The Shoot-em-up Thread!

Ikaruga ftw.

Although watching insane people play insanely makes me die on the inside...because I can never be that insane.
 
Aw shucks! I was thinking about making a thread like this... Oh well that what I get for procrastinating.

Anyway, my fave Shmups would have to be:

Castle of Shikigami III

ESPGaluda

Mushihimesama

Ikaruga
 
whoo..downloading Ikaruga on xbox live (had on gamecube a while ago) once I get my 1600 cboc live points and free watchmen tickets in the mail..WHOOOO
 
Sooooo...anyone playing Raiden Fighters Aces on the 360? It's a compilation of RF1, RF2 and RFJet. I've never played an RF game before, and there's a bunch of stage specific tricks to learn. And after all this time I finally answer my long-pondered question of "what the hell is a Miclus?" Aces also adds the essential features like tate/rotational display, scoreboards, replays, boss rush, different difficulties, training mode, and even lets you keep the stages fixed. No online coop but I hear those weren't too great for Ikaruga and R-Type XBLA anyway...
