Is it, dare I say, the greatest STG of all time?

Radiant Silvergun is. 1941 is a close second. Then Gradius III.

It's the best Gradius game at least.

>>3837287
If you don't mind the slowdowns.

Arcade Gradius III on MAME is the shit you should want.

>>3837287

Have you ever heard of Thunder Force IV?

/closed

>>3837287
i own it and love it! a classic

>>3837529
But arcade gradius III has even more slowdowns

Slowdowns were [spolier] part of the game [/spoiler]

>>3838064
It's not just slowdowns that it's missing.

I like this game a lot. The arcade version might be better, although that 3D section is garbage.
