Looking to pick up a copy of ranger x on the megadrive as it looks fantasic, but its so cheap, (for a pal copy,not that thats a complaint) just wondered if its any good? Also im going to need a 6 button pad to play it? No?

I don't think you need the six button pad but it was designed around it so it does help to have one. I controls are quite complex and I would imagine using the the standard three button setup would be a bit of a pain - but then again I never have - I've only used the 6B one so I can't comment for sure.
The game is excellent, BTW.

Whats so complex about the controls then? It was in the back of my mind that its dosent play like a regular hori shmup, could you explain please? Why if its so great does it go for peanuts in comparision to say thunderfore 4 which for a pal md game is 'expensive' neither are that rare are they?

EX-Ranza was the Japanese version. It's a really nice game and though it feels a little jerky at first (and the first level is a bit disappointing) it reveals itself to be one of the most intricate platform/shooter hybrids on the MD. There's some truly great graphics and effects in this one, too. One of the unsung heroes of the Megadrive and well worth checking out.
