BTW guys, what CAVE shmup for my 360 on a limited budget. Specifically, Futari 1.5 or Black Label?
Futari Black Label is DLC for Futari 1.5 (costs 1200 points). Both are very worth getting, but at any rate you can't really get Black Label without getting 1.5. :P Edit: Ninja'd by Aisha. You can buy it with any kind of points, though; the DLC is available on all XBLA regions, I believe. I bought it from the European one myself.

...Unless of course you meant Galuda 2 Black Label, in which case it's personal preference, especially since you seem to like Galuda a lot. Honestly I'm starting to prefer it over Futari recently, but it's really, really hard (as in harder than Futari 1.5 Original and Maniac for sure, and leagues beyond the first Galuda), so you might want to build up to it with Futari first, which is awesome fun regardless of skill level since it has so many difficulties. :V

Also, I broke 15m by the end of Ketsui stage 1 today. :D

Oh, I didn't know you could use points from any region. Do you know if the same applies for the Japanese Deathsmiles DLC?

Unfortunately not. :< I'm still waiting on the email from Play-Asia with my Japanese XBLA points code to get my hands on MBL 1.1.

Ah nice. I didn't know Play-Asia could just e-mail you the codes. I was just thinking of asking Forza to do that for me in the future. :V

It seems like a pretty recent thing. I didn't get the option while ordering it, but a few days ago they emailed me saying they'd begun doing them by email as well as shipping, asking if I wanted it by email or by post, and that they'd refund the shipping if I said email. The right choice was pretty obvious. :getdown:

Yup, Black Label is DLC, and it will easily be one of the best things you ever buy. :3

I ordered my J360 almost two weeks ago and this is what I got for an answer:

"We are now verifying your payment with paypal. The order will be proceeded after the payment is verified. We kindly ask you for patience."

wtf playasia, as far as I understand you already got the money.  :/

Did you order a Japanese Elite Slim 360? Those are back ordered right now.

I would have totally bought one just now had they been in stock. Oh well.

EDIT:

I'll give you one immaterial cookie if you guess who voted for Phantasm Romance 2.5 Plus. at least it doesn't stand below CtC, heheh..

Also, I want to start a Phantasm Romance 2.5 Plus scoreboard on this forum, but can't start a new thread on the highscore subforum. Tried to contact lgb through irc, but couldn't find him, however I haven't tried pming him yet. Didn't think that I would have to :p

Also, iirc PoFV is too low on that list too.. my other top choices didn't fare well, either

How much time do you guys think it will take for HM to be translated? Besides everyone's story modes and the whole menus, there's also the fact that the way HM's programmed is different from all other games. I bet it'll take two months.

That's because everyone hates PoFV

Make a scoreboard over in CPMC and I'll transfer it across. Similarly, you could bug a(nother) mod in the same manner to achieve the same result. Just suggestions. He's also running the handle "Alice" at the moment, so if you can't find him, this could be a reason why.

While speaking of that list, I'm surprised that StB made it that far up.

Well, I like Galuda because it's the only CAVE shmup I've played. But honestly, if a 1cc was so hard for a seasoned shmupper like you, then I'll try to ease into the genre more before I attempt one myself.

On topic, I bought Mushi for PS2 about 30 seconds ago.  :toot: Now to hope the seller isn't scamming me.

Depends how much your copy cost. Regardless, it's totally worth the arm and leg.

I don't know how interested some of you guys are in livestream and crap (since that site is riddled with ads without the use of AdBlock+ or something)
but in about 30 mins, I'm going to try to broadcast a stream of me attempting the 1CC of God Mode.
