I see your dream Takumi Collection won't have a certain other crappy manic shooter from a few years ago...
No, no, we'll be doing no raiding on the night in this dream... :wink:

Welcome Back, 8 1/2!

G-rev is nearing completion os Senko no Ronde, a fighting game with too many shmup elements to be ignored. Click Stick's site has the lowdown along with a couple of vids.

Also, Skonec(???) is working on a vertical shooter HOMURA. No idea where to find anything about it, though. There was a video of stage one somewhere...

Of course if the game's fun it doesn't matter...like I said I was kinda being sarcastic.



To be honest, I didn't know if Generations was in TATE...even in the arcade.
What exactly is "Generations" anyway then?
I figured it was some sort of "collection/compilation" of sorts. (like the current Psikyo ones)

No it's not a compilation. It's the third title in the series and the first one to have tate (in the arcades at least).
