There's Under Defeat which has the goofy perspective that makes it annoying to play, and there's the worst Raiden game, and I think that's it.
Strania is environmental hazard heaven. The dlc Side Vower (basically an entirely new game of the same length as the original) is better designed...if you can get past the worst stage 1 boss in the history of shmups.
Eschatos and Ginga Force are worth mention due to their fusion of old and newschool design fundamentals.

Instead I am stuck in the America's where women rule with an iron crotch, and a man could get arrested for sitting behind a computer too long.
Mushi HD, DOJ, and Ketsui were never released on the 360, dunno what you guys are talking about.
Gonna go with DDP Die Fuck Cats for its Arrange A mode and Futari for its Original mode.
Then Akai Katana for its every mode.
Then SDOJ for its 1.5 mode.
Then all the other stuff that they were smart enough to make region free.

Everybody knows that's not a real thing. Jeez man, really. For serious.
I hear that if you go in the bathroom, turn off the lights, and say "NTSC-J XBox 360" three times, and then turn on the light....one appears behind you!

Hell nah. AK is beast. And I love Arcade-mode, it's got the best mechanics, and it's presented in 4;3 - no ugly ass black-bars that those HD consoles love so much.
