I'm newly addicted to the genre! I've decided that I want to get an xbox for a lot of the exclusive bullet hell shmups along with other games (like alan wake and shadow complex). I've been looking at different lists and sites and I've found 3 that I'm particularily interested and was wondering if there's any I've haven't come across that are either localized, or aren't region-locked. I've already looked through the recommendations thread but didn't find many games in that genre.

Umm Raiden IV and another Raiden fighter aces

There is Ray Storm HD, and trigger heart Exilca on arcade.

but if you want a real bullet hell game get into the Touhou series.

raiden iv looks right down my alley. good suggestion.

question: is the touhou games PC only? I own a pretty good laptop so I shouldn't have a problem either way but that youtube video you linked looked AWESOME

PC only but you'd have to have a PC made before 1995 for the games to run at less than 60 FPS. Keep in mind that they are doujin games though, so they're not easy to get a hold of.

touhou games are really simple to run. Impershible night (Touhou 8 (the linked video)) is considered one of the easier ones too.
