YES!!!!!

I was sort of excited until I saw the screens. It looks like a ton of other generic modern shooters. I was hoping for a horizontal scroller, too. Hopefully it plays better than it looks.
Hey, new shmup. Neat.
I'll definitely buy this. MS really needs to release a controller with a D-pad that doesn't suck ass though.
On one hand, this is direct-to-XBLA. On the other, SNK might make a decent shooter. There's really no precedent. I'm just hoping that since they're still primarily an arcade developer, they have a better sense of how a shooter should work.
We'll see. The SnS look of the game is pretty funny though.
and the key to avoiding bad 360 pads is to do it up right and get a stick anyway
ESParade it looks like.
It looks more like SnS 2/3 than ESPRaDe.
Remember Xevious 3D/g+?

Best of all is the cheat which transforms the Solvalou in either Paul or Heihachi of Tekken fame. They were even given their own hilarious ending FMV.
This looks atrocious.
Those pads suck ass from most people I've talked to, plus they're way over priced now if you can find them. I got my 360 in November and the pad still sucks. I'm pretty sure the rumor that they fixed the D-pads has been debunked on a few sites. MS is a bunch of A-holes for having USB ports but not letting any USB controller work on their system. Then I could at least use my Saturn USB pad which has a perfect D-pad.
Most people you talk to are fucking retarded, confirmed.
This sounds odd, but sometimes that makes for a cool game in the end. Looks like SNK is taking Namco's Paul/Heihachi in Xevious 3D/G idea and running all the way with it. These screen shots don't really tell enough IMO. Hopefully SNK has some members of the Blazing Star team on board so this turns out decent.
Fuck Microsoft's CRM (Controller Restriction Management) on the 360. They can make enough royalties on the games. Let's hope our 360 controllers aren't CRMed out of their next system- especially the $150+ SFIV TE sticks, force feedback wheels, etc.
MS will do the same shit with every generation from now on. It really sucks, and we will have to buy new peripherals every generation with this BS practice.
I rather like the fight pad d-pad, I use it for playing games on the genny collection.
But if you're going to play shmups you really need to get a good stick.
It kind of looks like shikigami no shiro. I'll wait to look on youtube for vid play, besides; shmup are always fun.
More like a Beats of Rage remix of Shikigami, damn those characters are big.
I'm surprised at how many people feel this way. You'd think it's impossible to love R-Type and DoDonPachi at the same time.Quote:
Yeah, it's pretty meh to me. I'm sick of the whole bullet death shooter. Give me a old school shmup any day.
And one's really no more hectic than the other, either.
Bullet Hell shooters are fun and all, but outside of Cave most companies don't really do them very well.
What next, a manic Psycho Soldier remake?
I'm interested to see how the story goes...if there is one.
Athena's Shining Crystal Bit would make a good bomber attack. She doesn't really seem to be too odd of a character choice for this one, but it'll be interesting to see how they rework Kyo. His "Kurai... YAGARE!" quote needs to be in for one of his special attacks.
I'll bet the story isn't canon. I could see the story taking place in Kyo's dream, with Yuki yelling "Kyo! Wake up!" in some really hilarious ending that parodies one from Darius II.
Bring on a Psycho Soldier HD, especially since KOF XII sprites for Athena & Kensou exist. Use their KOF'96 Neo-CD arranged theme as one of the tracks. Maybe even give Ikari Warriors a similar treatment, making it a bit more manic and adding in some extra weapons like an RPG. The right stick could be used for 360 degree aiming as in Omega 5.
Shock Troopers 3 imo
And where the fuck are Windjammers and Twinklestar Sprites on XBLA?
Agreed, though I am not sure who owns the rights to those.
Blazing Star for the mother fucking win. Its the only reason (besides maybe Shock Troopers and Garou) that I really, REALLY wish I had a NeoGeo.
Also those two screens are not impressive so far.
You mean, you don't miss Captain Tomaday?
I'd like a "King of the Monsters 3", personally.
I take not mentioning Baseball Stars 2 as a personal insult.
New Play Control Super Metroid imo.
Nobody mentioned Baseball Stars 2 yet? Shiiiit.
Incidentally, does Konami still have the rights to Base Wars? They really need to get upon that shit.
Base Wars was awesome.
It was good stuff. I don't see why Konami wouldn't still own it. I doubt they'll make another one but someone's bound to make another robot baseball game eventually.
That game never leaves my 4-Slot.
I love the ideas of a HD remake of Ikari Warriors, A new Shock Troopers, and a new King of the Monsters. One of the reasons I really enjoyed NBC was the King of the Monsters love it contained. Both the stage and the game's version of Cyber Woo kicked ass!
I started drooling just thinking about a new installment. :lol:
This actually looks pretty good.
I am pretty surprised. Still...KOF? lawl
Not like KOF is a big draw. I am sure I will get it though
Any game will look better with a bald man's head as decor.
This would be more interesting if you were playing as that talking chair from Pee Wee.
No it wouldn't
Hey, you wanna stare at dude ass for the duration of a game, that's your thing.
Huh.
Yeller is Asian?
It makes so much sense now! Jesus Christ I feel stupid!
You thought "Yellow Dog" was a JOKE?
The "K.O." at the end was a nice touch. My friends and I were laughing at that.
Iori, Kula, Terry, and Mai are confirmed characters.
Here's Mai in action.
Shikigami no Shiro 4
This is the absolutely the dumbest looking game.
I just really don't know about living in a universe where a KOF-based shooter actually makes enough sense to develop and release.
It's still going to be better than the movie.
God damn it. :lol:
SNK is releasing a port of KOF:SS on PSP, renamed Neo-Geo Heroes: Ultimate Shooting. Rimururu & Marco are two of the added playable characters. Alpha Mission, Samurai Shodown, Last Blade, and Metal Slug are now represented.
Magic Box - pics
Someone did a doujin KOF:SS using Mugen. :lol: This one looks like Skystage on LSD.
