Wicked, thanks Major!
I have the original Silpheed for the SegaCD. But as I understood this doesnt exactly capture the tiny vessle vs gigantuan battleships atmosphere. Game Arts is a great company nevertheless.
thanks Major!
This game is hard >.< but still fun ^-^
MAJOR LEAGUE SUCKFEST!! Bad demo....
It's decent. With this and Idolm@aster apprently coming over I'm hoping Oneechanbara vorteX makes it too.
sweet, been wanting to try this out. Thanks for letting us know!
Hmm, alright. Hopefully this means that the US can finally get their hands on Brian Lara International Cricket! It's the closest thing to a decent baseball game we're likely to see around here!
I really hope the companies finally GET it and stop with this region coding nonsense. If I know Japanese (which I don't... not yet, anyway) and want to import Aquazone, let it be my prerogative. If I'm in Germany and game "X" is not permissible under law there, but I import it anyway? Let the German authorities handle that. Make the games, sell the games.
I'm really glad they managed to get a demo out for Sylpheed, I really wanted to try it first before I decide on buying/renting it. I'm a huge fan of the original, but as some other people have said it seems like they've changed the title a lot.
Sounds like an STD
Voice acting is terrible. Should just leave the Japanese audio with english subs, or give the option for either.
It always sounds "cooler" in Japanese, but what do the Japanese think of their voice actors?
We're always saying things like "OMG they gave so and so a Texas accent, WHY?" What if the Japanese actor had Japan's equivalent of a southern drawl?
Or when we say "This dialog is SO cheesy!" What if the Japanese actor's dialog is considered (and in fact, is SUPPOSED to be considered) cheesy by Japanese speakers?
It's probably not the case, but I do wonder why some dubbing studios in interviews are like "Oh yeah we NAILED it!" and then the project (whatever it is) goes out to be scorned and reviled by many (including me!).
Wow...this is a CRAZY awesome demo. I love it!
Hey, this is cool. I wish they would release more Japanese games, like Aquazone. Or at least make them region free.
i finished the japanese version of this game on easy, normal and hard, there's some nice weapons that you can buy between stages, great shooter ;)
The voice acting in Japanese is just as bad... but they're a bunch of otaku who like weird ass crap. Only in anime do people talk like that... and real life at anime cons, of course.
I'm sorry, but this game, and Square Enix both suck...
Josh: Um, the country has three large islands, of course they have a southern accent and many accents and dialects that the urbanites consider to be "less" than theirs.
I always find it amusing that the Japanese over emphasize male voices by talking low (unless its the afeminine boygirl), and female voices are those of little whiny girls. ;)
Darn it, the demo for the game finally arrives and I have to send my 360 off for repairs. Oh well it'll be there when it gets back. And just for the record, Squaresoft and Enix have never sucked, and Square-Enix certainly doesnt suck. From what i've seen Project Sylpheed is a great space shooter.
Kinda wish Square would make another shoot em up in the vein of Einhander though. That game was AMAZING.
I hope Idol is coming, Slypheed is pretty sweet, don't know if it's 40 dollars, but I'll be listening for reviews.
I did not like this demo. That is just an opinion. I don't know what I have to do to find out whether or not I'm actually firing a gun properly, and damaging whatever I'm supposed to damage, but... I'm just saying I can't see myself getting this game and playing it for any length of time before I throw a fairly good wireless controller against a friggin' wall.
dreamlust, just because a company doesn't make your kind of game doesn't mean they suck.
otherwise everytime anything halo was posted on here i'd talk about bungie sucking, but let's face it, they really don't.
About time a _NEW_ and modern 3-D space combat shooter is coming out. I enjoyed the demo. Its fast paced, arcade-like, and simple. It also strays away from the FPS mainstream games. =)
And with Mass Effect, Too Human, and Virtua Fighter 5... etc. releasing this summer, I'm happy I own an Xbox 360.
Sweet! I've been wanting to play this as I like, and still have Silpheed for the Mega CD to.
LOL! Yeah pimp arm is EXACTLY what I meant. ;)
George where are you
