What old school shooters would you guys like to see on xbla?

R-Type for me.

r-type, forgotten worlds, gunstar heroes (pretty sure that counts), arcus odyssey, and phelios :)

I have fond memories of Gunstar Heroes. Beats the crap out of Contra.

Spriggan

Thunder Force III

Lords of Thunder

M.U.S.H.A.

Radiant Silvergun (not exactly classic)

---

New scallion flavor!

i'd love to see ikaruga on xbla.

---

Don't Tread On Me.

ikaruga is back on partner net and in working condition this time around.  Im looking forward shikigami and raiden aces/raiden.

---

Zombies everywhere, zombies everywhere, zombies everywhere. They're coming for your brains and it's too late to change.

Giga Wing, DoDonPachi, Psyvariar 2, Twin Bee, Vasara, Raiden Fighters Jet, etc etc

Gigawing, Ikagura, Raiden Fighters, Do Don Pachi (sorry if spelt badly)  S.W.I.V (not sure if ever an aracde game but it rocked)

Oddly enough those are all Verticle scorllers...... hmmmm

I second Gunstar Heroes, what about Mercs? Was a pretty hardcore game later on and Capcom made some quite good shoot-em-ups i think. Also what about Bangai O

"In the safety of our homes, a perfect forever"

Mercs is Commando 2 and Commando 3 is currently being made for XBLA.

85 200/200
05 250/250

Really? Where was it called Commando. Off topic, i want the new street fighter Capcom are making for the XBLA but where is it??? :(((

---

"In the safety of our homes, a perfect forever"

All Gradius saga, Ikaruga, Radiant Silvergun, Gunstar Heroes... And surely there´s a lot more I don´t know about I just want more!!

Loaded on the PS1 was a really great shooter and a game also on PS1 called overblood as i recall was really really cool, lots of blood and gore ^^

3 of those are from Treasure... I am more a Cave fan myself. Guwange, DoDonPachi, and Progear - Although Ikaruga is still my fave - I never cared much for RS, but Alien Soldier rocks.

R-Type for me.

Level design in O5 reminds me a lot of R-Type's

---

Raiden Trad, Insector X, and the thunder force games :)

yea i never actually owned it but that game takes me back to the sega channel days lol. I must've played it for weeks since that game was on the top of their list along with vector man, the phantasy star series, and a few others

I'll add another vote for R-Type.

I'd also like to see Team 17's Project X.

Atomic Robo Kid

Gates of Thunder

Gunners Heaven

Keio Flying Squadron

but most importantly: CHO ANIKI!!!!!

New scallion flavor!

Gradius series, R-Type series, Mercs, Ikaruga (I believe this one is already coming soon), and a few countless others I played way back in the arcades but forgot the names of :P

Hahaha!

The fragile minds of the Halo kiddies would explode at the mere sight of it. Southern parents would sue MS for having "homosexual propaganda" on the console. Jack Thompson would lose his mind. It would be excellent!

The first Commando is called Senjou no Ookami in Japan, and Mercs is Senjou no Ookami II.

Ahh, cool, thanks ^^ i only ever knew it as Mercs, i remember getting it for christmas when i was about 9 years old for the Megadrive. Man it was pretty hard but the new mode they added in where you got to have 5 guys was pretty cool though.

"In the safety of our homes, a perfect forever"

id have to agree with guwange and dondon...maybe parodius, aero blazers or fighters forget which, strikers 1945, einhander.

---

Zombies everywhere, zombies everywhere, zombies everywhere. They're coming for your brains and it's too late to change.

I'd love to have Raiden and R-Type

Progear, Guwange, Battle Bakkraid, Gunbird, Raystorm, Gigawing, Dragon Blaze, Dangun Feveron, Mars Matrix, ESP Ra. De ...

 

I'll have to stop there. The list is rather extensive.

---

You don't say.

The horridly translated Zero Wing would be great too.

But that would risk another round of the "all your base are belong to us....."  craze of 2000. Not sure I could handle that a second time!

Einhander owns all.

To add a few more:

UN Squadron.
Strikers 1945
Salamander.
