Does Space Invaders actually count as a side scrolling shooting game?
The only ones that I have played are Life Force for the NES and Super R-Type for the SNES. Both great although these games tend to suffer slowdown. Only managed to finish Super R-Type on easy, don't think I ever completed Life Force, even on two player. Anyone played Life Force?
Jam it back in, in the dark.
