Very cool, I would buy this game. We just need our XMs wink wink nudge nudge

Not trying to stray too far off topic, but did anyone other than me have the pleasure of playing OutRun environmental in the arcade? I remember the cab leaning side to side when turning the wheel. One of the first motorized cabs I played, and I luckily got to play Afterburner and G-Loc environmentals back when they originally came out too. Ahh...good times.

I used to not care about all this.. and I dont even care that the dlc is on the disc. It's just annoying to me that it's a conscious design decision now to allocate characters as pay-to-play. It's fully planned and every game is like that now. So now I'm pretty disgusted by it. I used to think "just give us all the characters" in a fighting game but that's really a pipe dream now in today's market.

If Street Fighter 2 came out today, we'd have to buy Ken. :roll: :lol:

Exactly. I was pretty disgusted the first game that I bought that had 'release day DLC'. At that point I quickly became very disenchanted with modern gaming. I still play modern games mind you, but I find myself deliberately staying away from games that are dlc factories. It's all a trap honestly, and it's really just nasty greed to drip content to customers like that. Game companies have adopted the sales tactics of the local street dealer slangin' his dope. They shouldn't be rewarded for this.

Who knows how far 'DLC' will go, will we have to pay for the privilege to PAUSE, or any other function of a game we used to think was standard? Why not pay extra to be able to adjust your button settings?

In fact, isn't most DLC already on-disc? Unless something is a multi-gigabyte download, I'd assume that the content was already on your disc.

Been playing Espgaluda II Black Label this weekend and I love it. But, these Cave games...man they are kind of overwhelming. I always have to search around the net for an explanation of the scoring system. I like to turn on my Genesis once in awhile to play some classic straightforward shmups, where I can just shoot and dodge bullets and I score what I score. With Cave shmups its like you have to multitask like a madman, it's actually kind of stressful.

I ordered Otomedius Excellent. I know it's not getting good reviews but it is getting average ratings, and it was only $15 at the time on Amazon, but I just looked again and it shot back up to $29. I got lucky I think. And, I figure I might as well have all the shmups available, they always have good resale value in the future anyway.
