people have beeing hyping Omega Fighter here for the last couple of months. In the past different people had hyped the game before, but usually it was an effort of a single person that usually would go unnoticed.

But now a lot of people hyped the game at the same time and it gaines attention. It will be like Soldier Blade was on this forum around 2001.

I don't know if it's always possible to vote, but I propose DoDonPachi, Gunbird 2 and Battle Garegga for the famous manic week.

IMO Giga Wing would be about the best choice available, all things considered.

Not really revenge. More like, "You thought that was bad? TRY THIS!".

More like, let's vote Giga Wing so that for at least one week we can play a game I don't hate.
Anyway, you think we'd do any better in DDP? Don't make me laugh.

I would like for the voting committee to decide (and tell us) exactly what "Manic" means. By definition, the entire genre is supposed to be manic.... at least by the 2nd or 3rd stage.

I'm just saying some people don't like the speed of it. Also, it has a higher score potential than the normal ships. Disallowing it might make more people vote for the game. It'd obviously be better if anything goes for it if it was chosen though. ; )

If I never play that evil, devil spawn, life suckingly addictive, not see anything on screen, fuck me it's 2 in the morning, bastard hard, son of a bitch Battle Garegga again it will be too soon. Please please please don't make me get addicted to this again.

Play something else; DDP, Batsugun, Dangun, ESP... anything, just not Garegga. I hate it because I love it too much.

Cheers

I'm thinking I need to play more of this Dangun Feveron everyone seems to enjoy =) I only played it once, just to try it out... which... isn't even close to enough to know if I like the game or not.
