Best Genesis/MD shooters???

[majors]

I have a history with Thunder Force 3, so I adore it. Even over Lightening Force, much to my fellow local gamers puzzlement. I also have not played enough of the R@REs (Gleylancer, Eliminate Down, etc) but I'm sure they're just peachy. Musha get's my #2 vote, Compile had me at Spriggian. I never got into Gaiares...bought it when it came out, beat it and traded it out. It's good, but I'd rather hold on to TF3/Musha.

dddd1234 -> Wonder what you think about Twin Cobra since you hate Dragon Saber so much. Check point shooters...blah...

Wasn't Tatsujin released on the Genesis/MD as well?

Wasn't Tatsujin released on the Genesis/MD as well?

Yep.  It's on the list as Truxton (its US name).

Where's Keranu to sing the praises of Insector X?

:-"

(I wonder who added that game to the poll...)

Nice to see Arrow Flash on there. Not a grade A shooter, but I really liked the music so I have a soft spot for it.

[Otaking]

Have a real soft spot for Thunder Force II, but voted for the epic Thunder Force IV!!!

Personally I think MD Musha Aleste is lame, PC Engine Spriggan is sooooo much better in every way!

ECCO THE DOLPHIN.

I've finished this game before. Not too bad actually. At least they give you bombs.

Who uses bombs?

But what is wrong with Raiden for Sega??? It is a pretty solid port of the game.
Sure little details are removed and somethings simplified, But I like this port.

It's such a poor port. they used like 4 colors for the entire game , that is even too less for a genny game. therefore we also call it Raiden Fraud.

The PCE one looks so much better.

[ddd1234]

Come one...stop being so picky. The excellent playability is still there. I will be picking up copy of Genesis Raiden in the future for sure. I love the Genesis.

But why do some bosses take forever to kill???

T. Force IV is the best, but my favorite is Phelios.  (NOT LISTED!?!?!)  lol,

[geise]

Yeah I forgot to mention that one TurboStar.  Half the games on that list were recently put up there from my suggestions, and others.  I see quite a few I suggested got a few votes from others.  So that is good.  Phelios is actually pretty good even on MD/Genesis.  But since DDD hates Dragon Saber I doubt he'll put Phelios on there.

Gaiares, Wings of Wor and Phelioisoioisois man.
