Leave Home on Xbox Live Indie Games. One of the best scrolling shooters I've ever played, it's procedural!

I bought this and can't really get on with it. Having said that i have only played for an hour, but i do not like the way you spread the bullets, not accurate enough and you can't lock them in a certain position. Try retrofit overlord, a superb galag clone for only 80 pts on the indie section . live and local leaderboards too. excellent.

Has anyone tried Varth by capcom (arcade) ?
Also, crocodile world or wani wani world on the megadrive. I had this, and now it's worth loads, got about 15 quid for mine ! It's a bit like snow bros but better.

Aye, it is sad, so I shall add 2 more:

Playstation:
Soul Edge/Calibre (Still think the best sword fighter, very well balanced, and I feel better than Tekken as a game)
Vagrants Story (You've not played this rpg? You missed out! Liked it better than Final Fantasy (n), excellent weapons system)
