Currenty on PS3's Raiden 4: Overkill & Caladrius Blaze. Much more complete than 360 counterparts.

Please elaborate. I played the pants off of RIV on 360...would love an excuse to double dip w/ Overkill.

If I'm not mistaken, it's a remix of sorts. It's got added modes and such. Think of it as a Cave release on 360. So many goodies.

Overkill mode is quite superbly done with scoring with two new mission stages. Mid/large ships linger on screen for you to shoot it for extra points.
This adds a new layer of challenge from most waves because of the larger ships blocking your shot path with the "overkill" mechanics.
I refer to more complete as the mode called "additional" is pretty much xbox360's mode.

I'm not sure how I feel about right now. Last night was literally the 3rd or 4th time I have ever played it. I do LOVE the music, especially level 2. The difficulty is odd too. I got to the stage 5 boss and from about the start of stage 5 it felt like a second loop in a cave game. I'm thinking its a keeper though. I've got the blue label roms too but I think I'm going to wait till I 1CC before I pop those in.

having only played it on 360, I'm still not really "familiar" with the game, but the stage 3 cemetery w/ cat-spider boss, is one of my all time favorite levels in any game.....EVER. Such an amaziing atmosphere on that one, and the rest of the game has a great vibe too.

Many Gradius games have last bosses like this. I guess they figure you've done enough to get there.

Recently, I've been having an absolute blast with Iridion II for the Nintendo GameBoy Advance. It's just an amazingly polished handheld shooter. This thing was made to take to the bathroom.

Huh, weird that even Gradius games do it. I figured they did it in Parodius as a joke.

And improving fast. This is definitely a game that rewards practice.
So is it just me, or are the faction symbols oral sex? The opposing force is the V hand spread, with the player side a vagina.
Solid soundtrack, call me weird but I love the crazy names for each level "the phantasm of silver".
