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

Shit. How does one even play PC Engine games on the PC?

MagicEngine.

1942: Joint Strike - old news, but stillā€¦

Does anyone have Taito Legends 2? If so, then tell me, how are the Darius Gaiden and G-Darius ports on it?

Oh, btw. If you like Solider Blade, I recommend the whole series, to you. Itā€™s an awesome series that.

I used to be way into shmups a few years ago for a short while. Itā€™s great to see a thread like this one. Thing what got me slowly away from these games was the lack of skill and especially for this type of genre, I am a very slow learner. That and being impatient doesnā€™t help the enjoyment of these games. I might dive back into playing them again after seeing this thread.

everybody gets shot!!

ddp dfk loc test footage here!

Whatā€™s going on in that video? Iā€™ve only played DoDonPachi and your hit counter goes away if you canā€™t keep it up (heh). But in this video it stays on there. Do they have some new gameplay systems in place?

Sup. Iā€™m giving away two Yujin Model Kits. One Red Silver Hawk and Vic Viper Meterion (sp?). I have extras and want to give them to some fans of getting blown the fuck up.

One thing you can notice about that video is that the screen now scrolls horizontally and vertically in reverse as well. Hit counter seems the same to me as first Dodo but maybe Iā€™m wrong. Is anybody good at Daioujou here? Fucking fourth and fifth screens murder me.

DIBS!

send that vic viper my way, Im a bigger fan of that ship than the Darius ones.

Woah woah! I want them, Curry. SUP

microsoft denied 5PB the permission to port them to XBLA so they decided to do actual disc releases instead

i really really really hope they end up region free

Downloaded Ikaruga on my friends xbox cause it was the only way of me to actually play it. Watching the videos I thought I could probably handle playing it but I cant beat the mid boss of level 3 with 3 lives and no continues.

I need to figure out when I play do I play for points or just to survive cause switching back and forth gets me killed. I can get an A on level 1 but the rest are difficult. I donā€™t know how to really chain the start of level 2 when the planes circle around your ship while firing.

Well I havenā€™t decided yet. So interested parties please post in this thread. My PM box is almost full and Iā€™m lazy soā€¦ just donā€™t pm.

Iā€™m not sure how Iā€™m going to decide who gets to get them. The chosen will have to pay shipping but it wonā€™t be much. These things come in oversized capsule cases (I mean OVERSIZED. Japanese and their damn capsules. They need to make a shooter about that shit) so the box wonā€™t be too much bigger and I guess it would fit in a mail box.

So yeah, post here and let me know if you are interested. Weā€™ll see where this goes.

By sniping with single shots VERY fucking carefully. Thereā€™s a reason a single tap doesnā€™t fire a double shot.

Damn. Good news to hear, none the less.

Iā€™ll do a trade. I got some unopened Gundam Model Kits with your name on it. lol

Seriously.

I would like to get one so I am posting here as you requested :wgrin:

I dont know what I could trade for the vic viper. I suppose I could just send a check paying for whatever one costs individually.

edit
oh damn people are going to fight tooth and nail for these things
