Hopefully they will have Treasure co-develop that game as well if they decide to do a Gradius 6. Gradius 5 is amazing.

In 2006 they actually announced a Gradius VI, and then.... said nothing more about it for five years. I suspect it got cancelled. We did however get Gradius Rebirth a couple years ago.

I bought this yesterday.

It's awesome. It's a modern retro-shooter that isn't bullet hell :D :D :D

Also, it's got anime boobs, which is awesome.

I got CE edition. It came with a pillow case. I'm not sure that I think of that.

I don't want to poo-poo anyone's good time, but I find this game to be absolutely f*cking atrocious. Boring as hell and virtually no redeeming qualities. Sadly, not even boobies could save it from being a less-than-pedestrian, lazy, and flat-out boring shmup. It looks like a hi-res N64 game (only slightly exaggerating), and plays like the developers got bored after the first level.

There's one level toward the end that's slightly interesting because it reminded me of level one of Gate of Thunder, but that's followed up by a boss rush over a plain black background.

I really wanted to love this game, and hoped all the negative comments I'd read about it on Shmups.com and other places were unfounded. Alas...I feel like I was robbed out of $50 for a game that would have been overpriced as a $10 XBLA game.

If you want a horizontal shmup on XBLA or Games On Demand with a dash of titties, you'd be much better served with Deathsmiles or Trouble Witches Neo.

Sorry to drop a deuce on your thread. The "art book" is nice, though!

I liked Otomedius G but it was a f*cking nightmare to unlock. My copy of Excellent shipped yesterday so I should have it next week sometime. Also I needed a new pillowcase

I 'd probably buy it just for the music alone.. sadly I don't know when this will be released here in the UK although I really need to get dondonpachi ressurrection deluxe
