[-S.L-]

I do love Cave, still, I know this doll part is optional, you dont have to play this way in this great game that i already own in PCB anyway.

All good.

1. Nobody has to agree with anything cave does to be an "omg true fan".
2. It's mostly silly joking around, nobody is seriously ragging on it.
3. You are CONSTANTLY ragging on cave's games for not being what you want them to be.

I love CAVE but you can't help but critizice whst you love precisely because you love it.

3. The irony, the motherfucking irony.

But he's already stablished a school of fandom: The Trouserplankism... He can't be more of a fan.

[DrTrouserPlank]

I'm probably the only person here with this game on pre-order who hasn't watched any of the pre-release spiel and doesn't really know how the game plays.

I'm almost tempted to document my impressions and subsequent frustrations with the game in some sort of blog-esque thread.

The irony is that I probably like CAVE more than anyone here; hence why I almost never play shmups made by any other developers.. probably much to my detriment. Why do you think my opinions are so extreme and jaded?

I would like favorite and subscribe to that thread.

That's the joke.

Count me in! But I want weekly updates with screenshots and a video footage at least.

And changing the subject... I wonder if Gus will play it, he'll have it very easy to make Saya his waifu; or maybe he'd like Shuri more...

I'm waiting for THIS more than saidaioujou itself now.

Serious question:Would it be possible for you to record your runs and upload them on youtube? It would definitly enrich your thread. I'm sure Ghegs would happily add your thread to the "Threads of Excellence" if you do so~

Anyway, sounds like a fantastic idea! DO IT!

[O. Van Bruce]

Some years from now people will watch this thread and say "this is were the internet-wide leyend of Trouserplankism began"

please KAI, make a Haruhism parody image with Trouserplankism, I'm writing from a mobile phone so I can't do it

But seriously, do they EVER stop talking!?

and they just sit there with braindead smiles for a while.

[J_Taishu]

It doesn't seem that bad, just a way for people who aren't into SHMUPs to enjoy the game. I'd imagine most of us will blast through it once and spend all our time on the arcade mode.

[Skykid]

Why do you think my opinions are so extreme and jaded?

Because you suck at shmups.

[Friendly]

[Stevas]

So, I'm confused now. Should I still be sad that they aren't bringing this to the west?

So at the top of the page under the site title it says "shmups forum". Somebody please change that to say this.

No, because it's easy to get a Japanese 360 .. just not very cheap. Still cheaper than PCBs, though!

Just a somewhat unrelated question. But are microsoft able to detect that your console is modded (and then ban you for instance), if you only play original games (from another region)? I mean if you don't play pirated games.

You can only play on XBOX live using a flashed or a normal 360. Afaik, Microsoft bans people by recognizing if the DVD isn't original. The problem is that you still can't play region locked games on a flashed 360.

Now, In the case of an RGH/J-tagged 360 you will be able to play almost anthing you wish from any region via DVD (?), hard drive, usb, etc. But what happens with XBOX live? since RGH uses a CFW completely unrelated to the OFW you wouldn't be able to connect to XBOX Live.

Someone mentioned on this thread that there is a plaque for the RGH that let's you switch bettwen a normal start (OFW) and a glitched start (CFW) of the 360. That would let you play region free or your own region games on XBOX Live. This should probably be the best option.

Ah, I see. So it's a case of needing modified firmware to bypass the region check, but with the inability of using live. I wish this was as easy as wii hacking .

It's not something I really want to do, but might consider it when Microsoft shut off live in a few years. Thanks.

Awful.

Not that it's an idea entirely without potential.

[EmperorIng]

I would love a shmup where Iceman talks to me the entire time about how cool he is.

Some intelligent and meaningful dialog is the only thing neccesary for changing our minds about this idea. It doesn't even have to be "deep"...

Welp, we've only got a glimpse of the actual dialogs at SDOJ so maybe, MAYBE, we'll get something interesting or amusing. Hope is the last thing that dissapears.

Your minds, maybe. ;] I'd prefer something like this:

Pentarou: "Well fuck my old boots, Captain Schneider! They've got a doomsday machine!"
Schneider: "Eh."
