i hear ya. when I see them I want to play them and would be really temped by this one but the last couple of shooters like this that I thought i was gonna be good at. I wasn't... haha.

The last shooters I recall actually being good at is going all the way back to the Genesis with Thunder Force 1 and 2, R-Type, and well, just about anything that was on that console seeing as how space shooters were like 20% of their overall library.
