Compile shooters

It's Rayxanber.

And Curse is fairly easy until the 5th (last level, where the rules of the game change and it sets you way back when you die, unlike the previous 4 levels where it does not set you back at all.

Yea its that last level that can really own your ass. The one before it can be a real pain too when they throw everything they can at you at certain points,warheads,robots,ships,ect ect.

Plus the game only moves at 30fps (this was before they invented Blast Processing™) so it seems a bit choppy when things are moving fast.

[Michael Helgeson]

Thats right,Genesis really sucked hardcore until they invented Blast Processing. From then on everything went smooth at  Sonic speed.

[Joe Redifer]

It's true.  Pixar renders all of their movies on a single Genesis using Blast Processing™ and it usually only takes 10 or 15 minutes to output the entire movie.

[Michael Helgeson]

Oh yea,for serious. I mean,Toy Story the game proved that. I heard it took them even less time to make it with Blast Processing,like 7 mins. They like showed a Genesis dev kit a few pics of the finished movie and it made the game itself like god made the earth,but faster,in 7 mins. If only god had Blast Processing.

I also heard the Snes version took months longer because they had to port the superior Genesis version over onto a system obviously lacking the ability to do Blast Processing and had to program it all themselves. So they held the Genesis release up to let the other catch up. I don't like sports but I also heard football is like 90 times faster on Genesis due to Blast Processing,and if even a lick of that is true then Blast Processing is God Like. I even hear the football moves faster.

Too bad they couldn't have invented Blast Processing on the Amiga along with a controller with at least 3 buttons.

It's Rayxanber.

I specifically recall it pronounced as "Wayzambuuh!" at the title screen.

[Joe Redifer]

No.  I uploaded an MP3 somewhere and though it does sound like a group of excited retards, it's definitely an N.   

[Keranu]

I thought it was Rasin Bar?

If Intel added Blast Processing to their processors, they MIGHT just be able to match the Genesis.

After all, the Genesis was fully capable of running Virtua Fighter 3.

After reading all these posts im not sure if this is on topic or off, but I just wanted to throw out there that I think Soldier Blade is one of the best shooters for the TG and actually of all time. I am not sure what justifies a compile shooter (as this is the first time I have heard this term used) but this seems like its closed based on what everyone else is saying. O:)

[Kitsunexus]

Compile shooter = shooter developed by Compile (ie: Zanac, Space Megaforce, etc...)


If this was about Compile SERIES though, I'd say Puyo Puyo, hands down.

There are five or six Duo verts that I like even more, but Soldier Blade is definitely a great shooter. 

As far as Compile in general goes, I'd take the ACD version of Madou Monogatari I over any of these other games.

Does R-Type for the Sega Master System count?  That's a Compile game (released by Nintendo in the arcades and developed by Irem).
