I guess there is also that King of Fighters shmup coming soon.

Try Omega 5 in the Live Arcade. Side scrolling. Weird ass game, but fun.

Also, R-Type in the Live Arcade. Avoid Aces of the Galaxy, tho. It's an on rails Star Fox type game, but it's kinda meh at best.

I really suck at these tyes of games, but I love them.
I tried Aces of the Galaxy and deleted it fast. R-Type is good, but I'm not paying fifteen bucks for it.

Is Omega 5 the one with the big mechs? First level is like an arctic scenario? I couldn't decide if I wanted that or not, because the demo is so damn short. Is it good?

Also, thanks for reminding me about Raiden Fighters Aces, you magnificent bastard. I saw that announced way back when, then forgot aboot it.

Fignuts: I'll look for the thundersomething.

HS: Merci. I'd never heard of those.
