About this listen
Is there such a thing as a "Christmas Shoot 'em up"? Yes there is. It's called Deathsmiles II. It's very good.
Have we played Deathsmiles II for the festive season because that would be relevant and make sense? No.
Instead, have we picked 10 random shmups and distributed them equally between both co-hosts in an attempt to determine which video game would theoretically top the music charts as the equivalent of Christmas number 1? Yes.
Are we probably insane? Also yes.
Join us in this ridiculous two part exercise as we rank some of the best (and most average) shmups we've ever played:
- DoDonPachi DaiOuJou (2002)
- Darius Gaiden (1994)
- Earthion (2025)
- Danmaku Unlimited 3 (2017)
- Raging Blasters (2021)
- Andro Dunos II (2022)
- Raiden V: Directors Cut (2019)
- Crimzon Clover World EXplosion (2020)
- Thunder Force IV (1992)
- Radiant Silvergun (1998)
Merry Shmup-mas one and all!
