Ordered me a copy today, along with Radilgy. I won't get to play it until Monday, though, since I'll be on a business trip...

Better be good!

Are you using some sort of PS2 to JAMMA converter?

I usually play right through till the end with a shooter just to get an idea of what I'm up against in the harder levels

and DAMN

no wait:

mutha fuckin' DAMN!!!

this game is going to be hard as fuck

on a side note, I like the arange mode more because of the selectable weapons

What the fuck? You mean arrange mode is actually black label? If so, I'll eat my hat.

yes it is

forget about the hat

I want to see you beat an "old school and easy" game like Battle Garegga on the highest rank

I love Battle Garegga more than I should. Perhaps that's why I have a soft spot for future clones like Ibara.

cool

it's the Black Label in arranged from what I've read (I never played the arcade itinerations)

and you only get one credit

but if you're that serious about shmups, then another credit doesn't matter anyway

I'm really anxious to get your opinion on this one Spike. It will determine whether I purchase it or not. hehe

I should have it monday or tuesday. I have played the PCB a few times but I had to do so without sound...

From those few times it seemed cool, I dont like Garegga that much but there are clear similarities but luckily quite a few differences from it that are to my liking.

I'll let you know how it looks too, I'm hoping it doesnt look like the mushi port.

Meh, at least they split the threads. I just skip the stupid posts and read the intersting ones.

EDIT: Or you mean pixeljunkie?

Man,y'all need to get in on this Ibara shit.

How can you resist the Raizing/Cave collabo?

I'm really diggin' Ibara,even though I am not too fond of 'Garegga (Raizing,for that matter),myself.
