Holy crap, I'm glad I decided to fork over the $80 for the CD+Figure set early. I just hope they don't have any issues with the shipments themselves.

WTF.

Either the reviewer doesn't like shmups, doesn't understand shmups or doesn't like Cave. Whatever. Never did read much of Insert Credit's stuff anyway (they seem to post a lot about H-games lately)...

Fingers crossed (that by the start of next week we'll have some good news from Cocoebiz)...

Yeah, the confirmation e-mail they sent once I paid said they'll announce the shipping date soon, so I'm assuming they'll e-mail everyone once they get it in their hands or something. Are they usually pretty quick to send stuff out?

Side note, did anyone else get the pre-invoice email and have it say the shipping was only 1250 yen and not 1860? That and them claiming the exchange rate was 103 or whatever when I saw 107 on a daily updated exchange site.

Cocoebiz is usually very fast to ship out stuff depending on what shipping method you requested your item(s) to be sent out with. Usually you have to wait a few extra days after the release date (so they can get their hands on stock and then send it out) but if you're patient, then at least a week after release should be likely.

Excellent samples, velocity7. Too bad Stage 2 and 3 music was ruined by making the chord progressions more generic for ...Rock...

Well... I really like the uniqueness on stage 4 and 5.

Cool. I ordered it with EMS since going cheaper would only have saved like $1. So, since the CD is released in Japan in a week, would it be safe to assume it'll be here in Texas maybe that Friday or Saturday?

Actually, Manabu wasn't alone on this, Masaharu Iwata and Hitoshi Sakimoto worked on some portions as well.

Iwata I could understand, but Sakimoto? Man, I don't even find his style in the entire OST, the only song that sounds REMOTELY in his style is track (17.) Walking on the Land of Flame / Stage3 (Arranged)

EDIT: Ayako Saso worked on TRACK 17, Hitoshi Sakimoto worked on TRACK 14.

Namiki, and Iwata worked on the original soundtrack.

$60 for an OST? That includes the PS2 game too right? Wink

Fatties and all

Is the soundtrack going to be available in a few weeks? I'm quite broke but as I downloaded it I'd like to buy it when I get some cash.

Apparently the entire first shipment sold out already and they're making another print in May (the 20th, IIRC). It'll still have the figure, though I kinda wish for those with less cash that they'd release it a CD-only version, as well. I got my set today, but it'd suck to only be able to afford the CD and have them only sell the higher-priced set.

The figure is bliss.
