I assume you're the same dude that posted on the shmups forum. IMHO, you really shouldn't be including games like Chaos Engine, Zombies Ate My Neighbors, or Alien Breed, as these are all 'Gauntlet-type' labyrinth games as opposed to straight top down run 'n' guns.

Anyway, another one would be Time Soldiers (arcade and SMS).

One that I noticed you forgot was Commando for the NES. You already have in for Arcade so you probably just missed it.

How about these?

Playstation:
Loaded
Machine Hunter
Re-loaded

They are all more Gauntlet-like as it290 described. Don't know if that matters.

Yes! And it was also released on the sega genesis! I love the hugging wall feature, later found in Metal Gear Solid for PS1. I think this title is actually harder to find then what it is listed in the database. I have a copy, and I have only seen 1 or 2 in the wild in my 7-10 years searching. Very great run & gun, two player split screen, not found much on older systems. A must for fans of the genre or people who own a Mega Drive / Genesis! :D
