Per J T's suggestions, I've been playing Warning Forever and Bullet Candy Perfect. Great games. Now I want to get Irukandji.

Just credit-fed through Syd Mead's Terraforming for the PCE-CD, and I am glad I did. Some of the middle levels are quite cheap, but all of them are interesting aesthetically. Trippy visuals and a GREAT soundtrack balance out the only-decent gameplay...making this one to check out if you are a genre fan.

R-Type Delta on PS1.

I'm saying more 'shit' and 'fuck' than someone with Gilles de la Tourette while playing this one.

This game is not for pussies!...

But it sure is fun... 8)

The only game that has pissed me off more than R-Type Delta is Recca. But even those are in different leagues. RECCA is just not enjoyable after 5 minutes, R-Type I allowed to frustrate me for a good week.

Just got Aerial Assault in the mail today (thanks CatchFiveBats!), and picked up 1942 for the NES for 7 bucks at my local Play N Trade.. Can't wait to dig into these in a few minutes!!

I started playing Jamestown the other day and it rocks! I love the shop and bonus level setup. I'm having a lot of fun grinding away. I'm gonna have to get some friends over for this one lol
