That is great news. Not being an expert player on this game, that was the single biggest issue for me. I wonder if it was a bug, or inept design...

Whenever this finally comes out, you guys confirm if the loading is fixed or not. I heard it wasn't going to be, and now it is.

If so, I may pick it up, as I am developing a fondness for this game, and wouldn't mind an easier alternative to mess around with time to time.

I'm glad I bought this game while I could. I'm assuming more people are gonna start looking once the patch is out.

Assuming it fixes all of the numerous issues. Loading times is the least of the problems.

It's in this thread... Somewhere! :D

I can't remember exactly either, but I do remember they were plentiful. :wink:

Not bad. I'd say waiting an extra month for the patch is worth it for reduced loading frequency and time.

Ketsui is going to be demo'd at the upcoming 12/27 Cave festival.

Everything else is inferred I think, based upon this. Cave isn't going to show the demo if it's shitty, or if they are considering cancellation.

Bumping this so people don't feel the need to start a new "Ketsui for XBOX 360" thread every month.

So, any news on the now-over festival? Was Ketsui really in attendance?

Yes, it was. There was briefly a new thread here about it but it seems it got deleted (understandably). Too bad that the mod didn't copy the "good stuff" from that thread to this before deleting it.

there was a 2 level demo available and supposedly it was great, very faithful to the original with next to no loading (just word of mouth, wasent there myself).

i only had an afternoon with DOJ BLEX (played the PCB to death tho) but gameplay wise i thought it was great, sure menus are whack and all that but who cares, the actual game is what matters no?
anyone not buying it over that bullshit list of "faults" is a fool.

cant help but laugh over this trivial "oooh 2% of the slowdown is inaccurate compared to the PCB" stuff aswell, its not like in the older days when slowdown was largeley a sideeffect of the different platforms hardware limitations, now its just there for the sake of gameplay and if two versions slightly differ it doesnt mean one is unplayable - if the xbox version had come first people would be bitching the other way around and claiming the PCB was inaccurate...

as a PCB-only player i can say that you xbox owners out there are getting the good end of the deal bigtime here.. stop bitching and enjoy it instead, youre getting superior versions of the games for a fraction of the price!!
the destruction of everything, is the beginning of something new. your whole world is on fire, and soon, you'll be too..

Mine had a different bug that stopped me from entering my initials after getting the 1CC in Extra mode though. :cry: :arrow: :| :arrow: :oops:

I wouldn't worry about that too much. I reckon the Leaderboards will be wiped once the DOJ patch arrives in January.

I'm doubting this game looks very good on an LCD...how does it look on a CRT? For the record, I don't even like playing Death Smiles on an LCD. LCD just sorta fucks up the upscaled backgrounds, in my eyes. At least Futari has filters.

It comes with a 1 hour long DVD of the 5pb president bowing apologetically while being slapped around the head by Mihara.

Insta-buy.

On a serious note, does Amazon.jp also list a separate "regular edition" for Ketsui or only the "limited" one? They could just be using a fancy name for the thing...
