The shooter games thread returns! The Empire Of Ammo says, EVERYBODY GETS SHOT!

Capcom and Nyu Media woke up and have partnered to bring indie Japanese games over to Steam. Some of the first games and details right here, good sir:

Other games, like Crimson Clover, have at least been mentioned by the Nyu Media rep over on the Steam Satazius board:

oh nice, I’ll keep my eyes out for those releases.

I imported eXceed 3rd. Pretty good game for what it is.

After hearing about Nyu Media I think I’ll be making a purchase of Satazius just to give them some more funds to bring other games over.

Looks like Turrican. Cool cool!

Call off the air strike. I escaped. :lol:

I am now looking at the screen for the PSN Raiden III. I’m about to post and jump into the cockpit again for the first time in a long time. Wish me luck.

Oh shiet. :lovin: I have a feeling my wallet is about to suffer the kind of weight loss that is more commonly seen in slasher films and wild animal attack shows. I thank you on behalf of my thumbs and toes that may not function as well by the end of this year. :tup:

Haha, glad I kept my copy. As for DoDonPachi, I say go with the 360 version. Saturn version has long load times, IIRC.

Rising Star Games Opens U.S. Office, Akai Katana Headed To North America

I imagine we’ll end up getting DoDonPachi Resurrection as well, even though the European release is region-free.

YES!!! Day 1 purchase.

This makes me happy in pants.

<= FurryCurry is moist.

yo! any new games for XBLA (arcade) or Xbox?

would you guys consider Hard corp a shooter?

wait, is the shum-up or just a shooter thread?

well if its things with guns, I tried Quake area, didn’t like it on xbox… I do miss Unreal tournament and wish they would port that

What games count in this thread:

2D or 2.5D or 3D on-rails action titles where the main focus is shooting shit. So anything from R-Type to Panzer Dragoon to Einhander to Metal Slug to DoDonPachi to Space Harrier (but fuck that game sorry) to Geometry Wars to Hard Corps Uprising. So even though in Hard Corps you do your fair share of platforming it’s platforming within the confines of shooting shit.

I Iike 3D shooters a lot myself,** but only in the world of a Shmup do I feel like a man.**

cool, would you say hardcorps is worth it?

Cool! I rarely buy games new nowadays, but I won’t hesitate to pick these up once they’re available.

Yeah I loved Hard Corps Uprising. I sunk a lot of time in the Rising mode.

News from shmups forum:

DDP Saidaioujou is a new arcade release.

Mushihimesama coming to 360. No details on whether it will include newer Matsturi 1.5 version with it. Apparently Cave’s last release for this console cycle.

http://www.siliconera.com/2012/01/30/cave-still-hope-to-release-their-shooters-on-pc-in-the-future/ How many tweets do these fools need before they release some games on PC? Do they not understand that Steam has a wide ass audience and that their games will sell there?!

So I’m thinking of getting into shooters, mainly FPS or 3rd person if possible. What is the most"skilled"based FPS at the competitive level that is more centered around your a ability as a player as opposed to gimmicks in the game. I’d like to start playing competitive so I wanna know which shooter would work best as a legitimate competitive title?

Don’t troll here Evo.
