Bangai-O HD: Missile Fury launching May 4

Why do I find the Bangai-O games SO FREAKING HARD!!

I wish they could release the dream cast version as well... :(

@Slagar: No Problem.

@TheArcade I can't believe I missed this! THANKS!:)

To the best of my knowledge, Treasure is a tiny company, they cannot afford to cover would-be bandwidth costs Sony demands of them. Microsoft provides little Indie devs and Japanese publishers free bandwidth and dev kits which makes things easier. As a result companies acknowledge this and MS is awareded Japanese support. Logic suggests it's because gamers are providing funds through Xbox LIVE is why enables developer freebies such as extra bandwidth for storing cloud data, XBLA exclusives and the like, while on the other hand if developers create these games for PSN they must take care of it. This costs them big time if they're selling to a niche audience because if said item doesn't sell it's coming out of their wallet.

@HollowNinja: But they are remaking their Saturn games what do you call Radiant Silvergun for XBLA then? (coming soon)

What makes Japan think that releasing a game exclusively for a console that not many Japanese gamers care about in Japan will make it sell a bunch of copies? Release the damn game on both PS3 and 360! What's next, Sega announces Shenmue III but it's Japan only and it's exclusive to the 360 as well, because they believe that the game will sell five millions copies there?

Treasure makes awesome games. I'd kill for a modern Radiant Silvergun sequel/remake!

xbl is the best place for arcade games hands down...

I have it on my Dreamcast. Brilliantly sexy game!

Needs PS3 version, though luckily I have both consoles. Also, where's my Guardian Heroes? Dammit, Treasure, remake your Saturn games for once!

Treasure needs to make a Collector's Set including Bangai-O, Ikaruga, Radiant Silvergun, Gunstar/Guardian Heroes, Mischief Makers and Dynamite Hhhhhhhhhhh--- *orgasms*

I played this all the time on Dreamcast. I expect this to be at least as good if not better.

Ugh wish it could come to PSN.:x I love Bangai-O Spirits.

Please be just as good as the Dreamcast game!

Awesome. Yet another great XBLA exclusive.

i really enjoyed the bangai-o on the dreamcast. Glad were seeing a revival on home console

Damn! I now I gotta buy this on the same day your killing me here Microsoft! What do you think my wallet is made of swiss cheese?

IT'S JUST FOR XBLA?!?! ASDGHAFDGHAGSDDGAHGSFDFHGFA sure, PSN is down, but IT WON'T BE DOWN FOREVER GIMME GIMME GIMME GIMME. seriously, i still play Spirits on my DS.

This is geometry wars on ROIDS!
