| Vertical Shooters, anyone?
Hey, throw down your favourite vertical shooter.
I love vertical shooters, they're so under-rated. It's such a unique genre of game, and they take an under-represented amount of talent to play.
Companies like Psikyo and Capcom made shooters that were near impossible. The persistent and unrelenting stream of enemies and bullets lead the player to display a constant stream of aerial finesse.
My favourite shooters have to be (and I have a lot because I love them)
Ikaruga
Giga-Wing
Aero Fighters/Sonic Wings 3
Raiden III
Gunbird 2
(and of course some classics)
Galaga
Gradius III
Lifeforce
R-Type
It's just such a beautiful and lost genre--someone needs to release a new one that is incredible. |
