This game looks actually rather shitty from the pictures. I don't like the modeling or whatever it is they are using for the graphics. Maybe the gameplay will make up for it...

still sorta looking forward to this minus the ugly graphics.

Looks like MOSS is actual (co-)developer of the game http://www.mossjp.co.jp/ ...so it might not be complete crap.

Also two new trailers appeared on official site (promotional&digest) showing all stages & other stuff
http://game.snkplaymore.co.jp/official/ ... index.html

And from the official blog, arcade version is done and will be out there next week, they are moving onto XBLA development now (Spring 2009 schedule).

Looks like Rugal shows up for boss duty here as well...and I think I saw Shermie in there too.

If it shows up on XBLA and it's cheap, I might actually pick it up. It can't be that bad, right? :P

After watching the trailer and seeing that MOSS is developing the game, that actually has me excited for it. I really liked Raiden III & IV, curious to see what they do with this.

Yeah, I thought this looked kind of lousy from the initial screens, but it's really looking like it could be good fun. The characters each have a ton of different attacks, and I'm really digging whole Vs. thing. That's usually the way I play coop anyway. :P Unless the demo is trash, I think this'll def be getting my money.

I hope that was her, not sure who else that could have been, the hair color was a bit odd.

Looks like Orochi Shermie, along with Orochi himself near the end. Complete with KOF 97's "Rhythmic Hallucination" miniboss BGM. /oldschool KOF music geek.

Not really bothered about this title, but knowing Moss is involved is certainly a plus point, and it looks like a fun game either way.

At JP PSN/XBLA Marketplace? No? I'm excited for the game due the fact... that my favorite characters (maybe outside that slutty Mai) are in there haha and that.... RUGAL is a boss in there OH SHIT I so hate that guy aaaaaaaaaa. I'm gonna def. buy it when it's out in US/EU PSN, really. This looks great and... much better than KOF XII fun-wise.

I don't think a lot of people here realize that MOSS is essentially a bailout company for Seibu Kaihatsu employees. It's not just Raiden III and IV that most of them have developed.

I think the whole premise behind this game is pretty dumb, but if MOSS is behind it I bet it'll be a lot of fun.
Of course, that's just an opinion.

Why would anyone want this anyway? it's essentially the same vertical scrollers you've been getting for years where there isn't level or enemy design at all. you could replace it with a touhou background and it'd be exacty the same shit.
Besides, Moss hasn't really done anything useful in years. they're just milking a dead franchise. in fact, with this they're taking a break from that to help someone else milk a dead franchise.

"Rhythmic Hallucination"
I am a big fan of those Orochi themes

but if it's Shermie, why not Fanatic Waltz

I'd say Raiden III was good, and people go more nuts over Raiden IV which I have not played

I don't think a franchise was ever really dead when you can successfully resurrect it after about a decade of radio silence (more if you exclude ports; also, not counting RF)

Still says summer 2010
There's something on INH's website suggesting a dvd for this. Maybe someone who can read jpnz should have a look see. If this is right, it may mean this game has solid scoring.

Wasn't The Perfect Terror packed in with the game? I was hoping that DeathSmiles would get one for the us ver. I know, pointless when you can download replays..

what is the INH website address?

this game doesn't look as bad as I first thought but the fact that moss is doing it kind of scares me of slow gameplay.

If they're doing another insanity dvd, it's probably 'cause they've done a few for Raiden/Moss before. I'm being optimistic about this game. The vs mode might be fun.

If this has Sky Stage, and a new game, I want it! Looks like it has a Dariua style level select. I really hope these games turn out well, I like playing shmups on handhelds.
