Holy shit, i take back what i said on the other thread, looks great

As far as Im concerned, the more shmup titles that show up on XBLA, the better.

Im always happy to hear of new ones appearing on there.

I'll be buying this when it comes out, yes.

EDIT: had a look at the 3 videos..... yes, this looks good.

Though, is it just me, or do not many things fire at the player during those vids?

And I wonder how the scoring and mechanics are gonna work..... hard to tell everything that's goin on just from those vids.

And then while I was on that site, I heard about Shikigami 3 also coming to that system, and OMIGOD need that too.....

i all over that like a cheap suit, i thought this was some other euro intern project ala Aegis wing or whatever its called. I assume its a Japanese developed shmup from being shown at TGS

lawnspic, it's developed by Natsume and published by Hudson Soft, both companies I respect tremendously.

I'm really glad someone made a thread, because all the western publications only highlighted Ikaruga and Rez from that announcement. I love both those games, but I've played them both to death. I'm more excited for this game, E4 (Every Extend), and Schizoid.

I'm a very happy 360 owner. Senko no Ronde was already worth it to me if nothing else. And my favorite company is developing for the system. (You could maybe figure out who from my avatar perhaps.)

Aye, Senko no Ronde what what originally caused me to purchase a 360 as well.

And I too am veeeeeeery pleased with the thing. Aside from Senko no Ronde (which is crazy awesome), I also have Burnout (LOVE) and have just started on Crackdown (boy is that a fun one). And Im very happy with the Arcade lineup they have going right now.

And did I mention that Geometry Wars is awesome too? Cause it is.

cause this games a shmup

jp · Post by jp » Sun Sep 23, 2007 1:05 pm

Man, this game looks great!

And November seems so far away...

Is that for the US release as well? Or JP only?

Post by **Ghegs** » Sun Sep 23, 2007 2:27 pm

I'm such a sucker for the Jetpack Trilogy and other games like this. Since it's Natsume, I wonder if they're going to include any lil' homages towards Final Mission (aka. S.C.A.T/Action in New York).

First game for 360 that actually interests me, heh.

lawnspic · Post by **lawnspic** » Sun Sep 23, 2007 3:08 pm

well its nice to have something to look forward to in the shmup dept. and even more so thats its gonna be on a next gen system. with such interest and games like GW being well received we can expect more to come

Now thats some shit.

Lost scenes from R-Type Final.

From the videos I saw the gameplay seems to be a modernized Forgotten Worlds. I dont have XBOXLIVE but might jump into it when this comes out. I also want that Prince of Persia remake.

Nice, I didn't know that both companies were involved!

Hudson+Natsume= awesome shmup, IMO.

Afterbirth · Post by **Afterbirth** » Sun Sep 23, 2007 11:24 pm

Yeah....i don't know what part Hudson play in the game but i do know that Natsume are notorious for game bugs - some deliberate though.

Wouldn't suprise me if the NES version of SCAT is hidden within the bowels of the erm....game.

Great videos. Squirt water on things, then watch them explode! LOL

I'll pass.

LOL. My thoughts exactly. And what's the deal with the guy just floating around the screen, keeping his arms at his sides while some big watergun dangerously close to his crotch is hosing down things? Lame.

why all the hate..

I saw some videos of this, looks great, gonna be fun beating scores on live.

Because its on the 360.

At any rate, just watched the videos, it looks fairly decent. Reminds me of old school shmuppin' (for obvious reasons probably), so I'm definitely looking forward to it.

Afterbirth · Post by **Afterbirth** » Mon Sep 24, 2007 9:37 pm

Whats wrong with the 360 then?
