Steam release of pic related caught me completely off guard. There was no marketing whatsoever..
As a big fan of the ps1 port for G-Darius I was instantly pumped, but after playing a few hours I'm still not convinced.
I'm missing the large scale the G bosses had and the great level design. The Musik lacks something too for me.
An I missing something?
I'm not sure. I have purchased it and haven't played it yet. I have yet to really read anything but general praise.
If you really do like G Darius (I would put it in my Top 10 shooter list), be sure to get to play the PS2 Taito collection which has it. The slowdown which cripples the PS1 port really is substantial and makes the game considerably easier. G Darius at proper speed is tough as hell.

I'm guessing the game's main draw is the huge amount of content. I'm not too sure about OVER 3000 STAGES thing though.
why is it 45€?
its a fucking shump
>>319301510
It's simultanelously released in japan and west, so it's basically whole new game.
>>319299328
Oh I didn't know about the Taito collection! How does it emulate? Maybe I finally have to dig up my ps2

The over 3k stages are sort of a light mmo, where all the players on the server are sharing progress. What I played so far was the same as I mentioned before in terms of quality
>>319301510
It's the biggest shmup.

Why the fuck physical release is JP Vita only?
Want to get it, but can't decide either go digital for big screen or physical but on Vita.
>>319302406
If you can play it on two screens or on a big 4k TV.. Definitely digital pc.
The single player mode, which has separate progress from the multiplayer part, is 16/9 or whatever
But the MP mode is locked to the super wide-screen format, I can't imagine how that works out on the vita
>>319303083
I don't have 4k TV, regular 1080p but 40" one. Will super wide screen still work for PS4 version for example?
My second monitor on potato PC is shit and uneven (using 17" CRT one cause more suitable one broke way back) so I doubt I'll get it on steam.
>>319303518
4k isn't mandatory, but makes it crisper ofc
Since the ps4 is limited to 1080p with one screen as far as I know It will have the black bars like on my pic. Still ok if the screen is large enough

k, thanks for info anon. May pick it up for PS4 then. Will still research a bit price for importing and vita port differences + perfomance. I try to not pass on a physical copy whenever I can.

Glad I could help you, good luck :)

Seems fine to me. I never have taken the time to look up arcade footage or find a rom so I can't make first hand comparison offhand.
It's unfortunate, but also obvious, that there is no controller rumble so that's one small loss.
I have it on the Japanese release "Taito Memories 下巻", I'm not which US release has it.
>>319301510
It has over 3000 stages
>>319305017
I'll need it. I suck at shmups, yet I enjoy them a lot.
have a good day, anon
Pirating it right now. Even if it's a great game, it's not worth that price.

>I'm not which US release has it.
Taito Legends 2 to be more specific the PS2 version but since he's getting it and all..

PC users everyone.
Unless you devalue game greatly via sales, nobody going to pay for niche genre game which has slightly higher than usual production values.
Gee, I wonder why PC games suck in variety lately and stuck in Early Access shithole, and why there are no solid genres like tactics games or RTS aside of very rare occassions.
>>319305414
Where'd you find it?
>>319305826
I'll buy it in the steam sale :^)
