Oh my. I just played an as far as I know yet unannounced title that is ****ing awesome. I don't want arne to stab me in my face while I sleep so I won't give it away, but lets just say that if you're yearning for a hardcore oldschool experience with next-gen sensibilites (ie a billion lighting and particle effects on screen at once) you'll be going nuts when this game drops.

And it's made in Japan, so it isn't some half-assed "Hey, I played one of them thar shooters on Dreamcast once, let's make one of those!"-type thing like Aegis Wing was.

PoP just got dethroned as the most awesomely awesomest upcoming XBLA game for sure.

Spoiler

No, it's not Ikaruga and it's not by Treasure. Calm down.

Cave shooter?

 

[aku:jiki]

Oh, man, you have me super excited now! I know that you can't tell us the game, but can you tell us if it's as good as Geometry Wars?

Well, I don't even think Geometry Wars is the best double-stick shooter on XBLA, so I'm not one to judge.

This game seems a hell of a lot harder than GW, though. I'm pretty decent at this type of game, and I got absolutely ****ing crushed on the second level, with no chance of escape. It was awesome.

Cave shooter?

No.

Ikari Warriors please.

God yes, I've been asking for this since day 1 of XBLA. And Guerilla War too.

Just to update the thread here. The PSP action puzzler Exit is headed to XBLA according to this week's Famitsu (thanks Jonnyram!) at 800 points this Summer. It consists of 220 stages.

(Better make it a nice even 4.)

 

[Wario64]

Nice, 220 stages. And only $10. PSP version had what, 100 stages plus 100 free downloadable stages? And that was like $30 at least

 

[Dr_Cogent]

Do they have to port the shitty arcade games too? The last two arcade releases are uber lame.

Where's my Xenophobe?

Another puzzle game? Excellent.

I believe there are costs associated with processing credit card payments - why should MS incur those for millions of low value transactions?

very true. Credit card transactions cost for a low end dealer(ie not a supermarket, drug store, walmart) 35 cents plus 8% of the total. reason why the dollartree for the longest time was doing an 8 item purchase minimal to use credit card or 98 cents clearance center charged an extra .25 cents per purchase or my local gas station charges an extra .75 cents on purchase smaller than $20 buck if using a CC.

New Space Giraffe movie (275mb) showing the first nine levels and a bonus round. Quality is decent enough to see Allard.

I love how both reviews are hugely contradictive. They say that it's impossible to beat, but also that it's too short. How the hell does that work out? If they haven't beaten it, they can't possibly be disappointed by the length! Oh well.

 

[dejay]

I refuse to download any more Space Giraffe movies on account of me not knowing what the hell is going on in any of them. I'll wait until I play the demo before I enjoy those acid-flashback inducing graphics again

Not to derail, but transaction minimums and services fees are violations of merchant agreements.

Sure, doesn't stop everyone from doing it though. Many mom and pop stores just can't survive if everyone used credit cards to buy shit from them, the retail line is competitive enough as it is.

More Prince of Persia Classic stuff as GameVideos.com has a new video uploaded showcasing the first level of the game. Ah the memories of it all. Oh and it appears they have another Prince of Persia video of recent vintage entitled storage.

Maybe it's because I'm not stoned, but I don't get the appeal of Space Giraffe. There's people clamoring for it on here and I have no idea why.

After watching that video I wont even download the demo. It looked cool when I couldn't figure out what was going on, but thats just like you're forced into a line and you shoot at space then wait until the shape thingies come up to attack you and move towards them and shit explodes. Looks like trash.

Wow, thats one off the list for me. Can't believe it looks that bad during gameplay.

I'm so happy right now. I hope the whole Streets of Rage series gets ported.

So if it's Japanese, and it's not a Cave or Treasure shooter, it has to be G-Rev right?

Okay so, G-Rev shooter on XBLA confirmed... I guess Senkou did well for them. Or maybe it was those costumesand gamerpics. :lol

Hey, I just thought about it some more. Wouldn't it be really disappointing if he's just talking about Every Extend Extra XBLA? that game has already been announced and we've seen pics. Maybe we're all getting hyped up over nothing here. :lol

SNK should not be allowed to release any XBLA titles until they give us SamSho2.
