Hany on the Road for me.
Cyber Cross is second. Shame Wiber plays like butt juice.

Face is a weird company, but I think Time Cruise II is the most interesting title. Yeah, where IS Faceball?

There is no contest. No need to think. Metal Stoker is the best console game Face has ever made. I would say "best game Face ever made", but Zupapa!, Money Idol Exchanger, and Nostradomus offer some strong competition. But Metal Stoker is good. One of the best on HuCard. It's not as versatile and snazzy as Granada, the tank game on the Genesis, but it makes up for it with a great selection of weapons, killer soundtrack, and awesome Engrish ending. If the game's controls were as customizable and as good as Granada (like being able to hold fire and strafe... give us some options!), then it would be perfect. But it doesn't, alas. Alice in Wonderdream is a miserable, lousy, awful game. It may start innocently enough, but once the game starts practically -requiring- you to pull off pin-prick precise inputs to "superjump" across obstacles, then you realize you are playing a piece of crap. Not to mention that dumb little jingle that you have to listen to all the time just to find hidden health and magic. So annoying! I really wanted to like it, but now. The music is great (like the boss theme). That's the best I can say about it. Hany in the Road (aka Honey on the Lord lol) is... uh, kind of a weird one. It's... neat? The range for hitting enemeies is pitiful and getting sent to that Hell level can be overly frustrating the 6th time it happens at the same spot you are trying to figure out on a playthrough. It's a good-looking game and interesting. Not sure if I'd call it "good" but I kinda like it. Hany in the Sky is bad. They should have really thought a bit harder about handling that rotation. Mashing the button to get your pea-shooter to aim behind you, only to fail because it moves so slowly... that's the normal Hany in the Sky experience.

I'm not in a position to judge as I haven't given a few of the games a serious playthrough, but I voted Metal Stoker.

Always thought Hany on the Road was pretty cool, albeit a bit frustrating. I've played that one a lot more than the others on the list though.

I saw a pic on a Japanese blog long ago of the front of either the studio for or the arcade from FACE. The made a couple shoot em ups for arcade. Too bad they didn't port over some of them. Nostradamus would have been awesome on PCE as a Super System game

I'm giving my vote to Time Cruise II. It's not an amazing pinball game but I appreciate the originality of the design and the idea behind the mini games.
Cross Wiber has great music and visuals, just a shame the gameplay is so bland.

I haven't played all of the Face games but I really like Metal Stoker.
I thought Hany In The Sky is fun once you get used to the controls and power up some.

I haven't played Alice and have always wanted to based on screen shots, but maybe I'm not missing anything.
I voted Stoker (by a lot) as it's fun and kind of unique amongst shooters. but I enjoy Ryukyu too, until several puzzles in, where even though you get the same sequences of cards every restart, I can't pass it. Even so, I still fire it up when I want more chilled out a puzzle-game fix.
