This game looks tight. Looks like NCSX is gonna have enough stock of it to last a year, too. I hope the quality matches the hype, 'cause I'm preordering it.

(For those who don't know, this is something like the sequel to Radiant Silvergun for the Saturn, arguably the best 2D side-scrolling shooter ever made.)

New release date is 9/5/02.

More info, from the Madman's Cafe (http://www.mmcafe.com)

"(Namae No Nai Heya) Treasure Co. has made an official announcement through Softbank Publishing's "Dreamcast Magazine" of their decision to release a DreamCast port of their arcade shooting game, Ikaruga.

Originally created for the Sega Naomi arcade system, Ikaruga is currently 99% complete for port to the Dreamcast. Commented by Treasure president Masahito Maekawa, a "Prototype game" is included as a bonus in the DC port, playable by beating the game without any continues.

Ikaruga for the Sega Dreamcast is scheduled for release in September 5th, priced 6800 Yen."

I found a link to a 4.5 minute video of the gameplay. I'm not understanding how the person playing is not dying; they must be a programmer or something. It's a beautiful game. Here's the link (it's quite large, dial-up users beware):

Yeah, I haven't bought any shooters for the DC yet, so I'm really looking forward to this one. It'll be the first import I've ever had to do, but I don't care.

I still did'nt get the movie for it..I'll have to get that then. Keep an eye out on this game everyone


Look, he did it again.
