if i just watched that intro without knowing what it was about i would not have known it was about a shmup. some footage of the game would have been nice but it's a nice intro otherwise, yes.

Great looking intro, can't wait for more footage!

The music sounds like Shinji Hosoe judging by the first few chords.

So if Border Down was Darius Gaiden, and Under Defeat was that early Taito heli shooter, I guess that means this is Kiki Kaikai.

'Twould be sweet if this winds up getting a 360 port.

Fixed. But your theory holds some water, I'll give you that much.

I'd be interested in seeing up-to-date game footage, but soon enough it will leak out.

Whoops, I meant G Darius.

Unless I'm misinterpreting Google Translate; Yousuke Yasui is the composer.

A ton of screen shots: http://www.famitsu.com/game/news/1216815_1124.html

Graphically disappointing, but at least the game looks intense!

lol@Ikaruga.

And yes, game looks like ass.

Observer · Post by **Observer** » Mon Jul 28, 2008 2:11 pm

So it uses Naomi... Looks pretty hectic so guess that's why the graphics look so bad? A fuckton of bullets everywhere?

Funny how they always point out the name and the age... XXXX: UNDERAGED.

I bet the fourth character is actually a goddess or some 1k years entity.

Man...you folks are just plain stinkin' harsh. I mean, sure: it may not be the most detailed game there ever was, but to me, in terms of graphics, I think it looks boss.

And yes, I realize that using the word "boss" like that dates/nerdifies me, but I don't care.

I wish this had come out two years ago, so we could have gotten a DC port of it.

*sigh*

Looks great in any case.

Main character is a trap? lol

I'm almost sure we'll eventually get a 360 port.

At any rate, this game looks pretty cool, actually. At first I wasn't feeling it, but after that last video it looks like it could be a lot of fun.

The video really does look cool. I hope if it gets a home port that there's an option to turn voices off =) ..And that it comes out on a system which is at least somewhat easy to import for.

Wouldn't the apropriate word be "shouta" since he isn't pretending to be a girl or anything like that?

As an ass man, I'll take that as a compliment. Naomi to 360 seems...unlikely. I suppose we can hope for a Wii port.

Ahh, but that's exactly what happened with Senko no Ronde, right?

I'd forgotten that that was a Naomi port. Interesting...

Vid makes it look like there's a ton of variety and some interesting play mechanics.
Tho it's colourful, I still think aesthetically it's a bit crap - Under Defeat and Border Down both looked better. This looks like PS1.5 or something, which is a shame considering technology these days.
If the in game graphics were 2D and similar to the character portraits, we'd be in business!

Still, looking forward to it.
