There are many shmups out there that I can't properly categorize because it lacks the option. I'm not sure how the database is set up, but typically adding such a feature is almost effortless. If you find it in your heart to add this one for me, I'd thank you. :)

I'd second the addition of a shooter category.

We have FPS - First Person Shooter.

None of them are first person, though. They are completely unlike Doom, Quake, Hexen, Soldier of Fortune, (insert every other "I can only see my gun and I shoot things" game). Look at some of these videos. SHMUP is really a different genre.
Guardian Legend (NES)Gradius 3 (SNES)Radiant Silvergun (Sega Saturn)Sin & Punishment (N64)Panzer Dragoon II (Sega Saturn)I might change the genre to Shooter then, a lot of people are confused by the FPS abbreviation anyway.

eah.. It could mean Frames Per Second... not First Person Shooter :P

Replying to #6
and RPG could mean Rocket Propelled Grenade, but people don't get mixed up over that one, do they? :P

It's all in the context, I'm quite certain people won't be thinking "Hmm, I don't know any games with the genre 'Frames Per Second'
Changing to "shooter" or "FPS/Shooter" or adding a separate "shooter" would be just fine.I'm just trying to help out with the Saturn stuff since I'm a bigger Sega junkie than a Sony one and I love my Saturn.

Galaga is a 'shooter' (or shoot-em-up). That's why the First Person Shooters are seperated in the first place.
