What shmup are you playing now?

Just tried out Mamonoro for the first time. I see myself playing more of this. It's a vertical monitor game but not forced scrolling, you have a time limit though. Very interesting and fun at least on first impression.

downloaded this from PSN last night:

Kyuiin ($5.99)
Kyuiin delivers a highly creative and very clean horizontal scroller. Your flying machine is a vacuum cleaner. Your weapons include sucking up enemies with your hose and whipping them with your cord. This remarkably original title has innovative gameplay and a well-balanced scoring system.
File Size: 131 MB

it's not excactly the most challenging shmup I've ever played, but it is pretty fun. It's got a wacky Parodius feel to it or Cho Aniki. I know I'm not the biggest supporter of downloadable games, but I have to admit that bringing these PS1 imports to PSN and making them playable on both PS3 and PSP is fucking awesome. $6 is a little more (a LITTLE) than I want to pay for digital files, and really I'd be far happier if I got a physical PS3 release with 10 or more of these compiled together. But still. I had never even heard of this one, so I am pleased that these imports are happening.

Dodonpachi Dai ou Jou Black Label

Finally got my mits on this game, and holy crap! Its everything I hoped for and more. Much more my taste than Dai Fukkatsu, although I am still having fun with that one as well.

^1P only? If 2P, does it allow for play w/an online partner? Gawd, I hate downloads, from what your saying, i'd easily pay $20 for a disc, but have a hard time justifying $6 for a download.
