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

Good stuff. I thought I was the only one at SRK left from this thread, besides Vic, of course.

I just got Ibara, and Mushihime-sama aswell (PS2). The games kick ASS (some of my fave Cave games, actually).

I’m tryin to hunt down DoDonPachi Dai Ou Jou, too. The vids I saw on Youtube look sexy (great music, aswell).

Oh, and Death Smiles;


SOOOO beautiful.

Someone linked me a better Death Smiles vid!

Man, that boss theme is hot.

I’m so sorry. I’ve downloaded some kick ass free shooters the other day and didn’t even bother to tell yall. Links will be forth coming.

I just played through Museshimesama (or however you spell it) on PS2.

Beat the game on normal, default settings - 7 continues used. I only used bombs on the final stage though, because that is one tough final stage.

Links, PMs, would be greatly appreciated.

I’ll get shot soon if Omega Five doesn’t suck. I have a bad feeling it’s gonna play like r-type. Fuck r-type.

I second this sentiment. And to contribute, I shall give you a unique game too.

Think of it as a SHMUP meets Okami. It’s free too, and pretty damned hard, I’d say.

Ok, I’ve heard the music for the Touhou Project shooters now I must play the games. Where can I find them because I don’t think I’ve ever seen them in stores.

Also, can someone help a brother improve his Axelay game?

So far I’ve played Minishooter RSD which is cute but full o stuff.
Echoes, which is a GeoWars meets Asteroids clone but good.

I also recommend non-shmups Mr. Blocko and Knytt Stories.

Don’t be coming in this thread dissin’ R-Type. Just because you can’t handle the slow pace and all the memorization required doesn’t mean the series sucks. Best go blow yourself. tips hat And you can tell from the screenshots that O5 isn’t going to play like R-Type. Have you not ever heard of Forgotten Worlds or are you about to show your age and lack of shooter experience by replying with “no”?

Missiles rape. That’s all I remember, sorry.

Bout damn time you guys started posting again.

I got ahold of Espgaluda, Mushihime-sama, and Ibara on PS2 (as in burned, because I AM a borke Pirate right now).

The games kick all kinds of fucking ass. Maybe I’ll actually buy them when I come across some money?

Where do you find these games to burn? PMs plz

Sldner-X

It’s available for the PC right now, but I think only Play Asia sells it. It will be available on the PlayStation Network for download, though that may not happen until Q2 2008 at the earliest.

Anyway, there’s screenshots and videos in the Media section of the website. I haven’t played it (and likely won’t until the PSN version is released), but it seems like it’s a slower, Gradius-type side-scroller. It also has two-player co-op and an online ranking system.

Touhou games arent really hard to get. Just Google their name, plus like “Megaupload” or some shit, and usually several links come up. For instance, Imperishable Night has MegaUpload link on page 1.

Wish I could help with Axelay too, but I suck at that shit, too.

Very awesome. Thank you. I hope it gets a PS2 port, soon. Sldner-X looks really cool. I’ma have to snag that aswell, for my PC.

playing wii version of Shikigami no Shiro 3 ! :tup:

How do you guys play those maniac shooters. I can only hang with DoDonPachi and that’s because I’m not a fucking human character. Those doujin shooters are distracting. Give me a space fighter!

I haven’t played too much Touhou games, and even the ones I do I’m not that good at. The Touhou style games are a bit extreme, when it comes to manic shooters. The Cave manic shooters is where I’m at, honestly. I can play those all day.

R-Type is one of the slowest and easiest shooter franchises ever made, you’re right I can’t handle it it’s much too boring.

Forgotten Worlds was lame too.

Yo Shikigami No Shiro 3. Looks awesome. I can’t wait for it to release.
