Join me for a variety stream featuring even more PS2 shmups. Unlike last night's stream where we focused on vertical (specifically, TATE'd) shmups, tonight we will be focusing on PS2 shooters that use a YOKO (aka, horizontal) screen setup. Some of these will still be vertical scrollers, but they will take up the entire horizontal/non-rotated space. Just like last night, we are playing on real hardware here, with a CRT setup and a Hori RAP 2 arcade stick. Well, for some of it--a couple of these games don't particularly like the stick, so we'll have to swap back to a standard Dual Shock 2 for those.

0:29:30 - Gradius III
1:05:53 - Gradius IV
