Axelay on the Snes was always one of my favs. I have Ikaruga and Rez on the DC, and they are both awesome, especially Rez. Smash TV on the SNES was a great game too, nice to see that it gets a mention in the "honourable mentions" bit. :)
What no Starfox...? And what about Contra on the SNES...??
One of my mates has been telling me how good Rez is. Ill look into that.... As for Contra [Probotector for all you non-import peeps], its criminal that that games isnt in.
And it's called Border Down - got released in Japan last year but was featured on the Bint Berlin's show at the w/e so I'm presuming it's getting a UK release.
Loads more games there that I'd forgotten about (surprise!). Salamander was awesome - loved Nemesis too.
As for Violet Berlin I'd go for 'old hag with a speech defect and a criminally shit knowledge of videogames' - I still watch her show as it shows stuff - but she makes me cringe especially wwith some of the shite she spouts.
So a couple of our younger 'lads' (Bungers and Bhell13) like Violet Berlin. What was that you were saying about geronophiliacs Merg? :)
I don't think I saw the follow up to Nemesis - will have to check that out.
I don't like the fact the Berlin Bint got videogame jobs purely because she was a woman - a bloke who knew as little about games as her wouldn't get the same jobs she's had. Me jealous? Of course! But it's still true.
I wish they'd bring Bits back - that was very good. Has anybody seen the dire Gamerzville on Sky 1? Worst vg show evar!
Isn't it about time we had more vg TV? Games have been trouncing the film's industry's arse for years now yet we still have way more TV dedicated to films than we do vg. Aiming at an audience older than 7 would be nice too. After all it is we older gamers who are spending the most wedge on games - I'll be buying 2 new games within the next fortnight.
Others that must deserve a mention include... Xenon II Super Parodius (SNES) and Assault Suits Valken (Super Famicom), which I think was Cybernator over here, bhell will confirm that one, I'm sure! ;)

Yep, that's it.. "Super Probotector"! Mode 7 sand monster levels anyone..? Those were the days...
What about bloody Turrican? Best platforming shootemup on any platform - evar!
Talking of Ikaruga (ish) - there's a new DC game coming out and it's another shooter. More later if I can find info.

I find Violet Berlin strangely attractive...
yeah, me too.
wow good gaming comment, fella.
but i disagree with your comment on the delectable Miss Berlin. :)
Nice work Merg..
SWIV on there, which was Silkworm IV wasn't it...?

I've played Gradius III - I remember the flaming lions in the screenshots. It was impossible though - I didn't get much past that bit.
The bloke in Thumb Bandits? Was that Iain Lee? We've just been trying to remember the game show he was on.
And there's a recentish series of Gamepad on Bravo - that wouldn't be a bad show if they got someone decent on. Shame about Bits.
