I don't know what it is, but this man's voice and mannerisms as well as his quiet tone; It's poetic.

@AltairEgo1 ha ha, thanks mate, the game reviewer character in this review has become somewhat of a bizarre masked clown, if you see my latest one.

"There's all sorts of crap flying around the screen at you...skulls, spaceships, floating turds...well, maybe not the turds, but all sorts of caped crusaders and helmeted baddies, trying to generally fuck you up."

-greatest spoken thought on youtube. Well done, sir.

@royalguard56 Thanks dude! I never thought I would be quoted, except to show my technical ignorance!

Can't keep away from these class looking shooters. The MD/SAT' has some of the best shmups of any system in my view. But assessing and learning more about the PCE's tour de force of minty shmup goodness. I may have to revise my opinions somewhat Matt, some of these titles gameplays look stunning and can't wait until i can to pickup an Duo down the line. No suprise now is it mate, i'm "hooked on a feelin' '". These babies rock!.."pure gold" as you say sir. :)

@MENDEZ1628 Yeah the PCE games have a totally different feel to the other systems, I used to prefer the HuCard games, and in most cases they were more original than the later CD ROM games, but nowadays I prefer the CD ROM games!

Wait a minute, Soldier Blade just 7 on SOUND? No way, it has IMHO one of the best OST ever and great FX sound? Anyway, great video mate!, Long live to the PC-Engine!

I remember pining for these games when I would see them covered in game magazines when I was a teen. Then eBay and more disposable income came along and I acquired most. Now, while I still love them, I may have to let them go due to lack of room and need for money. : (

Nice games, but for me the best shooter on PC-Engine is PARODIUS! It comes so close to the arcade-version, unbelievable what's in the PC-Engine. And anyway PARODIUS is the best shoot-em-up of all times!

@MENDEZ1628 It's a whopping system mat!!
