1942 could be a good choice too. It's on tons of platforms. I wouldn't mind Ikaruga either though...

I know we don't want more RPG suggestions, least of all another JRPG, but this one IS a little different: How about Ys?

Its on Master System, Turbo CD, Virtual Console, PSP and DS at elast. probably lots more.

Bleh. We haven't done any bullet hell yet, I think it is high time.

is Ikaruga considered bullet hell, or are you just pushing for DDP?

I'd be willing to try DoDonPachi if Fantasy Zone doesn't make the cut.

However, I'm not playing Ikaruga. I really don't get all the praise for this game. (not trying to start an argument.)

It would be considered bullet hell, but I am really pushing for DDP. For one, people can credit feed to the end if they are so inclined to see everything. That's harder to do with Ikaruga. For another, I think DDP is the the best example of an earlier CAVE shmup that there is.

I worded this funny did anyone realize I was questioning the game Gain Ground on genesis.I think its a top down shooter/defense game pretty fun and if you play the game on Hard you get instant access to all 20+ characters.

And the 1942's are on the capcom generations vol.2 I believe.Ps2,xbox.

I still like Baldurs Gate (Dark alliance) as my choice for Rpg.
If you can see the future while remembering the past, you may just have control of the present.

Oh okay, found your Thread linked from the OP. Maybe it could be stickied so it can be found later? Or if Racketboy wouldn't mind including it in his Stickied OP, a link to you annual updated list?

I don't care if it's only on one system. Shenmue has got to be in TR one day.
