Video game/Scrolling shooters

Typically set in deep space, you're given three craft, numerous power ups and the odds of winning somewhere in the region of a 1,000,000 to 1.

But not always though, the amazing R-Type certainly sticks to this well refined design, but then there are such quirky and unmissable treats as [Rabio Lepus Special]? - a side on shooter featuring the worlds most fearsome rabbit. And how about leading a squad of soldiers into battle in [Cannon Fodder]? or buying in the biggest and meanest weaponry with [UN Squadron]? or really blowing your opponent to bits in a friendly bout of [Return Fire]?, the WWII-lite sim.
