The Shoot-em-up Thread!

Raiden 1 and 2 are the easiest shmups ever. Raiden 2 is also an enemy-for-enemy model swap of Raiden 1, but adds 2 new weapons and a new bomb (the new weapon makes the game even easier than Raiden 1). Still, they're fun enough.

I'm sure everyone has already played Warning Forever, but it's a pretty good time waster.
 
I've been having alot of fun with Fantasy Zone on Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection. Good little break from SC.
 
Touhou is definitely my favorite. I like that there's an equal balance of power between how much you, the player, kick ass and how much the bosses kick ass. Also the sound design is delicately handled such that your ears aren't bleeding from the amount of enemies you're scrapping and the amount bullets you fire.

Anyone ever play Blazing Star for the Neo-Geo? God that game was fun and I have no idea why.

"GET IT MORE!"
 
DoDonPachi Dai Ou Jou Black Label FTW... It COULD have come out in America, but Microsoft is a bunch of assholes.

Any cave shooter is good... ESPGaluda, Mushihimesama, Ibara, etc... Homura is good too, but I forgot who made it.

Of course, cant forget to mention SEXY PARODIUS or RADIAN SILVERGUN or PANZER DRAGOON and TWINKLE STAR SPRITES!
