    There are enough extras to warrant buying it again if that isn't enough motovation. Treasure promised us Radient Silvergun if we buy us some Ikaruga.

    Exactly, works also with DC/GC versions. But you're right, its only fun for 5 minutes, Ikaruga is a shooter that was made for vertical gameplay and thats it.

    Who would have thought a video game would have such deep and meaningful thinking?

    Digital downloads are like throwing your money away. I'll stick to my dc copy.

    As Ikagura did get released in the west, it showing up on xbox live is nice but if you have it on say Gamecube or Dreamcast then it's not really a must have purchase.

    As for RS on the Xbox 360, I think there is more chance of a Bill Gates strip poker game appearing first...

    Lack of punctuation?

    Uh... where? The only time they ever commented on RS on 360 was when they said:
    "Well, thats a nice idea, but it'd be a lot of work, and we'd rather make new games than port another one."


    Seriously, porting Ikaruga DELAYED their NEW game. I would much rather they work on a NEW 2D shooter for the 360 than port games I already own.

    not really. RS wouldn't look too good if beefed up, I think they'd have to remake it all over.

    It's very nice looking in HD, and I'm guessing it's cheaper on the 360 then on GC/DC. sucks it's digital, but whatever. I didn't buy it because I've played it enough and don't wanna spend 10 bucks right now. I love these HD rereleases though, like Rez.

    Fuck yes, then you have something to add to your Hentai game collection!

    I downloaded the demo, but I'll stick with my DC copy. At least with that I can use my arcade sticks I have without having to buy another controller.

    I stick with Assembler's opinion, paying money for Downloads equals wasting it.
    I have Ikaruga for GC and DC and both versions have lovely features (also both have exclusives, if only gameplay-wise) on their own.

    And as jp. stated already, there's no Radiant Silvergun in sight. I wouldn't download it either, wheres the point in downloading a 32 bit game that has been scaled up to 1080p? There's none I think.


    /EDIT
    Are there slowdowns in the XBLA version?

    Me thinks it was taken way out of context or losing something in translation... as there is no Japanese or even a quote.

    PhrequincyMCXVII : I think not, not enough cute drawn anime girlies. :p

    Erm... what he actually said was:
    "Its a nice idea, but it would take a lot of work, and while its a nice idea, it would take a lot of work for us to be happy with it."

    Also, I reiterate:
    New shooter from Treasure >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> another remake/port.

    New games >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> remakes/ports.

    Now what about TEH slowdowns? They are important.
