PM sent. I haven't played it myself, but from the videos I've seen it looks more like Doujinwing. I know the PS2 port lacks Tate as well. I'd still like to give it a try though.

It's alright. I loved the first 2 Giga Wing games, especially the scoring system in the series.

At first I hated Giga Wing Gen. The options didn't allow me to tate, probably because its a wide vert shooter if that makes sense, the graphics are really...odd. I have no clue why the devs would want the game to look the way it does. I found myself losing track of my ship along with the bullets coming at me at times :lolz:

After playing it for a while, I got past all of those little things and like it a lot. Not as much as the first, but it's still good in my opinion. The stage variety is nice too. It is Giga Wing after all. I don't play it as often as other shooters on my PS2, but its nice to have I guess.

The arcade game can be fun. The PS2 version is a terrible port. Arcade=60fps PS2=30fps, and this cause some bullet patterns to be impossible to dodge. Throw the ps2 port in the garbage where it belongs.

I forgot to mention that. The frame rate is shit.

I'd say its a fun game. Lacking tate really hurts the PS2, but the Type X is sweet!
