Wow, Air Zonk ran away with it.  I would have expected something more serious like R-Type to take it, honestly.  BTW, who's the other person who voted for Aldynes?  You, my friend, are a kindred spirit! :D

I'm a little surprised Magical Chase isn't getting more love.  Perhaps the 2 people that voted for it are the only 2 on the forums that actually have it? :D

Air Zonk isn't even that good.  It gets boring.

Coryoon is the same game with dragons and fruit.

I love fruits.

I love R-type but yeah I'm kinda surprised R-type didn't take this. Still need to get through Air Zonk though -_-

NOOOOO!!!!

I think Air Zonk is one of the less boring shooters.  The partnerships mix it up at least; I get sick of the shooters that require you to memorize which power-ups to collect/never die (like Super Aeleste).  Nothing fun about taking on a boss with a pea shooter.

It's a single favorite game poll. I love Magical Chase, but there are so many great horizontal shooters for PC Engine that it isn't my favorite above all else.

No other HuCard shooter has affected me the way Aeroblasters has from the first time I played it. The Genesis and arcade versions are cool games, but there is something special about the Turbo version that makes it so much more than the sum of its parts.


I wonder what percentage of the games in the poll the average voter has actually played? I'm guessing that Air Zonk is also the most played game in the list.

Well you don't have to own the game to vote for it.  I've only ever played most of these games on an emulator, but Aldynes still takes the cake, for me.

I've played every game on this list, and Im not a big fan of horizontal shooters really.

it takes alot to really like one.  

Why wasn't paranoia on there? It's my favorite of favorites.

and, Mr. Heli barely counts.  That game's totally different,and awesome!
