[SP3RRFEUER]

Just have a look on their official website... It's full of scanlines

Scanlines are inherent in the display itself. If you want scanlines, play on a CRT

[brentsg]

I think I have 11 CRTs around the house unless I'm forgetting something.

[Plasmo]

I have 12

[brentsg]

I have 12

Don't make me count my Vectrex..

[jonny5]

i have the xm29.....got rid of all my old crt monitors a few years ago, and gave away my old crt TV when i moved.....

really....if you like to play older consoles or stuff that outputs low-res signals/rgb, you owe it to yourself to pick up a suitable CRT....

PVM's are fairly common...you see them come up fairly often on craigslist and the like....

they arent that big

[evil_ash_xero]

Not too surprising, really.
Not a shit-ton of new modes, no redrawn graphics-
thats stuff that matters for them, not if the actual game is any good.
Yeah and don't forget that Espgafutari II.5s additional arrange/novice modes are rather easy.

I was figuring it was going to get a bit of a harsh review due to everyone being spoiled by the last 3 Cave releases extras and features.

I haven't played this, but there's no freaking way this game is a 5 or 6.

Xbox 360 Monthly seems more fair. Same score it gave Futari.

That being said, I find it kind of weird how the Japanese mags underrates these shmups, while sites like NTSC-UK, Edge, and whatnot, are more understanding of the genre, and where to rate these games. I thought the Japanese appreciated shmups more....

However, I could really be changing my tune when DS comes out, and a bunch of bonehead reviewers give it low scores.

Don't forget the xRGB2 unit or whatever you'd need to scale the 360's output down.

You will need an Emotia on the mix to force the video out to be 240p.

It would be a lot cheaper to just use RGB/component leads.

[dmauro]

360 + CRT != scanlines. Not without some magic in between.

[ChurchOfSolipsism]

So, can anyone tell me if Play Asia sends new games away on the day of their release or do they send them away a couple of days before so that you get it roughly on/ soon after release day?

[Jockel]

They usually ship it on the release day :/

[Kiken]

According to NCSX, the game is already shipping (DOJ BLEX shipped early too).

[Jockel]

orly? Hot shit!

[AKRATEN]

[dmauro]

Before you get too excited:

A supplier in Tokyo received a batch of X360 Ketsui Kizuna Jigoku Tachi Extra last night and shipped an allocation of the game to us. We should be able to clear roughly 3/4 of our reservations for the limited edition of the game and roughly 1/8 of our reservations of the regular edition. They received a lot more of the LE than the RE. The remainder of our shipments should arrive on Tuesday or Wednesday of next week since most of our Japanese vendors did not receive their copies of Ketsui yet.

Few, man, this shit is tuff as nails. like old school Cave DOJ-tuff... have you played this game before or are you just really good at shooters?

"Magic" == a cable. Is there "magic" between the PCB's in my cab and the CRT? Again:

Scanlines are inherent in the [CRT] itself.

360 + CRT != scanlines AS MONSTER THICK AS I WANT THEM TO BE. Not without some magic in between.

Fixed.

Monster scanlines? I prefer the ones on my NANAO MS9's. They are rad.

I hope no one here cares what the ratings were in famitsu. Heck, the lower the scores the better, just means is nails hard, old school carnage, and above their head! Basically what Jockel said.

rEaLly?

Yes, since the game probably deserves a 8-10 look at it this way

-1 point for not having lolis
-1 point for being vomit inducing difficult
-1 point for not being modernized

Now if you ask me all those negatives are really strengths, thus lower mainstream Japanese review is better.

Playing an xbox 360 on a crt does not give you scanlines... unfortunately.

[Elixir]

-1 point for being a 2D shmup.
-1 point for being retail and not XBLA.
-1 point for 5pb's "lack of appreciation of Famitsu"
-1 for being able to complete the game in under an hour.
