Guess I'm in the minority here but I prefer the Gamecube version.

Well, at least the XBLA version has the text intermissions that were removed from the GameCube version...BareKnuckleRoo wrote:Sadly, you're wrong. On the surface, the XBLA is an acceptably playable port, but far too many things were changed unnecessarily (who knows why), rendering it a subpar port as far as accuracy goes.xxx1993 wrote:Why bother making a poll out of this? Aren't all the ports the same? I mean, the Xbox 360 version is just like the Dreamcast version, just with a few differences, but both of them are pretty much on the same level.

I too am wondering this and wish someone had answereddrunkninja24 wrote:Wait, does the Steam version not have the pattern differences etc. of the XBLA version?ratikal wrote:1. Dreamcast - Closest to NAOMI you'll get.
2. Steam - Best for ease of access, nothing glaringly wrong.
3. Gamecube - Has the aforementioned Conquest mode, but there's some glaring sound issues.
4. XBLA - Lasers and some enemy patterns are completely different.
Honestly, get the Steam version. If you really want the Conquest mode of the Gamecube version, just save state on a Dreamcast emulator (after you bought the Steam version of course.)

Ikaruga DC looks incredible on an HDTV or monitor with the OSSC or RetroTink 5x. Finding the adapters can be a pain, though. OSSC has the advantage of a VGA port, but RetroTink needs a VGA to Scart adapter or something similar.evil_ash_xero wrote: Dreamcast is the most faithful port, but unless you have VGA, you'll be stuck looking at it in 480i. And if you're playing on an HDTV, the XBLA version is going to look MUCH MUCH better than the DC version anyway.

I'm under the impression that the PS4, Switch, and Steam versions are very similar.xxx1993 wrote:In terms of modern ports, the PS4 is the best one.
