Re: Why vertical scrollers are cooler than horizontal ones......

Fair points. But, I prefer the horizontal scrollers. The R-Types, Metal Slugs, etc are all quality shooters, and with the side view, you get to see the characters involved a lot better - the profile of the people rather than just the tops of their heads, the tanks side on with their treads going round rather than just a top view, and so on.
And you can still have a pseudo-3D type effect in horizontal shooters. Robocop, Metal Slug, etc.
