People who fail at the vote format: Bloodreign, Dale, Hardstepah, iatneH, jp, kengou, kozo, Macaw, nimitz, professor ganson, RGC, shoe-sama, Twiddle.

I'll only plead this once: it would be nice if at least everyone on page 1 got it right, to avoid a complete degeneration of formatting from everyone else.

No dot, no colon, nothing fancy, just the number, a space, and the title.

Bad:
1. Bronzerifle
1) Bronzerifle
1: Bronzerifle

Good:
1 Bronzerifle
You could just turn . : and ) into nothing if you're doing a script/program to handle this

top ten is easy

1 Battle garegga
2 dodonpachi
3 armed police batrider
4 batsugun
5 raiden fighters 2
6 battle bakraid
7 zanac neo
8 dodonpachi dai-ou-jou
9 esp-rade
10 gradius v

raiden fighters 2 is the only "fighters" i've ever played so i guess jet or the og version could make it onto the list if i ever pick up the pcbs... i've noticed that none of the newer cave games i've played(epgaluda 2 ,mushimesame etc) have made it on the list..

galaga???

:(

if i could take every galaga cabinet in my state and turn it into a modern game, maybe there would be something to play. but for the record, i think the newest shmup cabinet i've EVER seen in north carolina was galaga 88 or something

Give nostalgia it's due.

I have not, and will not, stand up for Galaga '88 though.

My format is better. Perhaps I should even add a leading zero to entries 01 through 09, and enclose everything in a code tag.

Or how about a mouse-drawn embedded bitmap?
