Anyone get this today?
How much is it?
Good?

Not much hope left for SNK-P, hoping this doesn't suck.....

Definitely curious....
But will surely want to try before I buy.

Doesn't look very good, but have to at least give it a whirl.

Sure wanna try too.
But seriously it really looks weird.
I think they used the KOF characters because there's nothing really special in that game. Very classic shoot I think and not very well realised basing on the video I've seen.

And KOF characters in a shoot, sorry but just ridiculous for me

My expectations for this game aren't very high but I would like to try it. Don't think any arcades around my area would want to pick it up though. Maybe AI would.

I wouldn't buy Sky Stage if it was a 99 cent iPhone game. I honestly wouldn't. I don't know what they'll be charging for this game, but I'm sure it's more than 99 cents, so forget it.

Looks terrible, really poor.

I thought this game was gay as hell when I first saw it, but then the more I thought about it....I actually thought it might work. Where else but in the realms of video game universe could you be your favorite arcade fighter in a shmup free-for-all?

Why not?

I honestly think they have seen what CAVE have been doing the last few years and how successful they've been with their fans abroad, and tried to latch onto it somehow.

The result being frankly embarassing.

Has anybody been able to comment on the actual gameplay yet? The latest videos actually don't look too bad, but of course, I'd like to see some actual feedback from someone who has played it. So far, it seems like most people are just uncomfortable with KoF characters in a shmup.

+1

As long as the gameplay is tight I'll buy it.

I watched all the videos at the official site last night. Its weird for sure. I don't know though I think it is still cool looking. If it has a North American release I'll get it. I really like all these 360 shooters but I'm not going to get a Japanese 360 and live service for them. Guess I'm stuck with Raiden 4 and Crescendo Symphony.

LOL, I didn't mean they were bad. They are both very good. I just meant I'd like more. :)

I have Raiden Fighters Aces. You could get that. Mushihime-sama Futari is region free and Death Smiles is being localized.

I wonder who developed this. Was it Alfa System?

Bizarre, but if it's fun, why not? I'm interested. I enjoy weird shooters. Heck, I enjoyed Mobile Light Force 2!

Waht do you mean by, "today"? I checked the Japanese XBLA store and there's nothing new. I can't even find a release date if it were retail for 360.

So you're probably meaning hardware, in which cause lol fuck nooooooo. I would check it out if it were on XBLA or possibly if it came to retail in a month where there's nothing else to mess with though.
