Mutant Storm Empire is closest in genre to R-Type. It has continually flowing levels, varied enemy types, and changing scenery. I think the big difference in the two sub-genres is the ability to shoot in any direction in Geo Wars and the like, versus choreographed shots in Ibara and the like. Both giving drastically different gameplay experiences. One is often deeper, requiring more thought; while the other is often more frantic, demanding reflexes most people wish they had.
That being said, those PSP collections are making me hard just thinking about them.
