Alright, so everything's planned out, the design, the gameplay, the enemies, blah blah blah, but I'm stuck on a name.

I wanted something that stood out, was fairly simple, and could be abbreviated easily, and with the story, this concept fits well as a title, but actually can be said a different way.

Burst Transmission
or
Data Burst

They both mean the same thing, and both get the point across. They're simple, and relevant to the game.

Oh, and it's an Action Shooter/Beat-Em-Up/Side-Scroller in the vein of Gunstar Heroes, Contra, Streets of Rage, and theirs even a bit of Ikaruga and other Shoot-Em-Ups in there at certain sequences.

Story has to do with a single transmission sent in by a covert-ops squadron just before they went MIA, and an assault force is sent in after them, of course there's also another mystery organization getting involved and what-not, as that final tranmission pertained to some very secret information the mystery organization didn't want getting out. The whole message was never recieved, only a fragment, and you need to find and decode the rest of it. The reason it wasn't fully recieved was because each member of the covert-ops squad was sending a fragment of it via Burst Transmittion, or Data Burst... and there's a quick summary without spoiling characters or whatnot.

Which do you guys think is better? I'm asking you because, well, you're the fans. Figure I'd go to the source.

+1 to Burst Transmission. IMHO, Data Burst doesn't sound anything like a shooter, but BT has the whole "their last transmission before going MIA" wrapped up inside
