Perspective is exactly the reason why it isn't a shmup. Once you change the axis of movement, the entire style of gameplay shifts.Quote:

JAMMA. No contest.
Where do you guys buy your JAMMA shmups from?
By and large, all other shmups feature control of a singular ship/person/what have you in a locked playing field on a predetermined course. Space Harrier fits in that, whereas Quake and Time Crisis (which also requires extra peripherals and doesn't give direct control of movement) don't.Quote:

It's a 3D shmup, I think.
guys, seriously, stop being so retarded. i can't believe people on this board are actually arguing other wise.
like really, what's next? Gran Turismo fits in the casino genre?
I'd say the DC, but I believe that I'll go with the PS2 next year.
