Are you guys really arguing which arcade shooter played on a console with gamepads needs more skill?

Both are great, both require different skills to succeed, why not leave it at that?

I was actually saying that they both need skill but yeah I agree. Let's leave it at that.

Yah, I know you were, I was just trying to seem fair when butting in!

They clearly both need skill - the feeling someone would get jumping into a game a few months after launch is a testement to that alone - and that's what I wanted to convey.  Also, I just stuck in the bit about gamepads, etc. to get some focus not to knock them a'la Shio.

Both titles require skill and I just fail to see any objective way to say one needs more than the other, as Yo John seemed to be pushing (and I know you were more pushing the angle the both need skill vs one requiring more skill, so no worries there!).

There's no way to quantify that suitably.  It's just an opinion between those titles IMHO.
