Great 2d Shooters


The r-type series on the PC engine, and R-type 3 on the SNES are both fantastic. Also, blazing lazers on the PC engine (though I think it has a glitch that stops you getting past level 2?)...
 
Space Megaforce (Super Aleste) on SNES was awesome. Tons of mode 7 and no slowdown. It actually runs decent on OpenSNES even with sound.
 
Been playing Gradius V quite alot lately, and damn that game is hard. Makes you wonder... How someone can make a game so anoyingly hard, that still is overly addictive ;)

Also Aeroblaster for PCE. It's called Airbuster for Mame, but I find the PCE version to be better :blink:

Oh yeah. Also Project X for the Amiga.... HARD! Never did get past level 2.
