That doesn't answer anything, aside from the fact that fanboys are willing to allow an item's artificial worth to rape their wallets.

Yeah, we all know Ketsui plays nothing like any Cave game ever made.

Seriously, my favorite game of all time is ESPgaluda, but even I would never buy a boss-rush demo of it for $60.

I would place Cave fanboys up there with Madden fanboys. Willing to throw money at anything with Cave's name on it.

Anyone willing to pay $60 for a demo of anything is a fanboy.

You have had like 4 pages dedicated to your inane dribble. Hm... your not even worth that much. If you don't like the game, exit the thread. Don't buy the game and go away.

Enjoy your incredibly complicated 360 mod! Cave games will never come to the states because of dipshits like you :D

I've bought the PS2 ports of ESPgaluda, Mushihime-sama, and Ibara brand-new. No Cave game has ever been localized in the US. Shin Megami Tensei: Imagine will be their first US release. And, holy shit, installing a switch is so bloody hard.

As for the "don't buy and go away" remark: It's like entering a thread about Halo or Final Fantasy 7, with the intent of telling it like it is. Good times ensue.

No, that would be Mushihime-sama.

Um... You mean "average difficulty, excellent music, okay graphics, and extremely versatile scoring"? If you want to talk terrible music and anal scoring, check out Mushihime-sama. Worst Arrange mode, too, by far.

when did the color orange become good graphics? washed out too, like a roadie's tye-dyed shirt.

be careful, the might be an aimed bullet in that enourmous slow spread pattern

I'm still WTF'ing at this. You mean "pink"? i.e. the color of bullets in Kakusei mode? Try adjusting the tint on your TV, might help.
