+ | * Felix: Objectively it's probably the best game in the series. I have a lot of affection for the original because I can 1cc it, but this game has more varied level design and is better balanced for co-op. As Rudie said, 3 gets to be a bit much, even though it is grandiose and spectacular. | ||

*T.: I'm one of like three people whose favorite sort of [[genre:shooter|STG]] are brutally difficult hori memorizers, so this is an obvious favorite. It helps that unlike //[[game:Rayxanber 2]]// or //[[game:Rezon]]// it's absurdly gorgeous. Time it took to beat (playing a few credits daily): a bit over 2 months. | *T.: I'm one of like three people whose favorite sort of [[genre:shooter|STG]] are brutally difficult hori memorizers, so this is an obvious favorite.

With the significant changes being the ability to catch the disc, multiple characters with differing strengths, and interesting shot options (like the ability to bend shots).

+ | * Felix: It's lacking a tiny little bit of depth or something to be a classic, but it is a lot of fun for being updated Pong. | ||
