I really like jp's semi-exhaustive Sega Saturn shmup list found here:

Do you know of any similar lists for Playstation 2?

Bumping for a look see. I think I own/know of most of the good un's, but I can't help thinking i've missed a few...

I don't see why we couldn't start one. I'm pretty sure if one were to combine the collections of all the posters on the forums you would have an exhaustive list.

Just off the top of my head-
Espgaluda
Do Don Pachi - Dai Ou Jou
Ibara
Mushihimesama

Gradius V
Silpheed

The psikyo collections.
Raiden 3

The Castle Shikigami games

The Psyvariar games

tons more I imagine.

edit: R-Type Final. There is also this http://shmups.classicgaming.gamespy.com ... s/ps2.html but I don't think it's up to date.

Thanks for this lead. I wonder what needs to be added to the list found at the above link to make it up to date. Do you think it's accurate that there are about half as many PS2 shmups (approx. 25 according to the link) when compared to Sega Saturn (55, depending on who you ask)?
