Officially, they are the game I think we can play in December. Unofficially, they are fancy drink coasters.

Oh, right. The games are Otomedius Excellent, R-Type Final, Sin and Punishment, and Xyanide.

Looks like I'll be able to play 3 out of 4 of them. Cool! Looking forward to it.
If anyone hasn't posted any suggestions for the Retro shmups, please do so soon. I'll probably start the voting in the next few days.

Nice. The only one I don't have is Xyanide, and I can probably get my hands on it by then.
@Slackur, sorry about Otomedius, but this whole thing was born out of Duke.Togo requesting that specific game for a playthrough. By all means feel free to skip it.

LOL Riots! Anger! Pointy things in your general direction! Thanks for the kindness, though no need to apologize. We're all here to have fun, and while my fun is obviously infinitely superior to your fun, games are games. I'll probably play when my kids aren't around to ask why those cartoon ladies are carrying water balloons.
I'll keep an eye out for another copy of Xyanide for anyone else wanting to join in.

Glad you brought this up. I have been thinking about how we can help each other find playthrough titles and created this thread:

Yer cool. I'll try to keep an eye on that thread.
FWIW, I just tried Xyanide on my 360 and confirmed it will not work, so an original Xbox will be required. Before anyone asks.
Not that I've been impressed with anything running on the 360's original Xbox emulation. Except maybe Doom 3. I seem to remember that running much better.
I digress.

Also of important note; if you look for Xyanide to purchase online, you may see a listing for a PS2, PC, and PSP version. It isn't always listed as such (even on the cover) but these are actually the sequel, Xyanide Resurrection. The PS2 and PSP versions are imports (obviously not an issue for PSP players.) The PC version is indeed super cheap, but for a reason; I still can't get the silly thing to run, and I'm pretty sure the default installer has malware.
I bring this up in case someone was thinking a PS2 version would be more accessible than the Xbox game.
I popped in Otomedius, and it's just as I remembered.
Then I popped in Xyanide and it was just as I remembered.
That intro is just so, so cool to me.

So the only version for our playthough is the XBOX one, correct? The PS2, PC, and PSP titles are not the same game as the XBOX title?

I haven't played Otomedius yet, hence my request. It's a Konami shooter, so I find it difficult to think it will be bad. A little sad Gradius V didn't make the cut, but a nice list. I'll be in for 2 for sure, and maybe 3. It depends if I want to drag the Xbox back out.

Any reason to pull out the Duke and try to wrap your hands around that beast is a good reason, right?
I noticed how bad that sounds as I typed it, but screw it, I'm overdue for some comical banter this week.

From what I played of Otomedius it seemed a fairly accurate remake of Gradius, I would be surprised if it's all that bad.
