anyone else looking forward to Tactical-Intervention?
If only more people realized this. I guess they think cause itās Space Invaders itās like the originals or Extreme when itās really just a SOLID hori shmup. Gravity is my shit but itās not perfect, none of the weapons are. At least none of the ones in this version of Infinity Gene.
Zwhat?
No kidding. :tup: man, getting that Nagoya attack to work right was killing me for a while, but once I learned the right way to do itā¦ One of the things I like about the weapons is that none of them are perfect. certian weapons are stronger in certian spots, but weaker in other, etc. personally, Iām starting to REALLY hate the search weapon. damn thing starts off rotten. it canāt even keep up with the slow enemies, forget using it on stages where the whole alien army is after you. U B Dead. 
So far, field is my overall favorite. Use it, and the last boss is YOUR bitch.

Good move Treasure, good moveā¦
Thank god. It would have been MADNESS to not add that
Aw SHIET!! I hope Xbox has all the wrinkles ironed out soon. Iām gonna be all up on that! That reminds me. I need a good router for the Internet connections. computers, TV, Videogames, theyāre all taking a bite outta this thing now. Looks like my wallet is about to get shot too.

Iāve been playing through Ikaruga lately. Holy crap that game is hard Iām stuck on the second level right nowā¦
So, this fall we have another treyarch history
shooter Vs. An unproven property (new developer
and direction). Which one are you guys thinking
about grabbing. I can only imagine that call of
duty is going to stick to itās get cozy, set some
mines and grow your streak formula that made
me love bad company 2 so much. Does anyone
know if metal of honor will be doing anything
differently? Metal of Honorās single player looks to
be awesome but I know nothing about the
multiplayer. I am really looking forward to killzone
3 and the next Socom but their relative silence
leads me to believe that they will come out later
next year with killzone 3 going head to head with
gears in the fall.
Thatās to say nothing of resistance 3 which
hopefully reverts back to the first one and gives
us the weapon wheel and takes away the fucking
regenerating health.
Oh, and is duke dropping this year?
Trippy. I donāt have a clue as to what this is.
Aaaaand more people thinking this is a FPS thread:rofl:
Hopefully youāre not trying to chain much right?
They just be trolling (smh).
Lol yeah. That will get you killed. You play Ikaruga to win until that becomes easy. Then you play to chain.
If thatās how you get shot, then thatās how you get shot.
You know what we do to trolls around here.

So I now have an iPhone 4, and have proceeded to use it to get shot. Thus far the clear best-in-class shmups on the platform are
- Caveās stuff
- Infinity Gene
- Space deadbeef (yup)
- rRootage
iFighter seems to be well done, but is really retro (read: boring). Iāve given quick plays of the following:
- SkyForce Revenge
- Sky Thunder
- Siberian Strike
- Super Laser
and they all suffer from the annoying control quirk of ātouch the screen where you want your plane to beā, which drives me nuts. That and theyāre also boring. Are there any really-awesome titles Iām missing?
^Nope. There are some good twin stick shooters out there as well.
That could be applied to just about every shooter. Play to beat the game first, then work on the maximization.
Youāre damn right!
I took a little break from getting shot to work on Sengoku Basara. Howās my fellow firepower fiends doing?

Played Sky Shark for NES recently. Either it was this hard when I played it so long ago or my shmup skills have waned. I was sweating like a son of a bitch playing that game.
Terrible my dude. I aināt been shot in a minute.
