The game did try to make some changes in the third mission, reusing the assets while setting the stage at night.

Fragile Speedster: Terrorist trucks are the fastest enemies around, and tends to drive circles around you while a mook on it's back opens fire. However they blow up in just one hit.

comment
Covers Always Lie: An unintentional example, but some covers and promotional flyers boasts that the game is made for 1 or 2 players, when in actuality it's a single-player game. Sega themselves later confirms that was a typographical error on their part.

Enemy-Detecting Radar: You have one on the upper-right corner that displays an aerial map of the city as well - justified since you're piloting a robot with radar equipped.

A Mech by Any Other Name: The titular "METAL HEAD" refers to the giant robot you're piloting. Note that words like "robots" or "mecha" isn't uttered at any point of the game.

Critical Annoyance: If your mecha is down to it's last to health bars, a siren will go off in the background and remain so until you picked up a repair kit or complete the level (of course, finishing a stage with a badly-damaged mecha will grant you a new one in pristine condition by the next level).

Elaborate Underground Base: The terrorists have one which is where they construct and launch their robots from; in the second-to-last stage you infiltrate the underground area to take them down for good.

Weak Turret Gun: Some stages have dinky, stationary turrets painted blue, which could be threatening to human targets. However you're piloting a mecha, and your cannons quickly make quick work of them.
