The first video that shows actual gameplay of the newly announced Xbox Live Arcade-game 'Omega V' is now online. The video shows multiple action sequences where the player needs to shoot hundreds of enemy's in this shoot 'm up. Click the link below to watch the video.
Andriasang: The release list in this week's Famitsu has some mega carnage for Hudson fans. It looks like many of the publisher's upcoming titles have been cancelled, presumably due to the recent Konami acquisition.
It's okay if you don't remember Omega Five. The Natsume-developed side-scrolling shump hit XBLA in early 2008 and has since shot into obscurity. According to Famitsu, the game is set to appear on Nintendo 3DS in Japan during Spring 2011 -- where it'll probably make a more memorable bow among a launch lineup otherwise devoid of "traditional" shoot-em-ups.
Having worked at Natsume for nearly 20 years, veteran composer Hiroyuki Iwatsuki discusses his memorable video game soundtracks, from classic scores on the Famicom to the soundtrack for XBLA title shoot'em-up Omega Five -- also sharing the challenges of producing 8-bit songs.
looks pretty good for an arcade game
Bizarre, but could be fun.
Its really bizzare and strange and yet Im totally in love with it. Really strange but fun looking game arcade shooter.
mmmm... I didn't think they could make a side-scroller spaceship shooter interesting in 2007.... kind of stranger.... but in a good way.... I'll keep an eye on it.
Lords Of Thunder, the classic PC Engine/Turbo Duo side scrolling shooter by---you guessed it, Hudson Soft! http://hg101.classicgaming....
This looks like a fun game. I miss all the original side-scrolling shooters as well as one very special top-scrolling shooter, Blazing Lazers (for TurboGrafx by Hudson Soft). http://www.gamespy.com/arti...
I'll be getting this game.
And, I know that Blazing Lazers is now available on the Wii's Virtual Console. That alone may be reason enough for me to pick one up.
Here's a video of some original Blazing Lazers goodness: http://youtube.com/watch?v=...
