Your Top 5 Favorite Shmups?
Saw the fighter thread and it made me curious as to what some of your favorite shoot em ups are.

Re: Your Top 5 Favorite Shmups?
If you consider it a shmup, feel free to list it! (I thought Exes would be the one to bring up the genre line with Cannon Spike 
)
Accidentally put this in Fighters xD can one of you modfolk move it?

I'm surprised Guwange made it over Ra.De for you Brad! They are both so good!
Ill have my list done soon... I had a harder time doing this than I thought I would.

I really love Guwange
Re: Your Top 5 Favorite Shmups?
I wish alot of Shmups wouldnt of had the names changed when they were being translated to NA, it gets so confusing when every region has a completely different name for the same game, its things like this in the gaming world that are messed up!
My picks are pretty mainstream popular and nothing niche, not that i dont enjoy the niche or hidden gems.
1. Contra 3
2. Gradius 3
3. U.N. Squadron (SNES version)
4. Aero Fighters
5. Darius Twin
