Since Starfox is the only one in the picture that isn&#8217;t a 2D shmup, if we were to replace its Arwing fighter with the R-Gray1 from Layer Section\/Raystorm, my vote would probably be for that one. But since it&#8217;s not there, I&#8217;d probably vote for the Ikaruga. Even though I don&#8217;t care for the game as much as others, the design is just so simultaneously elegant and deadly.
