Favorite Irem game?
« on: September 02, 2014, 03:41:00 PM »
Irem was once such a good company. Shame what they have turned into. Their pinnacle was definitely on the pc engine.

What was your favorite Irem game?

Mine is Mr. Heli. It was one of the first pce games I beat, and I love it's quirkyness and amazing sprite work. Runner ups for me are Tonma and ninja spirit.

Haven't played R-Type on PCE yet. Know it's on NES but Metal Storm is my favorite as well.

Tough decision between R Type and Ninja Spirit. Voted for Ninja Spirit because I'm able to beat it unlike R Type.

I've been playing In the Hunt, which is a pretty fun game. Irem made a lot of great games.

R-Type is the most well known IREM game, and the game that made people buy the PCE, but I'm voting Mr Heli. Just a cute and playable game, and well executed on the PCE hardware.

Voted Image Fight II, because the fact it even exists is amazing.

Ninja Spirit for me, though Gekisha Boy is also damn good.  Sol Moonarge (not Moonrage) also looks pretty awesome and I have a soft spot for RPGs, but I've not put enough time into it to give it the thumbs up.

My favorite Irem game for the PCE would be R-type Complete. As for them as a company, I really like Dragon Breed. I wish that game would of been ported. But as for my favorite piece of Irem hardware, I love my Madonna cabinet. I should put a Vigilante PCB in there, as you are saving 'Madonna' in the game.

Since R-Type doesn't count as it is the default favorite due to nostalgia alone, Sol Moonarge is my favorite Irem game, PCE or otherwise, and stands far above most of Irem's library for me, as a big RPG fan.

R-type, followed closely by Ninja Spirit. Honorable mention: Vigilante.
