What are the shmups to own on Xbox 360?

[emphatic]

I just got my hands on Konami's own port of Time Pilot today and MAN IS IT AWESOME. I can't stop playing. The only thing that was missing was TATE, especially since they added such nice high res graphics along with the original ones.

I would be tempted if this had TATE. That's a shame it doesn't.

This was inspired by Lawfer's nice thread here.

Here are all the forced-scrolling shmups for sale for a non-Japanese Xbox 360:

This is not really meant for hardcore shmup fans, but for more lighter gamers. I'm posting it here in case any of you find it useful for getting your non-shmup friends into playing them more, and wanted to use the list as a starting point. I'm focusing on the Xbox 360 as it's the console for which I develop and have the most interest. I plan to keep it updated fairly well.

Even with out TATE this is a great game to have. Simple, fun, unique design and very nostalgic.

When I picked up Shooting Love 200X it looked awesome and maybe its just me (probably is) but after playing it, I'm more confused now then I was before I played the game

I'd probably love it more if I knew what the hell I was selecting before I played. Does anyone have any screen shots of what the menu says in english. Or can someone please translate it?

[Lawfer]

What are you talking about? There is nothing to translate, even the option screen is all in english lol.

[Fuzzypants]

i knew I wasnt going that crazy..the main menu for shooting love is in english I was referring to once you select game play that is all in japanese

[Lawfer]

That's it? Just scroll all the way down and choose either Trizael or Exzael, there is basically two games in Shooting Live 20XX and those are the ones. Both were released on the PS2.

[asr10user]

This is a good list. Could you please put *RF next to any region free titles?

There are only 2, so that's kind of excessive. Mushihimesama Futari and the stanard edition of ESPGaluda II.

There are 4 games in Shooting Love 200X: Trizeal Remix, -0, Exzeal and Shmups Skills Test.

Both were released on the PS2.

No, both were not released on the PS2. Only Trizeal was ported to the PS2 (in Shooting Love Trizeal).

Fuzzpants, the first Option at the mode select screen is standard Shmups Skills Test, the one right below it is the 4-player variant. If you want to just practice one of the tests that you've already played, they'll become available below. I believe that Exzeal is listed below the various one-shot SSTs (the stages will become available to play indivudally as you clear them), followed by Trizeal Remix and then -0.
