It looks crap.
If you think you're a great gamer then try it.
However, this Ikaruga or whatever its called looks crap. I dont mean the graphics. I mean the whole aspect. Shoot shoot bang bang flip over ooo white and black shoot shoot.

Mario 3 was the best Mario, teh 2D Soncis beat the 3D versions hands down. Pac-man was excellent, as were 2D space shooters such as Gradius. Oh, and Super Metroid was better. Not many 3D games are actually better thantheir 2D counterparts.

I liked Gradius, I've never played R-Type, I like these games. That's why I want it.
I'll probably pick it up, but after burnout 2 and skies
This game looks really sucky.
2D shooters were dull back in the days when every other game was a 2D shooter so you HAD to play them. Why anyone would actually go out of their way to play them I can't imagine.
