Looking to buy new Cave PCB in july/august ?

Post by Trevor spencer »

Hi

in july i will be gettin a work related bonus and im thinking of treating myself to a new PCB , the games that interest me the most is : Mushihime Sama Futari Version 1.5 or Death Smiles

I cant afford these games often so i dont really want to waste my money , so if anyone can tell me what they honestly think of the above games and how much they think they might be worth in july/august time that would be great

Thanks ;)

They're both very awesome games, though personally I like Death Smile a bit better, both because of the style and because the game system is so different. Also, I like the fact that it's so easy. ;) Futari has the same style as the predecessor, just better looking. The game system has undergone a huge overhaul though, and is completely different from part 1. Original mode is also very easy and accessible.

Basically you can't go wrong with either, just get whatever one appeals to you more.

I believe that Death Smiles is the better game.

Mushi Futari will last you longer though. More bang for your buck, etc.

I think MSF 1.5 / BL is the better game but Death Smiles is more popular *at the moment* (maybe cos its newer?).

Personally felt DS was a little hollow feeling but maybe its a grower (or maybe you need to play it on 3 all the way through).

im liking that , i really need another 1cc other than espgaluda too boost my confidence again :lol:

Deathsmiles does seem like a good choice but do you guys think it will drop in price soon :( i really didnt want to spend more than £350 , think i might be dreaming for a buy in july at that price tho :(

I think you'll have to wait about another year until DS drops to 350 quid. :?

One more thought... We know about the 1.5 BL release but we don't know if DS will get a BL or 1.5 or whatever... I guess time will tell.

I think it won't be too long where DS costs ~100,000 yen. I would definitely wait for that price drop. Note that DS is only easy if you play on the pussy levels. All Rank 3 plus the extra stage and it gets quite spicey.
