And could we do this later tonight? I'm at work and don't have access to AIM until I get home.
EDIT: Since you don't need it, could you delete my e-mail address from your quote? Thanks. ;)

"Treasure has officially announced a Dreamcast port of the Naomi arcade shooting game Ikaruga. The Dreamcast port will feature a new bonus "Prototype game", which can be unlocked by finishing the game without using continues. Ikaruga is scheduled for release in Japan on September 5, for 6800 yen. The Dreamcast port is already 99% completed."
Yeah, well... there ya go. Take it as you will.

This being a JP release, it will still be released, just like that game.Quote:

There's no chance in hell it'll come here though, with Sega pulling the plug on 3rd party support and all.
so all this fucking hype is for a Japanese release?? :lol:
I'm sorry, but did you actually think that another DC game was going to be released in NA? Not bloody likely.

Well, I think it's established by now that the news is legit. The amount of Japanese evidence is overwhelming with 2 major magazines publishing it, an interview with Maegawa in one, etc etc.Quote:

Taken from Magic Box:
Though the issue I wanted to discuss was that you used Magic Box as your source of proof... Magic Box is one of the best and worst thief-gaming sites on the web. It's one of the best because they steal from all sorts of sources. They take their news from American, Chinese, Korean and Japanese sites AFAICT, which generally means they cover more ground than any one site. Not always true, but they generally talk about the things I want to hear about.
On the other hand, they are the crappiest because they can't translate any language correctly, nor is their English writing all that great either. It's pretty darn evident they don't know any Japanese and are perhaps running stories through babelfish or something. It's amazing how many glaring errors that I can spot, even without reading the original Japanese press release they steal from. And Magic Box, since they're a thief site, will take any story be it rumor or fact. How about the time they said Sakura Taisen 4 would have 20 hours of anime (*lol* not even a 20 hour game)? Don't forget they also said that Ikaruga was to be released on 5/30 for the DC and the PS2 port is coming later. And on the journalism side of things, when they steal, they rarely give credit to their newssource, which means they're not giving people what they're due, AND that they can pull stories off their anus.
Don't get me wrong, I look at Magic Box daily. It's a great one-stop site with info that I generally like to read. But anything they say is awfully suspect. And I hope people will realize what they are.
Yeah, it was released in not one but two major markets. :evil:Quote:

Anybody have a list of links to some replay videos and/or best clips? I'm at work and don't have time to sift through the thread at the moment.
this, i've always accepted as obvious.. all magic box is is simply a news relay site.. they won't do any journalism or research work themselves, they'll find news from other sites and post it..Quote:

this isn't necessarily a bad thing, especially if they tend to post news that you and I are interested in..
i remember when they had ikaruga spelled "Icaruga" :DQuote:

this wasn't magic box's fault alone - not by a long shot.. every online import retail shop out there had 5/30 listed as the date after NCSX heard from one of their sources that it was to be released then..Quote:

if anyone is at fault for that date, it's gotta be NCSX..
not that i care now anyway, though.. bring on sept. 5th!! :) :) :eek:
Can you AIM right now, Frogacuda? I want those vids. :)
