My copy arrived last night, so tonight I will be playing some Aero Fighters 2, too. I've always loved the game. I can't wait to get off work.SNKorSWM said:Playing Aero Fighters 2.
I know that pretty much three of us actually give a shit, but Otomedius Excelent was supposed to ship today after all the delays. I got the special edition on Amazon that says it's sold out. I pre-ordered in May, so hopefully I don't get screwed over. It says that it should come in from the 8th to the 15th on my order form. The normal edition has "Shipping in 1 to 3 Months" as the description on it.
Meanwhile I hear that Gamestop had a preorder bonus were you'd get the normal Vic Viper ship rather then an anime girl? Any truth to that? You'd think that buying the collectors edition would have that included, but oh boy, I get a pillowcase instead. I'd take a normal Vic Viper or Lord British ship over a high pitched anime girl any day of the week.
Still hasn't shipped for me. How much you wanna bet I'll get Ultimate Marvel 3 before this?
It's not like Cotton or Twinkle Star where their magical girls on brooms or other things, like the two nurses on a giant needle, it's like Konami didn't think a real Gradius game would sell so they put some moe in to get some extra sales from people that are into it.
Played some Blazing Star yesterday. Can only ever get to stage 3 wether im playing for points or survival? Really frustrating. That level 2 boss always robs me of a couple of lives...
On GameStop's site they have it listed as November 8th. I figured I'd go with Amazon since they'd get more then going to Gamestop where they'd only get two or three copies of the game, like they do with most niche games. I heard that all the Vic Viper skin does is make the main character's dress darker, so it doesn't remove the moe with a normal ship. I'm glad it's a new Gradius game but I'm sick of the flavor of the month anime girl crap. It's not like Cotton or Twinkle Star where their magical girls on brooms or other things, like the two nurses on a giant needle, it's like Konami didn't think a real Gradius game would sell so they put some moe in to get some extra sales from people that are into it.
No denying that, Konami definitely created this series to get on that wagon to boost the sales (they are a business at the end of the day and cash is king). BUT, I will say this, besides the load screens, the anime-like intro & end song (which you can skip), it's not laid on all that thick, like they aren't forcing on a bunch of shots mid-stage of the girls or anything like that. Once you get into the core of the game itself, it's basically just the Gradius/Salamander/Xexex that you've known and love this whole time.
Cave and Raizing have taken my innocence and ruined me for life...
I hear ya. You run any of the cave/raizing stgs on your xrombox w/ my setting suggestions yet?
Chunky, leggo-y, sprite *bliss*. CoinOPs ignite & fbaxpro especially sweet w/ the 720p.
