Okay, this is just from my friend in JAPAN. He says the new DEMON FRONT game on the igs pgm system is better than slug 4. Demon Front is only in the beta testing stages and he just sent me some nice video footage. From the looks of the footage THIS GAME LOOKS FUCKIN INCREDIBLE. Four characters to choose from.Everything from the animation to the some of the weapons are a TOTAL rip off of metal slug 4..but only BETTER. The art syle is kinda bizzarre looking. This game uses three buttons. You have this special little satellite thing that hovers near you. IF you press down on the button and leave it down, the special satellite attack the enemies in front of you. When you jump, you can press it again to float in the air. The "C" button gives you this force field charge and whats cool is that it also has a combo meter that shows how many enemies you can kill in a row just like the combo systems in alot of shooter games. So far from the video, graphics look way better than slug4. As for gameplay, my friend in Japan said it was top notch.

I personally will buy both games regardless. You can be the judge when the video is uploaded next week. I'll keep you posted.

Alright to hold you over until I upload the video footage. Here are some pics for you to drool over. ohh the 2d beauty...

The question is how much and where do we get it. IGS doesnt sell to the public. Coinopexpress and Cosmic Amusment are the only places ive seen other than ebay that sells the PGM or its games.

You can get IGS to sell to you directly. Go to their site and ask.

With these two pictures we can't say a lot of things. The second one can make us thing that the game is more beautiful than MS4 but there are so many aspects to judge a game that we can't say anything. Better wait for a video.

P.S: It's strange that magazines like Arcadia didn't speak about the game. Perhaps it will be the case in the next issue.

YEAH LIKE I SAID, BE READY FOR THE VIDEO AND SHIT IN YOUR PANTS ROBERT.

MORE INFO ON GAME: CHARACTERS CAN LEVEL UP AND BOTH PLAYERS CAN ACTIVATE A SUPER MOVE THAT WIPES OUT THE ENEMIES IF BOTH PLAYERS CHARGE AT THE SAME TIME.

TONS OF ENEMIES.. ZERO!! SLOWDOWN.

I agree, I can’t really judge it without seeing it in motion. It looks nice but not as “artsy” as the Metal Slug series. I’ll bit my tongue until I see a video.

Neogeoholic,
you're acting like me when I discovered Ikaruga on the sega offical website. No one seems to know the game, but I was sure that it would be a masterpiece. Time make me right and I hope that's the same case with you.

hey my friend robert, I am only taking the words of my friend who recorded the footage for me. He doesn't bullshit around. his favorite game WAS slug 4. So I must say that this game is going to be damn good.

Wait for the video Robert and see for yourself. you won't be dissappointed

This Game will Rule i hate to say that it is a Metal slug Contra type game but it will blow you away in every aspect when you see the vids the truth will be told.Only if it was a MVS game i think it would be more welcome.

For starters:

IGS homepage <a href="http://www.igs.com.tw/" target="_blank">http://www.igs.com.tw/</a>

IGS sales page <a href="http://www.igs.com/tw/www/en/sales.html" target="_blank">http://www.igs.com/tw/www/en/sales.html</a>


IGS only does business through T/T which is a bank wire transfer. International wire transfers usually cost around $30.00 just to send.

If you can purchase directly here in the U.S. that is the best way to go about getting one, but my contact (Eduardo) will sell to you direct.
