Hehe, it does look a bit daft, but I think Taito have always spelt it that way, internally. It looks like that in the game's official logo, and is written the same way on the OST, in some generic swishy font.

I had thought it was one word as well, but the group of editors at wikia said it was two words. Looks like I'll be changing it after all.

Translating the endings must be taking longer than expected for the crack team at SquareEnix.

Hmmm. This is getting more interesting as time goes by.

Here's hoping it gets released over here on *UMD*, thankyouverymuch.

A two-disc arrange album has been announced, and features 18 artists well known to VGM fans (the most exciting for me being OGR, YACK, TECHNOuchi and Manabu Namiki).

Preorders will apparently come with a bonus disc featuring some unreleased music from the game, some special stuff Hisayoshi Ogura did for a few Taito medal games, and some extra music Tamayo Kawamoto wrote for an old Rayforce superplay video.

Official press release here.

Say, what? Are you sure? I'm buying it if they are behind it, but it doesn't say anything about it on G.Rev's site?

So ... is this any good? I'm mostly interested in it for the Syvalion dragon ... I just found out that Fukio Mitsuji, designer of Bubble Bobble/Rainbow Islands/Syvalion died last year.

I mean, depends, if you're a huge Darius and Taito fan, you will like it. If you mainly liked G Darius because of its challenge and score system then this might disappoint you, as it doesn't offer the same depth (no scoring difference between routes).

I like everything Darius and think it's really good, albeit not as good as G and Gaiden.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread but does anyone know if this can be played on the Vita with the PSN download?

Great stuff. I'll have to resurrect my old JP PSN account and check it out. I'm assuming it'll play on my US Vita since the JP PSX games play on the US PS3 or am I wrong to assume that?

EDIT:Nevermind I guess. Can't log in with my other account on my Vita. Screw playing this game I guess.

There's no region lock per se, but I believe that in order to use a different account on the same Vita you have to use a totally different memory card. You can't have two accounts on the same card, which is dumb.

Ok cool, thanks! I'll try that soon since I have two cards.
