SignosisX Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 For many years i've been a fan of shmups (sometimes referred to as Shoot'em'ups or STG's) and some of my favourite Platinum Trophies I've earned have been from the genre. If your looking for some of the best shumps on the PS4 you need to buy all the M2 ShotTrigger games, they are among the best on any console and are easy Plats. Battle Garegga, ESP RaDe, Sorcer Striker (MAHOU DAISAKUSEN), Dangun Feveron, Ketsui Deathtiny and the recent Aleste Collection (which I've just finished a guide and menu translation for, just waiting for a review). Ghost Blade HD was a slightly more tricky Plat but still very obtainable once you get used to the game, which I really enjoyed too. Hard as nails shmups that I doubt I'll get 100% on but highly recommend are Ikaruga, R-Type Dimensions and Sine Mora. NeoGeo had three absolute classics that are available on the ACA Arcade Archive range (easy 100%), Aero Fighters 2, Blazing Star and Pulstar. Have I missed any great shumps you would recommend? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandedBerserk Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 (edited) Dariusburst and Jamestown are my two personal favorites. Stardust galaxy warriors is probably the most underrated one but still great. Edited January 29, 2021 by BrandedBerserk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dariusburst looks great, it's always quite expensive though so I'm waiting for a sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SignosisX Posted January 31, 2021 Author Share Posted January 31, 2021 Love Raiden IV and V. Got Caladrius Blaze on Switch really good. Fast Striker sometimes goes on sale so I might pick that up next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiesbadenIIX Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 After playing Sky Force Reloaded, I have zero desire to play any other shoot-em-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klart Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Capcom has just announced an Arcade Cabinet thingy which includes Giga Wing and other shooters. Already out on Switch but should come this year to PS4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
