This was a genre while perhaps not live with color, still had a faint pulse on the PS2. With games like Sylpheed, R-Type, Gradius, Raiden there was a decent amount to keep a fan of the genre satisfied from time to time.
My hopes now that online arcade style games are being made and sold on the 360 & PS3 that perhaps the shooter genre will somehow manage to hone this potential and come out with some good follow ups. It's the perfect medium for the genre to carry on in this generation. @Skexis I don't know if you do or plan on getting a 360 (doesn't really sound like it), but Treasure did say at one point that they were bringing Ikaruga to the 360 live arcade. Perhaps it'll come to the PSN someday too. Never know. How ya doing, buddy?  |

Ah, I see, too bad, would have been fun to have done co-op over LIVE in Ikaruga.

That's probably why R-Type is my favouriate horizontal shooter. Because it doesn't make you feel like an amputee against an endless army. It just makes you feel like a common robber with a 9mm trying to take on Fort Knox... just the way I like em. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
