And Treasure's new shmup is coming to... *drum roll*

[bluberry]

Cool news, now I can have sweet FPS games and shooters all on one sys--

*hides PC*

[jp]

But hey, lovely pre-season console war thingy you guys got goin'. Should be an interesting season.

A lot of retro lovers just suck at finding new good games. Don't worry, in 10 years we'll go over the same damn thing, how the ps2 has 400 must have titles and the newest ones have nothing.

[bluberry]

It takes time for people to appreciate the developing mastery exhibited by titles such as Medal of Honor XXIV: The Antarctic Campaign.

Haha, ST Dragon.

I think new games suck at being good. I'm not a "retro lover."

And you just proved my point.

WHERE AM I? I can't see past GTA and news hype! I HATE GTA!

haha I was just being facetious, there's lots of good 3D stuff out there. Like GunValkyrie, and Devil May Cry! And for every MoH and GTA there's at least two Dangerous Seeds.

[sethsez]

No dammit, gaming used to be a land of magic and pixie dust and no bad games were ever made and nothing was ever licensed unless it ruled and any memories of bad games you might have are just a hallucination.

Though I'm not sure I'd stick GTA in with Dangerous Seed. GTA at least tries to be good and have a unique identity. And there was one good MoH game, many eons ago.

Dawn of the dead is badass.

Nah, if it's strictly a home console developed game, it'll probably be some f'd up experimental game like Bangaioh. If it's an arcade port, it'll be a port of their upcoming Type-X arcade shmup (which would make the most sense), whatever that is.

Bangaio.. Fucked up.... Wash your mouth out with soap and water...

But fuck Microsoft and their FPS only consoles.

Whoa buddy I would care about your problem but to quote a shmup poster "I play games not systems." Just buy an xbox360 if it bothers you so much. It's not like we actually know anything about the PS3 lineup and good luck playing a shmup on the revolution.

The PS3 pad is based on an Old PS1 3rd Party Controller.

I saw it the other day...it was freakin huge.

I can't wait for the Treasure 360 shooter. Most of their games are ported here nowadays.

[ST Dragon]

Is treausre also going to make shooter for the PS-3 & Revolution, or have they signed with microsoft for good?

[Valgar]

Treasure does whatever the hell they want.

[ST Dragon]

Well, for one thing, history has shown, that they tend to stick to one console at a time... Up to the release of PS-2, GC & X-Box.

They did develop Silpheed 2 for the PS-2 & Ikaruga for the Cube... But, Did they make any other games for the X-Box for that matter?

Well this gen they stuck to three consoles if you count the GC Ikaruga port, PS2 Gradius V, and various GBA games.

Anyways, I don't see why this is news for IGN, wasn't this stated by them a week ago at TGS? And I don't care what console Treasure is on, I will get it. I just want Orta backward compatibile on the system, a good Halo sequel and I will be happy.

[Dylan1CC]

But, after having a closer look of the Revolution Joypad pics, I can't seem to spot the "Y" & "X" buttons for the SNES?

How are you supposed to play Super Mario World or Axelay without those 2 buttons?

I think every article on the Revolution controller needs to have the following:

THE REVOLUTION CONTROLLER CAN PLUG INTO OTHER SHELLS TO ADD BUTTONS OR FEATURES, AND THE SYSTEM ITSELF ALSO SUPPORTS GAMECUBE CONTROLLERS

on the top in big red letters.

No kidding. It's like people are reading the oldest possible info on the controller that they can find.

In 10 years we won't even have consoles in the traditional sense; it'll all be simulated movements in virtual environments.

Exactly, JP was being sarcastic.

And as far as this "I play games not systems" nonsense goes, well then, I guess since I need a set of wheels I can just drive a car and not make payments on it, live in a house and do the same, and refuse to pay taxes while demanding government services. It's the exact same argument.

It's called discussing. If you all can tell me that you have the right to pre-judge a game before it even comes out, or nitpick the hell out of every shmup collection that comes out, then I can darn well pre-judge a console, or at the very least it's design, thank you very much.

puff puff give, Dave. Your other post about wheels and stuff just further confirmed my theory that you post while high on something.

Why do you all find this so hard to believe when there's already a patent out on a movement simulation device??

Imagine how totally rocking a VR Chaos Legion would be! I'd pre-order seventeen copies this instant.

Just like we'd all have video phones by now? Of course, then we found out that people don't want to look at each other while they're talking on the phone, so even though they're possible nobody wants them anyway.

Simulated movement isn't nearly as convenient as a hand-held controller, so no, we're not going to have a holodeck for gaming even if we get the technology. Joe Fatass isn't going to buy Madden if he has to exert a lot of energy to play it.

Where did I say that was any more justified than this? Don't put words in my mouth, since I never said I "have the right to pre-judge a game before it even comes out" or implied it.

And if someone says "thing A is stupid" then I have the right to say "judging thing A with no information whatever is stupid" thank you very much.

And as far as this "I play games not systems" nonsense goes, well then, I guess since I need a set of wheels I can just drive a car and not make payments on it, live in a house and do the same, and refuse to pay taxes while demanding government services. It's the exact same argument.

...what?

Um... here's a shot in the dark. You think "I play games, not systems" has something to do with piracy, right? That's about all I can get from this comment.

Why do you all find this so hard to believe when there's already a patent out on a movement simulation device??

Shit gets patented all the time. If everything that got patented wound up being THE FUTURE OF VIDEOGAMES then we'd have one fucked-up hobby.
