My favourite doujin game so far has been Genetos but I believe doujin refers only to the fan-made games, not the full commercial releases. My favourite bullet curtain game? Aside from doujin ones, I'm not sure I've actually played any.

I have played a little DoDonPachi on the Saturn and Ikaruga on GameCube (if that counts). I have Deathsmiles on the 360 which I bought when HMV had a funny turn and were selling the limited edition for under £3.<br /><br />It's definitely something I need to pay more attention to. What's your favourite 'bullet curtain' game?Marchttp://www.gameandwrite.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455082771543433548.post-89353099805538090072011-10-26T21:16:42.919+01:002011-10-26T21:16:42.919+01:00Hi Edward :) It was actually Blue Wish Resurrectio...Hi Edward :) It was actually Blue Wish Resurrection Plus that I heard about first but I like to cover a series in chronological order so I hunted down the original first. I will be covering the other two at some point to see what the differences are :)RetroKingSimonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05609689348601442117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455082771543433548.post-82558887771560832882011-10-26T20:50:01.224+01:002011-10-26T20:50:01.224+01:00Nice!

Will you be covering Ressurrection as well?Edwardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17491361099947592597noreply@blogger.com
