What's Up With Bullet Hell?

hypernova:

The irony is that bullet hell is actually heaven!

So I read this thread and looked at some of the other shump stuff and decided I'd really give'em a go.  I always make sure I have some shooters on my cab but was never a huge fan.  Dodonpachi just flipped my ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---.  I ended up playing for like an hour.  Now I've gotta get some more bullet hell games because I think I'm becoming a convert.  I haven't had that much fun and been so simultaneously stressed out in a while.  Awesome stuff.  I like the bullet hells a lot more than the classic 80s style shooters.

Yeah... I've added DoDonPachi, and several others because of the comments on this thread.  My son and I are really enjoying them!  ...the pattern flying thing is a lot of fun. :)

Played Xevious the other day, and WOW what difference!  I felt like I could have eaten a sandwich while playing... still fun, though, since I've got sooooooo many memories of playing it with my dad as a kid.

if you haven't yet add ESP Ra.De. and Guwange to the list to try.... They are epic.

I experienced this during the recent Metrocross comp. Play that, then go back to Donkey Kong. But guess which one I play more. Ditto Xevious, relative to 90s shooters, although the most-played shooter here is 1943.
