Reviewing Irem Collection Volume 3 is kinda like going on a joyride through my childhood gaming memories. So, bear with me as I spill my thoughts on this one. The peeps from ININ Games, Tozai Games, and Ratalaika Games gave me the rundown, and guess what? I get to yak about it. Lucky, huh?
Alright, picture this: it’s 2023, and I’m knee-deep in Volume 1 — you know, Image Fight, Image Fight II, and X-Multiply. Flash forward to 2024, I’m vibing with Volume 2 on my Switch. GunForce, GunForce II, and Air Duel had me hooked. Fast forward again to this gem, Irem Collection Volume 3 lands on PS5. We’re talking Mr. Heli (a.k.a. Battle Chopper, if you fancy), Mystic Riders, and Dragon Breed. A wholesome trio of shoot ’em ups. It’s like a déjà vu but with a twist!
Okay, sidebar — you ever notice how the sound of old game cartridges sliding into a console feels like wrapping yourself in nostalgia? Or maybe that’s just me being weirdly sentimental. Anyway — wait, no! Back on track. The shoot ’em ups here are like beans on toast — simple but oh-so-good.
Now, a quick detour because I’m handing out something cool — A FREE PlayStation NA digital copy of Volume 3! Seriously, why not grab it? Giveaway clocks out on August 8, 2025, right before midnight PST — don’t say I didn’t warn ya.
Oh, and if you’re as game-crazy as I am, pop over to our giveaways page. Who doesn’t love free stuff?
Good luck! Cross your fingers, rub a rabbit’s foot, or whatever you do for luck — no judgment.
Spotted a random pic? Yeah, just tossing those in. Appreciating games in all dimensions, or something like that.
Catch you on the flip side!
