Blazing Star/Pulstar Comparison.

[Laserblast]

Just a short opinion as I have FINALLY been able to get my hands on both of these and compare the two myself. They are both horizontal scrolling shooters, yes. But they play very differently. Pulstar plays like R-Type. Blazing Star plays like a Lightning Force/Thunder Force or Gate of Thunder. Both very different, but excellent and both worth having. <IMG SRC="smilies/tickled.gif" border="0">

I don't own both yet so I can't give a definitive answer yet. I gotta say that I love that sig though. <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

Nice sig yourself man. <IMG SRC="smilies/glee.gif" border="0"> Set aside a few hours for when the postal or U.P.S. truck pulls up with your Blazing Star, you won't want to do any thing else but play for HOURS.............. <IMG SRC="smilies/tickled.gif" border="0">

Well,

I still like pulstar more then blazing stars. I still can not get over the giant whinning space baby as an end boss.

Seems to me that we have a comparison between R-type and Gradius...LOL
I like both games

Both are good games but for me pulstar is better because blazing star it's to easy to finish and pulstar is like r-type games hard as hell to finish it, that's why is one of my favorite turbo grafix 16 games <IMG SRC="smilies/glee.gif" border="0">

El Davarish and Big Bruno, I do think Pulstar is the more complex game of the two. I can get a little further each time in Blazing Star consistently. But Pulstar can repeatedly kill you on levels you thought you mastered. Just one screw up............. <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0"> ........is all it takes. <IMG SRC="smilies/shame.gif" border="0">
Edit:Oh I'm sorry now it's Maneki-Neko not Davarish?
