This week insanely fast shooting chaos returns to the PS2 with Chaos Field New Order. Lightening fast reflexes and a steady head are needed to dodge your way through the swarms of bullets heading towards you here. Using a slash move however lets you counter certain types of enemy fire, and as you can see from the boss in the movie below, this is used to add brilliant new play styles to the classic genre. With varied attacks, lock-on weapons, plenty of power-ups and a special attack meter, there's a lot of depth to be found in this shmup.

Furthermore you can choose from three different characters, Hal and his balanced ship, Ifumi with her focus on better reinforcement and maneuverability, or Jinn whose prototype ship may be slower, but packs a lot more punch. Extra innovations come into play with the ability to switch between two fields. Rather than just move around the flat screen, you can come up to a higher field where there's often more items, or down below where you can get a better shot at your attackers, but of course they get a better shot at you too. Not to say you'll be safe up top that is, and sometimes you'll fight two bosses at once, one on each field. Fans of these action packed shooters will find everything they love here, but beyond that, a whole lot more too.
