TOKYO--Japanese game publisher G.Rev may not be the biggest publisher at this week's Tokyo Game Show, but its upcoming announcements will surely get people talking. The company said today that it will use the show to announce a title for Microsoft's Xbox 360, together with another surprise title, the platform of which is also a mystery. Details of both games will be revealed at the event, but considering the company is best known for its arcade shooters, it's possible that more twitch games are on the way.

G.Rev is one of the few remaining arcade developers in Japan that is dedicated to creating shooting games. Established in 2000, the company is known for a number of hit titles including Border Down and the recently released Senko no Ronde, which plays like a mixture of a shooter and fighting game.

G.Rev has a strong relationship with Sega, since all its arcade titles to date have been released on the Naomi platform. A G.Rev statement says all announcements will be made at Sega's booth.

the surprise title is probably senko no ronde on DC.
no clue what the 360 one might be, if i had to bet i would say some non-arcade action game

Ahh, been waiting for this ever since officially G.Rev signed on as X360 devs. However this does make matters difficult for us X360 folks who won't be owning a JP region system. With MS claiming new anti-mod technology in X360... Let's hope we see a worldwide release for G.Rev's product right away.

Or you could just buy a JP X360. That's what I plan to do if GREV releases a shmup on it (Treasure could follow with a port of their upcoming Type-X arcade shmup).

Actually Treasure is working on a new 2D game for 360 according to www.gamefront.de . I'm hoping the other title is a DC port of Sendo too. *-neo

The team behind the xecuter modchip have got their hands on two X360Dk Dev. Kits...they say six months tops before they have a chip out for it.

Wahtever the title will be it's gonna take a long time for it to see the light of day (considering the expected development time on next gen systems and treasure's desire to take advantage of it...).

I am more than interested in Senko no Ronde anyway for the moment.

I have no doubt there will be a chip, but at what consequence. MS have been finding new ways to scan for any and all hardware mods to systems via Xbox Live (even with chips turned off, lately people have been claiming they are getting discovered by MS). Sounds like it will be a real pain to use Xbox Live with any modded system.

What about the PS-3 & Revolution?
Any speculation of how long it will be until they get modded?
