Raiden Fighters Aces video out in Euro 360 market place!

Danny · Post by **Danny** » Fri Jan 11, 2008 6:55 pm

Hello guys and gals!

Not sure if this has been reported but I did a quick search and could not find anything so I'll post here. On the Eurpiean Market Place for the Xbox 360 a video has emerged of Raiden Fighters Aces. This is exciting news because as a rule of thumb you can only put stuff on the Euro market place if you intend to release stuff in that region. So it looks like we might be getting RFA... yey!

Anyway just thought I let you know but if you knew this already then I apologise please ignore this message!

Yes it did. Downloaded it the other day. Don't know if it's still up, it was there last Wednesday.

and buy a X360

I can't find the video on the US marketplace. It definitely isn't in the same spot as it is in the japanese marketplace.

I'm not seeing it either! It it was on the US Marketplace, they've pulled it now.

Yeah the video is still there in the Euro market place. Check the new arrivals under 'Game Videos'. Looks like this title will be getting a budget release here in the PAL territories.

The video came out in the UK on Wednesday when all the live games appear but its a full price game i think....

It looks superb....of course.

For anyone with a PC....

the lock on is clearly bugged out, the right laser should be moving

I noticed that to but yeah it's a beta. Also if this game is released at full price I don't see it staying at that price for long. I mean look at Senko...

Is that a disc-release or XBLA?

Also doesn't the screen look a bit too small?
I mean, the actualy game-screen is a third of the whole screen

It's suppose to be a DVD based games. Also, took a look at the trailer on Xbox LIVE, and oddly enough, the trailer is available on the Canadian Marketplace and not on the US one

I'd be happy about this if there was a cheap and cheerful way of hooking my HRAP up to the 360.

"It's suppose to be a DVD based games."

In Japan maybe. Nothing has been confirmed for Europe yet. Might end up as a low budget disc release...I hope.

If this does end up coming to the States, I'm buying 2 copies. Full price or budget disc, I'm showing my support.

Just checked and it's not there, why the heck would they take it down? Anyways, great news as long as it comes to the states (and if it's a DVD and they could cut us a break and leave the disc unlocked, don't know why more devs don't), only drawback is MS almost certainly won't allow Success to include TATE, especially if it's XBLA.

Ikaruga HD has TATE...and it's gonna be on XBLA.

Nice. Knew it was gonna be on XBLA but had no idea it had TATE. That's what I get for being AWOL from the forum for months.

Then I should assume that something like this would be your best bet.

I am so confused, I always thought this was going to be a XBLA release.
I want to support shmups on current gen consoles but after hearing this I'm not feeling very inclined to get this game anymore...

Yeah fuck those guys for not publishing a niche genre's title as a virtual download instead of a retail, physical purchase.
