STG of the Month (October 2012) - Dangun Feveron (No Cats!)

Post by CptRansom »

For next month's STGOTM, I'm going to revisit STGTs of the past. I'm choosing 10 games from STGT'06-'10 and leaving it to you all to decide.

:!: To make things interesting and hopefully get a little more competition, the person with the top score at the end of this month gets to select November's STGOTM. :!:

Vote, chumps. The winner is the game with the most votes at 10pm EST on Sunday, September 30. One vote per person.

R=Game Name & Number of Votes R=Dangun Feveron -No Cats Allowed- & 19 R=Armed Police Batrider & 18 R=Dragon Blaze & 5 R=Progear & 4 R=Rayforce & 2 R=Gigawing & 1 R=Battle Garegga & 1 R=Mars Matrix & 1 R=Viper Phase 1 & 0 R=Raiden Fighters Jet & 0

EDIT:

I'm getting an 'Form was Invalid' message, making voting for RayForce difficult.

Quality list. I voted Batrider since it's the best (except the invalid vote crap struck me too). As great as Garegga is I don't want to play as Gain, and RayForce seems like a bit of a pain to score in.

I was actually practicing a bit of Dragon Blaze just this morning since it's the coolest Psikyo game after all. Playing it over the course of a month would be interesting. I have problems getting anywhere though since I always die trying to get as many coins as possible and misunderstanding the hitbox :D

The only somewhat decent Psikyo.

Also what I would have voted for, even if I don't know how much I'd actually play it.

Anything hori/yoko is good, then I can play on my TV. Also been loving a lot of CPS2 lately.

I don't know why it's giving an invalid. This is the first time I've made a poll, so perhaps I fucked something up?

Weren't all polls broken for some time now? Been reading lots of complaints lately.

Verbal-voting for Dragon Blaze because Psikyo rocks.

Awesome selection by the way.

It would be cool to extend the options beyond the usual arcade suspects - these are all fine games but my mind has me elsewhere right now. RFJ is a great game (still need to check my board is working...damn supergun) but I'm still working on RF right now. None of these would feel like "real" variety to me, sadly.

Thanks, dude. =)

Verbal voting for this month then. I'll keep track on a table. If you guys could do me a favor when you vote, and make your selection the first part of your post, that'd be fantastic. It's not that I don't love reading everyone's paragraphs on why X game is better than Y and why I'm horrible at running these or pick shitty games or whatever.

My vote is Gigawing.

Everything should be current, but just to confirm:
KAI - Progear
EmperorIng - Rayforce
chum - Batrider
ChaosPhoenixma - Dragon Blaze
Eno - Dragon Blaze
nZero - Dangun Feveron
CptRansom - Gigawing

If I'm wrong about these, PM me. Sorry for the confusion in getting this rolling, folks.
