Darius Burst - PSP

Just beat the H Route, default settings, 2cc. Being a huge Darius fan, I can safely say that this is absolutely amazing. A couple of the original Zuntata composers did almost all of the music. This, combined with modern day visuals, made everything even more spacey and trippy than before. A tremendous recommendation to any PSP owners.

And lo the space fish. They are huge, they are shiny. And very delicious.

I've been playing some Gradius IV. Now I have nightmares with bubbles everywhere.

Fuck those bubbles! I actually like Gradius IV quite a bit for some reason.

I've been playing Thunder Dragon. NMK is easily the most underrated shmup dev, with very few of their games ever getting console ports

Me too. It's a quality shmup, just really hard. I really like the graphics on it too. There are some cool effects going on.

I never tried Thunder Dragon. I've only played Zed Blade on the neo, which is pretty cool in it's own right. What's the gameplay like in Thunder Dragon?

Gradius IV is an asshole. Gradius Gaiden is where it's at.

I'm a big fan of Gradius V.
