Can anyone inform me exactly why people think this game is any good? I imported it back in 1999 and was pretty disappointed it, Tyrian is a far better game and was released 4 years before. This has like barely an hour of content and Tyrian has over 100.

This is how we know you weren't even alive in 1999

Bullshit. I love Tyrian but this is some bullshit. Yes I've had the carrot ship with banana cannon. Have some Tyrian OST (Alexander Brandon)

It's got a sick ass plot, fancy boss fights (Xiga especially) and if you actually memorize the game and start doing scoring strats you feel like a badass.

Not a traditional shmup, not even a traditional euroshmup so the Tyrian comparison is ass. It was always very hit or miss.

RSG is shmup kino. Survival players tend to prefer it over Ikaruga, although I think Ikaruga also can be really fun for survival, especially in hard mode.

Based fucking retard.
Anyway RSG is fun because of the tension and release between stages and boss fights. The chaining during the stages requires precise, strategic gameplay and has a high punishment for dying, but then you reap the benefits of that chaining when it comes time to fight the bosses. With most bosses, you don't have to worry about breaking your chain so dying isn't that big of a deal. The bosses are simply a joy to fight and you can just let loose.
