6: Strike Suit Zero
Another western game heavily influenced by Japanese aesthetics, the recently successfully crowdfunded Strike Suit Zero is an independent game which is an entry on this list that represents the oft forgotten space mecha. In Strike Suit Zero, the player takes to space, also in a transforming mech, that can either be a giant, death dealing robot, or a space fighter, equally capable of death dealing. While the game is a bit lighter on the simulation aspect, it does feature a lot of deep, hardcore space action against a plethora of enemies of all sizes on the screen.
