144,050 is my highest score on the pce version so far. Anyone else tried this version? Its one of the hardest shmups Ive played. I need to give the mame version a shot and see how different they all are.

Thanks for updating the OP.

Konami, eh? Didn't realize there were so many!

+3 Axelay
+2 Ajax
+1 Time Pilot

I'm good on all 3 of those. Practice Time Pilot on an actual arcade machine every month, and have Axelay -- I too would agree with something other than Gradius :lol:

Forgot they did Mega Zone -- might be a tad bit obscure for some people, plus that was arcade only. LOVED it though!

Dude, cmon. How the hell am I supposed to calculate that in a vote? I'll count +3 Gradius IV, but there is no way to accurately count "SNES/Genesis shmup".

Fiiiiine. +2 Axelay and +1 LifeForce (NES).

Did Konami publish no proper shmups on the Genny?

XEXEX +3
Salamander/Life Force +2
Axelay +1

Admittedly I haven't played many Konami shmups, but although I'm voting for games I've played and like very much (aside Axelay), I'm hoping a game I'm not familiar with is picked.

Standings So Far
Axelay 9
Detana Twinbee 6
Salamander/Life Force 6
Twinbee Yahoo! 5
Time Pilot 5
Gyruss 3
Gradius IV 3
XEXEX 3
Ajax 2
Sexy Parodius 2
Trigon 2

(o.pwuaioc, your votes are included here. I posted right after you.)
