I'm mainly a manic shooter fan, playing almost only vert and manic shooters. I'm currently on Mars Matrix, Gigawing, Dodonpachi etc etc. So, I'm far from playing well horizontal shooters and it's been a so big while I haven't played one of them that I really lost the feeling for this type of game, being too used to hyper-fast action and over-crowded screen.
Sooo, I bought Super R-Type on SFC, which is -admittedly- not the best in the series, but anyway, I gave it a try and I really suck ass at it. This game's hard as hell, it's so slow I'm really not used to it. I almost 1cced R Type Final but this one's far more hard.
Believing I just sucked at this one, I then played Darius Gaiden, Gradius Gaiden or Thunderforce V and... same noting.
I guess I lack practice but damn, horizontal shooters are so different, I didn't notice the gap was so big...
