This look nice.

9/10. It's not accent core but Strive is a great romp. Nerf Sol

Incredibly poor netcode dooms this game, especially releasing so close to strive. Its a real shame, because it seems otherwise to be an excellent fighter - but going online and finding your links aren't working because the game is delaying you by 4 frames - that's some bullshit.

COMPLETED: 10/10. Best PS5 game.

Ok i'm just finishing this one off rn.

COMPLETE - 10/10

I spent £30 on this shit im gonna try it properly.

PLAYED: It's Raiden IV but with an additional soundtrack that's... worse? 6/10

This game seems right up my alley, gonna give it a whirl

Nope, this fucking sucks. 1/10

Feeling like a replay of this is in order

The more time passes, sadly, the more i dislike this game. A great concept with some ludicrously good execution at times and a loveable core cast is let down by very weak core gameplay and a story that just moves so damn slow for no real reason.

6/10

SHELVED: 1/10, Absolute joke of a game lol.

Played, 8.5/10 great version of a sloppy but lovely and experimental rhythm game.

9/10 - A wondeful gaiden chapter for travis that fills in the hiatus and clears out grasshoppers baggage all the same. Incredibly cathartic storywise, let down by levels that just drag on a bit too long.

see previous.

PLAYED: 8/10. It's not a shmup. It's weird and cool though, and the soundtrack slaps really hard.

I fear I am too dumb for this game. I shouldn't but i do.

SHELVED - 6/10 - QOL fucking sucks but otherwise cool.

The cytus songs in djmax absolutely slap, and back in the day i loved the PS mobile (lol) version of this. Worth a shot, and the aesthetic is dead on.

Why is the progression so damn slow on the switch version which is $35

4/10

This one's a push - but i'd like to 1CC Greg. It's kinda a long shot for a legendarily brutal game.

Fata Morgana is one of my favourite games. I've been putting this off because i've been a little worried it wont live up to it but i really should just get round to it, huh.

COMPLETE - 9/10

Go for the Hard 1cc if i beat SDOJ

Good shmup! You cant buy it!

8/10

COMPLETED: 7/10 - Wild but too long even for a 4 hour game. Cool art project. Someone check IOI is ok.

6.5/10 - A sloppy, but still fairly entertaining sequel to NMH that is dissapointing in that regard, but viewed on it's own merits, is a bonkers enough 5 hours to be worth your time.

Everyone says this is the good touhou

10/10, it is indeed, the good touhou

Playing this singleplayer was not the finest idea, it kinda just sucks. Maybe if i can persuade someone to join me. 4/10

10/10

I've written a full review which i think does the game more service. Find your true path.

PLAYED: One of those very middle of the road, good but not particularly interesting Shmups. Fine. 6/10

1cc

Ok it's more like I'm a bit of a way through it and need to keep going.

Replay - Ironman

PLAYED - Dang it actually is rad as hell. Feels kind of obscenely broken in balance terms and is frankly, very weird looking, but exudes some creepy vibes i kinda love. 9/10

Provided that the update for cozmic revelation comes out.

PLAYED: Utterly rad Cave shmup that im really glad to have tried, with an excellent aesthetic and some great boss fights, but suffers from some fairly awkward control and movement restrictions which make certain moments feel worse than they should. Good fun though.

8/10

TLB2 is still one of the prettiest games on the Neo Geo, and has an obscenely good sense of atmosphere. Shame the gameplay is just worse than Samsho, but hey ho. 8/10

Contingent on a Saturn emulator working for 5 minutes.

SHELVED - Fun sense of humour and all, but its one of these shmups which are way too slow - 6/10

7/10 - We live in hell.
