Hopefully this will make it to the North American XBLA.

Does anyone know which of the Ray Storm ports are better - JPN Saturn or PS1?

I always thought the PS1 was better at 3D garphics and saturn was better with 2D graphics, however this game runs well on both. I personally think the Raystorm in the PS2 Taito Legends 2 collection looks cleaner though.

OK, cool. Something about compilations turns me off, especially for shooters, which I kind of collect. If it doesn't come out for XBLA, I'll probably err towards the Saturn version due to the better controller.

I still like the first one the best, but I recommend the PS one, not only 'cause it was released here by SPAZ which made an awsome package, but 'cause it has a better 3D engine than Saturn and I preffer Saturn over PS.

After playing the magical Layer Section, Raystorm and Raycrisis just seem pointless and ugly.

Fuck it, just give me Layer Section. :scratch:

I actually just recently bought Layer Section. I haven't played it yet, though.

Looks like PS3-only owners got lucky this time, since Raystorm HD is also getting a PSN release.

Still no release date. The video looks ok. I'll probably give this a spin when it comes out.

Nobody fucking knows... including Taito. Watch MS push this back to Summer as part of this year's Summer of Arcade.

The original version is really starting to show it's age like all mid 90s 3d games. It will be nice to play this with updated graphics. The R-Gray 2 ship is awesome for scoring once you learn how to use it.

Played the hell out of the PSX rev back in the day but I don't know if I can go $15 for that. Seems like the same thing with slightly better textures.
