i'm kind of disappointed about how many of you don't appreciate the awesomeness of the 2nd to none R-Type
Oh I assure you, I love R-type to death. I think it, Raiden, 1942, and Skyshark were the first 4 shooters I spent forever on as a child.
However, Blazing Lazers has just so much batshit insane weaponry, it's hard not to love it. R-type was all about insane levels and the coolest bosses ever to grace the screen in 10 years. BL was all about the most insane weapons in any shooter ever. I have yet to meet a game that can equal the craziness of your weaponry in that.
