Chaos Field -expanded- Gamecube vids (revealing)!
Milestone has put up a movie of the GC version of Chaos Field, and it looks kinda smooth (imo). Looks like it's no strict boss-fest only anymore (check the first scenes of the vid). Got me interested!

Yup, this looks like everything the DC version should have been.
(Looks into wallet. Cries.)
Thanks for the heads-up, Super Laydock!

I'm waiting for a DC to arrive, so I'll get that version, and have no regrets. Because even with these changes in Chaos Field for the GameCube, the DC is still a far superior console for shmups, IMO.

First off. I fucking love that BGM remix.
And it wouldn't be too bad to have the actual small enemies every now and again, to sort of flesh out the whole First Assailant->Mid-Boss->Main Guardian formula of CF's phases..
....eh. A sad trend indeed. As grateful as I am to be playing CF, (and Psyvariar 2 for example) on the DC, it sucks that they're just vanilla ports, whilst the multiplatform releases have that nice layer of polish that makes the package more enjoyable throughout (extra options, arrange modes, slowdown fixes, what have you). I bet the GC version actually saves score data.
Not really complaining about DC releases, mind you. But come on, just look at the video. There's like...NO slowdown. XD

It can be or sometimes it can just be annoying like in shiki2, I'd much rather have it optional than forced upon me because of dated hardware.dave4shmups wrote:Slowdown can be advantageous, especially in a shmup with as many bullets as Chaos Field has.
Too bad none of the DC versions have the soundtrack; it sounds really great!
Only included with pre-orders from Sega Direct, it's the remix CD vol. 2.highlandcattle wrote:I got mine pre-ordered at play-asia.i heard they came with a bonus sound track

There's the remix CD vol. 1 included with the DC version, which was only through Sega Direct as well.Too bad none of the DC versions have the soundtrack; it sounds really great!
The full Chaos Field OST is sold seperately and widely available.
