The worst thing about the 19xx series is how the years are out of order. :lol:

Little review of one of my childhood favorites, Air Fortress. It surprises me how little-known this game is... frankly it's (mostly) awesome, and that's not just nostalgia talking.

Damn, I've been slacking. Well, here's a little review... another shmup, Ryu Jin, chosen solely because it was February's Shmup of the Month here on RB. Not a bad game, but I don't feel like I'm in much of a position to judge it with any sort of credibility.

I saw your review on Ryujin. Taito published it, but it was developed by East Technology, probably more known for the arcade version of Double Dragon III.

Change Air Blade is sort of the same. It was developed by a company called AiSystem Tokyo, and published by Sammy.
