Revolution Ace is 19 cents on Steam. It looks pretty average but it's 19 cents.

Just two weeks later Mamorukun Curse and Raiden IV Overkill are both on sale on US PSN again. (Flash sale, so this weekend only.)

https://store.playstation.com/#!/en-us/ ... KUNCURSE01
https://store.playstation.com/#!/en-us/ ... IVOKUS0001

Raiden IV is even cheaper this time and does not require Plus for the discount.

I picked up Raiden 3 and Crimzon Clover off Steam yesterday for $2.49 each. Dunno if they have been/will be a daily/flash deal, but at that price point, who cares.

ALL HAIL THE SUMMER SALE.

I picked up Ikaruga and Redux: Dark Matters for cheap (and some non-shmups as well - Shantae: Risky's Revenge).

Jamestown is also on sale for 4 bucks. Love that game, and now it's cheaper than a sandwich.

CapCom Arcade Cabinet is currently $12.00 for the full package on PSN.


This would get you 1942, 1943, Commando, Gun.Smoke, Savage Bees, Side Arms, Section Z. I think that's it for the STGs, but there's a few beat em ups too and some platformers and other stuff. Can't remember what the 2 bonus games were for getting all the games, but I think they were both shooters.

Geometry Wars 3 is free this month on Vita/PS3 for PSplus members. Not quite as lean and mean as previous games in the series, but still quite good.

Also make sure to pick up Rocket League if you have a PS4 because uh... it's pretty much the greatest game ever.

It looks like Sol Divide is on Steam now. Based on the title screen in the trailer and what the publisher has also released, I am guessing this is the NA PS1 version of the game. On "sale" for $3.74 until 7/20: http://store.steampowered.com/app/379350/
