Re: Intergalactic Shmuppreciation Month!

So, Cave recently decided to make its fanbase crap its collective pants. Before I list the games they're releasing, let me explain why this news is so surprising. Up until about 2 years ago, shmup development generally followed this pattern: 1. Game gets released in the arcade 2. Game remains arcade...

Re: Good Games/ Bad Games Thread

Good God, I need to start logging in on Friday/Saturday nights. I keep missing out on these. You probably wouldn't have enjoyed last night too much, considering the name Tieria gave you.

Re: Virtual On: Vengeance

I don't recognize the cabinet, but isn't the screenshot in that stand-up Virtual On machine from the old Punch-Out arcade game?

Re: Good news everybody

But after I messed around with some QoS settings, now online games run silky smooth while streaming, even against Japanese players. I'm a total n00b when it comes to network stuff... what are your QoS settings like? I have port 53 (DNS) set to highest priority. Then my Xbox's MAC address and ports ...

Too bad this isn't a year ago. The Watch Schooly School People channel would have been great for recruiting purposes.

Re: Post your questions here

You're definitely rotating manually while dashing/walking. But I haven't used twin sticks in a long time, so I'm not sure what's happening exactly. Are you pushing both sticks forward? That was my first idea, but I thought just pushing one stick in any direction and leaving the other one neutral mak...

Re: Virtual On Force coming to XBLA?

NCSX mentioned that the package weight for them is 27 lbs, about 12.2 kg. EMS shipping for that to North America would be 17,300¥, just under $200 at current exchange rates. :shock:

Re: Virtual On Force coming to XBLA?

I wasn't seriously considering it for myself, just thinking out loud. :) But I was curious, so I sent them a message. Here is what I got: We haven't finalized our decision to import the new batch of Virtual On Twinsticks yet but we'll be glad to notify you if we do bring them in. We weren't able to ...

Does anybody know if NCSX will be taking pre-orders for this batch? If so, that'd probably be the easiest way to get them.

Re: Introducing, the "Peer to Pilot" Program!

Gameplay-wise, it far surpasses Mech-Assault, Chrome-Hounds, Gundams, Armored core , I severly disagree with using these examples. I've always felt that it's closer to Soul Caliber, DoA or Mortal Kombat. It's more fighting game then mech game. It's not really like any fighting game either, though. ...

Re: Important question

I thought I'd add this: Guide to owning a Japanese 360 from Shmups Forum. Skimming over that, I wonder about DLC. If VOF doesn't come to the US and you have to import it, the DLC (if there is any) will probably be unavailable from the US marketplace. :| I'd be pissed if they made some of the VRs dow...

Re: ADOPT-A-NOOB TOURNAMENT NEEDS TEACHERS

I wouldn't mind buying a 1600 point card or something. As for mentoring, I'm not a good teacher, and I mostly just play by intuition. For anything beyond the basics, I'd just be like, "uh, just play a lot, you'll figure it out eventually." :? Besides, Specineff is probably not a good VR fo...

Re: Virtual On Force coming to XBLA?

Well checked out magicbox and it says the graphics are based on VOOT for 360. So higher resolutions and more softer lighting effects but nothing being remodelled as expected. Fine by me, I thought VOOT looked pretty good for being a 10+ year old arcade port. :) Then again, I play it with the Enhanc...

Yeah, red seems too harsh to me. Although I often just see black and white anyway; a lot of times I like to browse the web without images and colors... cuts down on visual clutter. :geek:

It sucks that I logged on just after everybody left, but I figured that might happen with the time difference and all. Glad to hear you got a good turnout, though. :)

I'm 6 hours behind you, but if you're going late I might be able to squeeze in a few matches right after work.
