Gigawing 1 and 2
Mars Matrix
Rainbow Cotton
Gunbird 2
Zero Gunner 2
Rez (not oldskool,but too cool ;) )

Although the game ARMADA is no real old school shooter, it is still a shooter with some additions of role-playing elements.

Hi there, i'm also a shmup fan :) I recommend you try Charge 'n Blast although it isn't oldskool. I wish i had Rainbow Cotton, tell me if u want to trade :p

Good,good,i didnt expect to get any replies :) So Armada and Charge n Blast huh,TY guys...Im looking for reviews already.Sure we can trade,ill private message you.

OK one more question :fave shmup of all time,or top 3 @ least.

IKARUGA here (after having a hard time making my choice between Lord Ikaruga and Master RType (1 and Delta).

Best chain: 97 in Chapter 2 (hope its good enough ;) )

Not bad, not bad... If you wanna get Armada, then just PM me.
(BTW, I am the lousiest shoot'em-up player in the world, but a skilled VF3 gamer)

Oh my God,just found there is another REAL oldskool 2D shooter:


<<TWINKLE STAR SPRITES>>

Getting it @ this very moment :D

Oh by the way,updated Ikaruga record,today i did 101 on stage 2,but they only gave A Rank :( I think its related with a bad boss repulse time,i was nervous with my 101 and didnt want to get killed,so destroyed that beautiful orb with a TOO careful tech...Its ok though,ill play again tomorrow :cool:

Very nice scores in Ikaruga :) I haven't played it that much and i've only managed to get to the 4th stage without continue heh. Anyway Twinkle Star Sprites is quite old as i've used to play it in Saturn, i think it's on psx aswell. Anyway currently i'm playing Gigawing 2 score attack mostly, bomberman online and Power Stone2 (with some friends of mine). Power Stone 2 is the only game that is so addictive in 4 player mode. Last time we started playing at about 11pm and finished playing at about 8am in the morning!
