It isn't overly long and has some of the coolest bosses this side of //​[[game:​Guwange]]//​. ​     * chompers po pable: //​[[game:​Blazing Star]]// is fantastic, and even moreso with two players.

 +    * Felix: Actually a really darn good tough-but-fair,​ gorgeous, straightforward space shooter. Doesn'​t get mentioned enough.

My problem with //​[[game:​metal_slug_3|3]]//​ (popular favorite) is the enemies eventually take too much damage and it just gets too hard to stay alive.     * Rudie: //​[[game:​metal_slug_x|X]]//​ is a remixed version of //​[[game:​metal_slug_2|2]]//​ and is my favorite //​[[game:​metal_slug_series|Metal Slug]]//.

 +    * 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.

 +    * Felix: It's an R-Type knockoff, but an impressive one if you like slower-paced shooters.

     * The Blueberry Hill: I prefer the Saturn version, for its extra modes, but any is more than fine. It's wonderful, frantic, wonderful, and wonderful.     * The Blueberry Hill: I prefer the Saturn version, for its extra modes, but any is more than fine.

     * The Blueberry Hill: Basically, it's a //​[[game:​Pong]]//​ update. 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). It's a highly satisfying, speedy, and nuanced multiplayer game. And one of the system'​s best. It's also supported by [[software:​GGPO]]!     * The Blueberry Hill: Basically, it's a //​[[game:​Pong]]//​ update.

 +    * 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.
