DoDonPachi: Resurrection. Arrived in the mail today and I popped it in the 360 just to "test" it. Ended up playing for like 45 minutes. Great game, though I don't seem to be very good at it (then again, I didn't read the instructions yet :lol: ). I'm itching to play again but I want to finish one of my summer challenge games first.

Urban Uprising: Dark New World. It kind of reminds me of a vertically scrolling R-Type that focuses on upgrades for you options and bullet hell. I love it very much. http://www.interq.or.jp/saturn/takuhama/Shooting4.html Oh yeah, did I mention it's freeware?
These are my finest threads. Please, enjoy:

I'll be playing a whole mess of classics tomorrow on my monthly arcade excursion tomorrow, and I'll be reporting the scores.

Otherwise, Metal Black and Gekirindan.

Please tell us more! Monthly arcade excursion?

I've been at those two as well. No luck either yet.

Also been playing Vapor Trail!

I am playing SOMETHING today - I really want to focus on just one something though.

What are you feeling, Chaz? Ra.De or Gekirindan?

I'm game for Deathsmiles or Trizeal as well, but I need to focus on one game this weekend.

Hmm... Gekirindan sounds pretty good to me! Wouldn't mind grinding down on that one today. I wish I had a better port/board of this one though, playing it without TATE kinda stinks.

I'm always down for some Cave goodness though (Ra.De being my only Cave game now, when I once had over a dozen :( )

I traded my F3 Gekirindan board when it lost out as the SotM back in January...totally regretting it :/

Maybe i'll do a bit of Ra.De now and then some Geki in bed tonight.

Do we have a Ra.De thread yet? Noise / fvgazi / others...this one plays pretty well in MAME iirc, join us?

I'd rather spend some time with Geki as I have a physical copy.

BTW, Mike... you should get Akai Katana soon.

Yeah, def going to.

Chaz, what are you doing on Ra.De? I'm only hitting 250K range so far...love these bosses though.
