I think you mean Soul Calibur (1) ;)

I'll add:
Virtua Tennis 2
Sambe de Amigo
Power Stone
Power Stone 2

'Beats of Rage' is free and worth a look too (do a google search for it).

I don't have any yet (tho I do love them)...I'll get some when my cab is working again.

I think I read that a few of the good DC shmups have been released on xbox too recently...(Castle of Shikigami 2 is one, fwiw)

IKARUGA
Border Down
Shikigami No Shiro 2

-Goz

I can append a few more nonmame shmups to the list:

Trizeal
Choas Field

Although I play a ton of SHMUPS, I really only enjoy Ikaruga and Shikigami No Shiro 2 out of the titles above.  I've always wanted to get border down 2, but haven't yet.  I prefer ps2 and MAME for my shmupping needs.

Treasure shooter? C'mon! That's a must-have.

Also, it doesn't work with a VGA converter.

Silent Scope does not use a lightgun on DC, so I gotta shoot this suggestion down.


Anyway, ones yet to be mentioned...
