Astro Boy: Omega Factor for the GBA has to be my overall favorite from Treasure.

Bangai-O needs to be released for XBLA. I loved that game on Dreamcast.

Alien Soldier has "terrorlists" thus it is my favorite Treasure game.

Gunstar heroes is one of my favourite treasure games. Hmmmm...I wanna go play it now :P

Ikaruga because the whole Black and White aspect adds a whole new dimension to that type of gameplay.

IKARUGA!!!

Guardian Heroes

I'm pretty sure I remember reading that it is being ported to DS.

I've actually never played a Treasure game :|

Ikaruga.

I fail.

Mischief Makers!

Radiant Silvergun

bangai-o is pretty good and I havent played Ikaruga.

Although I've loved them all, my favorite is probably Gunstar Heroes, because it took Contra and twisted the mechanics just enough to make a fresh, fast-paced action game that felt different. Every level had you attacking it in new ways, and no two are alike.

Gunstar Heroes!

gunstar heroes

Mischief Makers!!!

An entire game about physically abusing emoticons? Sign me up. Shake Shake!

Astro Boy: Omega Factor for Game Boy Advance

Astro Boy: Omega Factor has to be one of the best Treasure games.

Gunstar Heroes

Tiny Toon Adventures: Buster's Bad Dream

Ikaruga

Favorite Treasure game.... has to be between Gradius V or Ikaruga. But ill say Gradius V but if you dont count Gradius V as a Treasure game ill say Ikaruga

Sin & Punishment

I'm going to go with the non-filler parts of Stretch Panic. Without the filler, it would have been the most awesome 20 minutes of my life.

definitely gunstar heroes!

Gunstar Heroes

Radiant Silvergun

Ikaruga is my favorite Treasure game, and seeing as how I already have it for Dreamcast and Gamecube, I am hoping to get it for free the 3rd time, in HD no less.

Ikaruga!

Stretch Panic, of course! OK, not really. It's probably Gunstar Heroes.

Maybe I don't deserve to win. As much as I love Treasure I think my favorite game of theirs was Silpheed: The Lost Planet. Go figure, everything else has been too hard for me to really enjoy over the years. Fun, pretty, but a little tough for my liking. Thanks for the chance to win anyhow.

Ikaruga

Gunstar Heroes for the Genesis

Mischief Makers

Gunstar Heroes

Gunstar Heroes was awesome!!

Guardian Heroes!

gunstar heroes

GUNSTAR HEROES hands down. Even replayed it a million times when Gametap brought it back!

Gunstar heroes

Gunstar Heroes.

Sin and Punishment: Successor to the Earth

- Adam

Ikaruga! I wonder if the XBLA version will support monitor tilting.

Gunstar Heroes.

Gunstar Heroes (Genesis)

Bleach DS: Souten ni Kakeru Unmei

Ikaruga

Gunstar Heroes

Astro Boy: Omega Factor.

If you've never tried this and have a GBA or DS, you should really try it out, it's one of the best Megaman-style games on either system.
