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

Fuck.

I was gonna cop some shit this month, but money had to go elsewhere. Looks like the first can’t get here fast enough now. When I get paid, I’m gonna get that 360 lovin going on. might have to drop some money on a new PC too. I don’t wanna get shot, I wanna get shot, have it sound good, and make a videoclip about it.

On another note, STILL Rolling on the ground laughing @ Furry Curry’s sig. :rofl: makes me laugh everytime.

Got my hands on Bullet Soul earlier this week. It’s really fun so far. The only thing I don’t really like is that the “souls” really do nothing in this game, the entirety of scoring is based on acquiring hidden bonuses throughout the levels and shooting enemies point-blank. Still really fun. I actually did a credit-feed run through the game on my livestream channel a few nights ago here:

Just click the Bullet Soul video and check it out.

Overall, the game is fun, but considering it only has the one game mode, I’d try to get it used so you don’t pay $80+ for it.

I just ordered Eschatos and the Space Invaders Infinity Gene soundtrack from PlayAsia today! WHEEEEEEE!!!

Uh oh. I know what I gotta do this friday. Thanks for the head’s up.

Playing Batsugun. Now that it has sound I am enjoying it immensely. I am playing the Special Version and getting to the stage 4 boss without continues, not bad for only one day of playing. Such a great game, old school style fused with modern bullet hell with none of the bizarre gimmicks.

What did yall think of raiden 4?

Cave is publishing Deathsmiles IIX themselves in North America.

I hope this is the start of something beautiful.

better than 3??

its like OG raiden2/dx with HD everything and remixed soundtracks. win imo.

I got use to fighter ace I played the red ship that looks like a HOTH ship from star wars, lol… ALL OVER THE PLACE!

The lack of ships pisses me off I had so many favorites in ACE :confused:
and I’m prolly not giving something new a chance

lol… now I wanna play though :smiley:

One thing you gotta realize is that the Raiden Fighters games are really only related to Raiden by name (they weren’t even originally going to be called “Raiden Fighters”, they just went with it due to name recognition). Raiden games have always been one ship (well, I suppose 4 technically has 3, but you gotta buy the other two, they were never in the arcade version though) with the rotating weapon pickup system. Not that you can’t prefer one over the other, but I wouldn’t go into Raiden 4 expecting anything from the Fighters games.

I’m hoping for a disc release, but we’ll see. I fucking hate download-only games. But however it gets released here, I’ll buy it.

It would have been alright if…

…I didn’t play that beforehand. Fighters Aces blew my shit out. I don’t know even know what the exit point was or even what the ‘shit’ was either but it was blown man. It was blown. So I straight up do not like Raiden IV and I sigh or roll my eyes whenever I see it in my my game binder. Aces is one of those games that makes you feel like you are KICKING ASS. Probably due to that soundtrack that turns my penis into a drill, makes my knuckles white on my brown skin, and grows a booster rocket out of my ass hole.

I mean I really enjoyed Deathsmiles but dude, WHY CAN’T WE GET SOME DODONPACHI!?

iPhone does not count.

1cc’d the first loop of Batsugun with 3.9mil. Felling pretty good about it. Tried the second loop and got to around 4.3mil and lost. Does it count as a 1cc if you beat just the first loop? Does the normal version loop? I have only played the special version.

hell yeah, the soundtrack was sooo in your face as much as the game!

Ive played 4… i got kinda use to it and been wanting to play it more.
the ship count is really lame but the game is fun.
VERY fuckin hard! waaaaay hard!

ACES is the the shyt though! so many ships!
Does this game have a story? OF CORSE! ALIENS!

Videoclip, or it didn’t happen. :rofl:

-Starhammer-

just 1cc’d again with 4.7mil. got to 5.9 on the second loop. I love this game, I guess I can take a screenshot on my next run.

Dai Ou Jou is driving me up the fucking wall.

You playing Black Label? What stage are you at? How far are you getting with chaining?

Im on the third stage trying to chain to the mid-boss but it is incredibly difficult (for me at least!)

And yeah I am playing Black Label, I know how to chain the first two stages so far but I am terrible when it comes time to do a full run lol.

I got a 167 mil ALL score in DOJ:BL before I put it down. But honestly, I would only get the full stage 2 chain once every 20 runs or so. Stage 1 was locked down, Stage 3 was maybe chain both halves, Stage 4 was pieces and Stage 5 was straight survival.

If you’re going for high score I’d encourage you to just try to stabilize Stage 3 and then try to get points on Stage 4, where the chains are easier to get.
