Hey I never owned any of the games where you move side to side well killing enemies. Got 2 bucks left and am wondering which to buy? Ones I'm considering are: -Inkvaders -Zombieville -Trigger Happy Christmas Any others I should know about before purchasing? Thanks!
Well I havent heard of many others that can match up to them. I'd wait for someone elses opinions though.
I have Zombieville, Inkvaders, and Mummy's Revenge (or Return, can't remember). I like Inkvaders the most, it's the most complete game imo. I'd say Zombieville and Mummy's Revenge are about equal for me, just depends whether I feel like shooting mummies or zombies
I wouldn't really consider them third person shooters... I think shmup is actually closer. Sidescrolling shmup is what I term them. I think of 3rd person shooters more as Terminator Salvation or BIA.
A third person shooter is Resident Evil 4. Those three listed are side scrolling shooters. Anyway the best one on your list is Zombieville. Though OMG Pirates is better than Zombieville.
He's asking for shootem ups silly! But there are a lot of beatem up sidescrollers, a lot of them are really good.
i have all of those and inkvaders is definetly the best, but idk if this counts, but omg pirates is a lot better than those 3 but it uses a sword so im not sure it counts but i think it is worth a look
but they arent SHMUPS... shmup would be something like Galaga or Gradius... check out Space Deadbeel, Sentry Alpha or HotField for examples of what im talking about..
Technically they're side scrolling shooters, but they're definitely not SHMUPS, which is what the term usually refers to... and what I thought the TC was after, reading the topic title. This stuff is closer to the likes of Streets of Rage n' all that.
Trigger Happy Xmas is essentially a less deep reskin of Inkvaders, so if you want an xmas skin for a lower price get that. However I feel like Zombieville is the best
the same people that made zombieville made omg pirates and omg pirates is a way better game, they added a story and tons of other things that zombieville needed.... if anyone likes gradius/rtype verticle shooters i recommend the best game on the system Tyrian, its a old pc game and it was the best side scroller i have ever played...i think its only a buck has 3 campaigns that can be played in either story or arcade mode, story mode allows you to buy upgrades/new ships etc... and lets you choose different paths per level... theres 9-10 levels total on each campign... alot of people dont know the game really, just check it out if you havent...
