Metal Slug 6 certainly seems to follow that pattern. Bosses must be a hoot in that game - they're all suddenly minibosses

They've got a video of Ketsui up.

this kind of stuff just makes me want to puke blood.

It makes me wonder who actually evaluates or even knows of or even PLAYS any of these games.

The fact that MS just see "arcade ports" as one big category just blows my mind, they have the metality of "well, if you want an arcade shooter , we did contra, whats wrong with that?"

fucking idiots, they screw the indies with their royalty scam, and now can't even see quality when its presented to them.

dear microsoft, take your shitty backbone developed arcade rushjobs, your fucking jelly car, fucking assault heroes, and your other amateurish indie games and stick them right up your fucking asses, the indies trying to make a living hate you and now you're making the hardcore hate you too.

the hardcore that have always been here and will continue to be here long after the braying middle american masses have gone back to doing beer bongs and limp biskit after calling each other 'niggerjewfaggot' over the FPS du jour - your selesction of "arcade games" is beginning to look no better than your average mobile phone companies gaming lineup.

Send it here. I think, despite its profanity, there's a point in there somewhere:

Spam this guys e-mail with complaints, please.

*Note- For that movie, you need to watch the whole thing (Or at least the second half) to see vids of KOF XII. The first part is from XI for comparison, and yes, I have had to tell people that before, so I figured I'd save a lazy person some embarrassment.

Reanimated, yes. Redrawn, it's happened before. Terry doesn't just randomly get a Garou costume out of the blue. And what about O. Yashiro?

Highly responsive post. Lovely.

no they rip it from garou, cut some of the frames out of the animation then slap it in KOF.

Not always. Have you seen the SvC Terry?

Aside from all the other random talk is there an expected date or quarter for DDP and Ketsui X?

Sorry man, I forgot to mark that as an April Fools joke.

Though I bought his Greatest Hits CD a week ago and I must say, it is damn good.

Anyways, I need to get to getting my JP 360 for Ketsui. The more I watch of that game the more I want to play it. The scoring system looks superb, far better than chaining.

Talon · Post by **Talon** » Thu Apr 10, 2008 1:11 pm

I just pur in an order for my JP 360 the other day although I won't be getting it until the end of the month >_<. I have other games that I bought for it but it does me no good if I don't have the system LoL. Damnit, I want my JP 360 and both DDP and Ketsui X now XD.

Some more info: http://www.watch.impress.co.jp/game/doc ... 09/5pb.htm

From what I can gather from the rough babelfish translation, the Dai Ou Jou release will contain the original version and the black label version. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong...

Greatest hits ? I thought an artist would need a fair amount of "hits" to release a "Greatest Hits" ?

That's correct, but was also stated in the original Famitsu article, so not really news.

bcass · Post by **bcass** » Sat Apr 12, 2008 11:41 am

Never saw it mentioned before, so I'm sure a few people were unaware. I certainly wasn't aware of it.

Gerk · Post by **Gerk** » Sat Apr 12, 2008 5:57 pm

No XBLA?

Shit. More gamerpoints for me.

or...

I do find a certain degree of irony in Xbox Live Arcade turning down Arcade ports.

However, what I think the guy meant by "faithful" arcade ports was 100% direct ones. Ikaruga and Exelica work because they're in 3D which I'd assume would be easy to upscale (textures notwithstanding.) Raiden Fighters and pretty much the entire CAVE suite, however...

But of course, I'm sure someone beat me to this point like 2 pages ago. ¬_¬

Judging from the screens we've seen of these conversions so far, they are presented in their native resolution (which is why the play screen looks so small). The main issue (for people not using CRTs) is whether they will put a scanlines option in without any other filters (or filters you can turn off) to maintain the low-res look.

Gerk · Post by **Gerk** » Sat Apr 12, 2008 6:17 pm

Oh.

OH.

Wow. Now I understand the big demand for the scanlines option. I think they're cool looking, but, still. Took me a while. >_>
