I really liked raptor too, because you got money and could buy things, I love that in games.

I''d have to say R-Type. Raptor was cool, but R-Type was just done on such a lovely scale. Don''t know about ikaruga, never heard of it. LED (Laser Enhanced Destruction) was pretty funky as well... no idea if that ever made it to the PC though... played it back in the good old days on my Spectrum 48k.
Last thing to go through a tortoise''s mind before it hits the ground at 40mph? "D3DXVec3Add (Tortoise.Pos, Tortoise.Delta, Tortoise.OldPos"

Good shmups that haven''t been mentioned yet:
Giga Wing 2 (Movies of it in action)
Blazing Star (Bonus! Be not panic!)
Pulstar
Viewpoint (insanely hard Zaxxon-type shmup)
UN Squadron (the SNES version had a nifty ship customization mode where you bought powerups with money you made during the level)
Thunder Force 5
19XX
Strikers 1945
Zero Gunner 1 & 2 (very cool helicopter shmup, but very hard to find)
Raiden 2
Radiant Silvergun (because the shmup police would kick my ass if I didn''t mention it)
DoDonPachi Dai-Ou-Jou (Movies of it in action)
I could go on for hours. Ikaruga is pretty dang good, but it does have its flaws. Play time and lack of variety for starters.

rRootage is one of the "purest" and most enjoyable shooters I''ve played. Simple graphics and special effects, and nothing but boss battles, but its simplicity and style make it a real fun game to play.
