What shmup are you playing now?

Yes I did check out Space Megaforce, but it was just a bit out of what I was willing to pay (and I'm not against the idea of paying $50+ for a good game but for a genre I'm not entirely sure I'll like I'm hesitant).

Damn, it goes for that much in the US? I picked up the PAL version of Super Aleste for £5 about 2 months back. And £3 of that was the postage

Oh, I was just throwing the $50 out there. You can actually get it for a little over $30 right now on ebay.

Anyways, just finished up Super Metroid last night, so going to be starting Axelay tonight. I also picked up Phalanx.

Ha! I remember when I first saw your avatar I was like "what's with the old dude?" Now it all makes sense!

I just noticed that you have the Japan version. Are you playing it on a Japanese Mega Drive or are you able to play the Japan version on a Genesis?

[ExedExes]

I just love the Japanese name for Fire Shark

SAME! SAME! SAME!

Started Axelay last night and I came to the realization pretty quick:

I suck at shmups.

Yep, iirc both versions are in both games. It just checks the region of the system. Similar to Grindstormer having both it and V-V available.
