I think I remember reading about it on this forum that a lot of Capcom at the time hated the game's existence as it was being made, but couldn't do anything about it because Mikami believed so strongly in the project to keep protecting it from their influence. The man is a goddamned saint for giving Suda everything he needed, even if it made no financial sense whatsoever.
i just ripped this a couple weeks ago because while I always liked it, I never finished it on Gamecube and was curious to see how it would run on Dolphin and finally beat it.
I kinda want to get one of those mayflash Gamecube usb adapters now.
I've had this game for the longest time in GameCube and have yet to play it. My backlog is massive. This thread though is giving me the itch to play it though.
it sold 3 copies. It would be a lot more appreciated nowadays though. Most discussions about it around launch amounted to little more than "LOL GAME IS WEIRD"

Finished the first chapter tonight, the game is every bit as engaging as I remember. I can't wait to go through more this weekend and reexperience the awesome boss battles that are still to come.

Not here on GAF, many of us loved the game when it released. A ton of people didn't aporeciate it and were let down that to them the game was (I'm paraphrasing here) "just a very basic on rail light-gun shooter sans the most important and fun part: the lightgun itself"
It did sell like shit tho.

I really enjoyed this game but I have a hard time really explaining why. It certainly wasn't the gameplay and it's not as though I really understand the plot, honestly. Hard to believe it was 10 years ago, though. I remember it much more vividly than games I beat a year ago.
I hate coming into these threads and finding out games that aren't particularly rare are jacked way up in price. I almost feel guilty for grabbing my GameCube copy out of a grocery store bargain bin. (Not too guilty though!)
With the help of gamefaqs I managed to finally find the 12th Ulmeyda figure. Was in a house, hidden in a blood soaked crack in the wall which you had to absorb using KAEDE's power.
Not suprised I never found it before.
Got to the Ulmeyda boss fight. Going to tackle that tonight over some beers.
My strategy for Killer8 was to abuse the hell out of the fact that Kevin's invisibility allowed him to run through Smiles. Makes stuff like that one stretch of highway in Cloudman and the maze in Alter Ego much more bearable.
I remember rushing out to get my GameCube copy on release day because I heard rumors there was a chance it was going to get pulled from shelves because of the sexual content.
Probably the first game that well and truly mind fucked me. I can't believe it's ten years old already. The game still looks awesome too. Rave On has been my phone ringtone for as long as I can remember.
Probably the game I miss the most since hocking off my GameCube. There's a PS2 at my girlfriend's place, maybe I should see if I can find myself a copy there. Ten year anniversary sounds like the perfect time for a re-release.
I remember when Killer7 was THE spooby game to play at sleepovers at my friend's house. Our promise to beat this game wavered when we heard the screaming in Garcian's house.
Basically this was us whenever someone would bring up beating K7
One of my favorite titles. There's just nothing else I played that was quite like it. The storytelling, aesthetic, music, and gameplay all appealed to me. It's not the most pleasant game to play, but it more than makes up for it with everything else.
As much as I like the game, it's not the kind of game I'd want to pump up the difficulty on and see what happens when the gameplay is pushed harder. There's already some terrible spawns in normal mode.
Hey guys, just wanted to post this tumblr page I created, where I'll be posting updates on a project I'm working on:
handinkiller7.tumblr.com
I'm designing and editing a version of Hand in Killer7 intended for print, and when done, I'll be sharing the file so that anyone can print and bind his own version of it. I'll also be posting a MOBI file por anyone interested on reading it on a Kindle.
