SNES shooters were too hard for me. I got R Type 3 with my SNES. Maybe beat 2 levels. Didn’t have the heart to tell my grandmother it was a waste of $40 because I sucked. Badly.
So I’m realizing that I had forgotten how clunky GTA controls can be and 4 has some long ass missions and drives. I’m probably just a shade past half done, but I’m kinda finding it boring?
Goat Simulator has been hilarious. And we’ve been poking that Marvel Cosmic whatever beat em up. I bought the remastered Ghostbusters game for a couple bucks. Kids have liked ghostbusters.

Naw R-Type 3 was just ridiculous. The first level wasn't bad, pretty standard. Then it just puts the pedal to the medal. Level 2 is super hard but a kid with tenacity could get through it eventually due to the infinite continues and continuing from checkpoints. Good luck getting much further though. Level 4 is where it reaches full ludicrous, with molten metal beams everywhere and having to hide in specific spots to be safe. Level 5 is a boss rush, level 6 is another ludicrous level, and then the final boss is like this ten minute long fight that actually gave me severe hand cramps when I tried to do it later on emulator. Yeah, I had to go back later with save states, don't think I was able to beat the game as a kid. Maybe I did once. I think level 4 was my graveyard.
I used Cyclone Force, the blue one, and I think that was the best. Maybe it wasn't and I was nerfing myself...
Space Megaforce (SNES) and Blazing Lazers (TG16) are the two best shooters I ever played, with probably Axelay in third. They're all much easier than Gradius or R-Type. I think I definitely prefer vertical shooters over horizontal.

Man, I had R-Type on the Master System. Jesus that was maybe 35 years ago. There used to be an arcade cabinet back then as well. Never played any of the others, but I loved it as a kid.

Its a good game. If you like it, check out Ys: Oath in Felghana too. It released around the same time and plays similar.

Darius Twin was great. UN Squadron isn’t space but was fun, and difficult. Worth playing both of them.
If you have MAME, Giga Wing is fantastic. Bullet hell space shooter where a big part of the game is reflecting bullets back at the enemy with a special ability. Really a fun game. Ikaruga was another cool one where you absorb bullets based on their color and your shield.

Just finished playing Fallout New Vegas with the Viva New Vegas modlist. I have not played this since my original playthrough when it came out 16 years ago and I'd never played any of the DLC's. I didn't care for the movie drive in one nor the casino one (basically where you spend hours of time acquiring gear only for the game to take it from you), but the other ones were well done. Pretty crazy to think when this came out I lived in the Carolinas and this time I see places I used to drive through twice a day for work.
Went Legion this time since I did NCR before. Maybe once in the near future I'll do a Mr. House playthrough.
Amazing time, now I need to let this sink in and think about what to start next.
Edit: Link for Wabajack/Viva New Vegas if anyone wants to try I had all 150 mods running on 7800X3D/7900XTX 64GB 4K w/ no issue except for the lonesome road dlc , it kept bogging down.

I really enjoy the 2d Y's like origin, also there is Y's: Ark of Nephistan(sp?) along with oath that was recommended. Couldn't get into the 3d ones for some reason, but I haven't tried the last 2. Y's Origin is definitely my favorite out of the series.
I think I enjoyed y's 1 and 2 as well but it's been a while and can't remember much about that, they are vastly different then the others. Pretty outdated at this point too.
