In my third post, I agreed and said I was wrong in my initial post and editted it. Drop it. I was wrong, you're right. I should have included proper terminology to begin with. But, the terminology in this case isn't "bastardized" but was the original creator's intent. As for not explaining...

PCB = Perfect Cherry Blossom If it has another definition in the world of shmups, then I'm not familiar with that. And since this was originally a Touhou topic, I used it unconciously. And I've already pointed out (several times) that I am not familiar with shmups and that I only downloaded these ga...

it makes mention that it can be called that I see no mention in that piece that suggests "curtain shooter' is acceptable as it acknowledges that is a broken translation. I suppose you missed the part in the article that said "the genre is occassionally known as..." I'm not the first ...

Haha, same here. I use to call myself the Touhou's #1 Worst Player. Even made a siggy for it: http://mcloz.net/images/touhou3.jpg However, I've slowly worked my way up from being bad at Easy to 1ccing it and moving on to Normal. It just takes a lot of practice, I guess. Personally, I still find play...

I have always felt that no matter what the policies of the rest of the forum, a Serious Topics section needs its own rules. Let's start with the obvious: I love debating. I may not know much about law but ethical opinions and my own morals sway me to always jump into a conversation. However, there a...

*wipes a tear away from her eye* Hanyou-ni, you make me proud. It's been a long time since I've seen someone that could properly argue. I'm going to look forward to picking through that, but I want to read through it twice more to be sure I'm not missing your finer points, but I have a headache to t...

Well, actually, I was kinda mocking the starter sentences of the games. http://intothelabyrinth.net/images/shooter.jpg You are right. It is more commonly known as such but even according to this article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danmaku - it makes mention that it can be called that. Still - "...

[youtube]http://youtube.com/watch?v=3pTXMmK2RaM[/youtube] Let's start out with what is Danmaku. It is "Curtain fire shooter" / "bullet hell shooter" or a shooting game. What is Touhou. Well, in the context of this thread it is a series of Danmaku games created by ZUN and publishe...

Haha, I think I tried to tell you about this game before on the other forums, but I can't really remember. I think you would really be able to get into them. Our tastes really ran parallel from what I recall. However, before you make any special trips to game stores, try calling them first. And then...

The "fighting" one is Immaterial and Missing Power and is really the outcase of the series. The ones I adore are the danmaku - curtain fire shooters. http://www16.big.or.jp/~zun/html/game.html - Please, feel free to download any of these demos to try the games out. Also, in the video, if y...

I'm such a fuggin' Touhou whore *sigh*... even if this forum is about Etrian Odyssey...

How many floors are there going to be? For some reason I heard 100 floors somewhere but I doubt this is the case. Could someone please shed light on this or direct me to where it already has? I think I read 30 somewhere myself, but if one of the others don't post the answer I will scavange it out a...

I've seen several guest users on the board lately, and when seeing what they are doing, most (if not all) are viewing the EOII board. Just to let you know of the little bit of traffic on the boards. =F Already noted. You really don't have to point out such things since both me and Archaic (all my w...
