Hey all,

just thought I would let you know that I found the greatest shoot 'em up I have ever played in my life, and its a DC title of course!

"Border Down" is the name of the game, it was released in Japan earlier this year, and it looks and plays goddamn awesome!

If you have £35 to spare, get a copy on import. I guarantee you will not regret it. Play Asia have some for sale, check on e-bay and people are paying up to £50 a copy!!

Go on, do yourself & your DC a favour ;D

Not to be off topic but your title i have to say pulstar on neogeo cd emu comes pretty close to that game in grafix and play. Also best shooter on dc for me is wizball on dream frodo ..

Yeah, I played Pulstar on MAME, its not too bad, but it was a TOTAL rip-off of R-Type! :o So no points for originality there.

On NeoGeo, I have to say that Blazing Star was the best, the powerups were awesome! ;D

Still neither come close to Border Down. ;)

PS
It was released 2003 not 2004 as I stated above. :-[
