Post by: Pixel_Outlaw on October 16, 2007: Ok

DonPachi
DoDonPachi
Mars Matrix
ESPRade
Gekirido
Gradius (series)
Grid Seeker
Gunbird
Gunbird 2
Progear
R-Type(series)
Raiden (series)
V-V
Varth
Zerowing

These are all good games but all the cool kids are playing DonPachi and DoDonpachi on one credit. I like shmups personally because they kick you in the balls then throw you through a glass window. If you are serous about playing this genre you won't use more than one credit.

Look here for more names of good arcade shmups.

Metal Slug
OutRun
1945

Post by: Hotshot on February 17, 2009: Abit like Afterburner in Space ;D ;)
Title: Re: Mame Gaming?
Post by: relsoft on February 18, 2009: I play what PO plays plus the Psykyo games.
Notably:

Strikers 19xx series and Gunbird 2.

I could 1cc Stikers 1945 II (until 2-8) ang to to 2-7 at strikers 1999 on the arcades. Playing on mame with a 2USD ps2 controller wannabe is not fun. :*(

*back to playing Homura on the Ps2. Still waiting for Psyvariar ultimate JP to arrive.

Post by: Pixel_Outlaw on February 18, 2009: There was a time when I had 80 shmups for MAME. But out of guilt for unpaid games, I cut it down to the games I own. Thankfully I own many arcade games on licensed compilation packages for my ps2/Dreamcast.

Psyvariar 1 is the only import I own for my ps2 and was hardly worth he swap disks I bought to play it. I planned to import more, but I can afford 100 bucks per import. I can't imagine the guys who shell thousands out for PCB arcade games. Some of the shmup players would sell their first born for CAVE PCBs.

Post by: relsoft on February 19, 2009: Oh bummer! Psyvariar sucks?
Title: Re: Mame Gaming?
Post by: Pixel_Outlaw on February 19, 2009: Well, not totally but if feels very generic/rushed. I think it is OK but not really memorable.

Oh crap! I just got Psyvariar 2 ultimate and guess what?

I 1CC'ed it on my first try!

It's freaking easy it hurts. I've never had a SHMUP I could 1CC on my first try and I have like 3 live remaining.

GFX was excellent but the bullet patterns are too tailored for grazing which are too easy to dodge(or graze) BTW. :*(
