Mushihimesama Futari Ver. 1.5 is my favorite as of right now. It has breathtaking graphics, perfect controls and excellent music! It has many modes of gameplay plus online leader boards. Overall I would say that the game is almost perfect and anyone that has a 360 should pick this title up if your into SHMUPS. |

I'm willing to buy a few of these games to get further into the genre, can anyone recommend good titles that would fully 'sell' me on shmups as a whole? |
