IGS PGM 'Demon Front' question

Hi all! I just bought myself a copy of 'Demon Front' for my PGM system and have played it through a few times already and noticed that there are some secret areas and different paths to take through levels (lol just like Metal Slug 3!! ) and wondered if anyone knows of any detailed walkthroughs and the like on the net for this game?

Any help would be great, as it seems pretty hard to get info for PGM games!

Cheers!

Had a chance to watch this game a bit at Mak Japan (in Akihabara) last week. Looks like it's got some good Metal Slug appeal to it, but I decided to hold off a bit til the price comes down a bit more. If I don't get it in the meantime, I'll probably pick it up at the end of the year when I go back to Japan. What are your impressions/opinions of the game? (You're right -- I haven't seen too many PGM owners, either ).

Very good game! I've played through it a couple of times over at Verbatum's place(lucky bastard) And one thing that I can tell you is that the more secret areas that you find the closer to fighting the "true" form of the last boss you get. But I cant tell you where they are Cause we happened on to the ones we found by accident.

You really have to see this game if you ever get the chance, its amazing. There is just so much animation going on at one time to see all of it. Its one of those games that you dont blink when your playing or you'll miss something. Leveling up the gun and your framiliar is hard! But then again the whole game is.

Here's some pics. I know the quality is poor, but it's better than nothing.

I just got my kit including a motherboard, all like freaking new from Dougdesensi for $180 shipped to Australia!!!! It is soooooo worth it, and I think he may have more copies. Send him a PM if ya can spare the cash, great guy to deal with! The thing I've found with 'Demon front' is, straight away I started playing it like Metal Slug, but in time ya realise that it is in fact a different game in more ways than are initially apparent and you gradually change the way you play it and get killed a hell of a lot less One things for sure though, the PGM has a tough hardware set with heaps of punch, and it's clear when you're in the thick of things and there’s almost no slowdown at all. This is quite strange after being so used to the Neo struggling at times. Amongst other things I guess it's the 20MHz MC68k CPU versus the Neo's 12MHz.

One other thing that really impressed me right away is that the PGM's horizontal resolution is a nice high 448 pixels compared to the standard 320 of most standard res games giving it noticeably higher level of detail in things like blades of grass and roots of trees. You'll notice this if ya take a peek at Demon Front particularly.

On a serious note though, there are those that just compare it to Metal Slug and if it doesn’t do what MS does for them, they don’t give it another chance. It is a great game, very polished and well worth a look. Being a bit of a MS clone isn’t necessarily a bad thing, especially done this well!

I played the game at GolfLand a year or so back... it was fun, love to play it again, but it is no longer there (camelot now a days)...

it looks verry nice, and with euro/dollar ratio it s interesting...
but i don t have any supergun or similar to play it with...

too bad >.< that is the kind of games we ll never see ported and never find in french arcades...
