SITEX IT Show Exploration

The exploration was damn great but there were many too things to explore with like I had to go in one whole corner in a round. Strangely enough, the GPS devices are modernized as well as discovering additionally great USB devices and Google Android devices. Also, I already have an Acer laptop which is Acer Aspire 4740G that I didn’t even bother to take a look at other computers to avoid some kind of movie spoilers. For music videos, it’s surely full of popular K-Pop videos. Be it the music video or the live concert, either way, it’s an idol-like performance. One of those USB devices was a camera embedded with the flashlight which can be useful for bicycle users. The other one was a mini keyboard and when I controlled the mouse with it, it felt like you’re playing the flight or racing games. There was also the controller next to it that looked like what the Playstation 3 controller with the keyboard addon should have been. Next up was the phones. Unfortunately, there wasn’t any single Windows Phone 7 phone being shown which was a shame to this whole IT Show. There were popular GPS devices like those from TomTom for example where you can do the touchscreen thing. Unfortunately, GPS devices are not on par with the modern mobile devices with multi-touch screen support and modern interface animation. You may ask if those devices are like powered with Windows CE or something. There were also Media Center DVRs which are hard to buy at shopping complexes as well as various NAS devices and even Portable Internet TVs. Strangely enough until this year or next year, there was the first portable Internet TV launched two days ago in this country.
Overall, this IT show is a must go if you feel interested but that Drag Toilet Paper flash game contained shitty controls and the GPS devices are somewhat inaccurately embedded so that they can be on par with various modern mobile devices. I want the tapping method instead of constant sliding.

Espgaluda II for Xbox 360 was out yesterday

Before it was out, there are already screenshots and videos of this game. It features Black Label, Arrange and Xbox 360 Mode.
  • The Black Label mode can allow you to clear the enemy bullets in any mode you want where-else you can use the Kakusei mode to graze the enemy bullets. Be careful, you have limited graze bar when doing so.
  • The Arrange mode is something like Mushihimesama Futari’s Arrange mode where you can do something back to the enemy bullets in case there are too many of them for you to tolerate with. Basically, there are enemy bullets that can be shot but in Kakusei mode, it’s a limitation as you have the Kakusei items which are just below the green gem items. As you will have like thousands of Kakusei bonus items, there’s nothing to worry about the limitation of collecting these bonus items.
  • Xbox 360 mode is something we’re not sure of.
There may seem to have three BGM options and two of them are original and arranged ones. We’re not sure about the Black Label OST of this game as Dodonpachi Daifukkatsu Black Label already has its own different OST.

College Graduation Complete

Having graduated yesterday, it was a huge enjoyment outside that graduation area at Suntec City. Proceeded there for dinner, fun and other exploration, it seemed that I played Raiden IV at The Star Factory again but at Suntec City. Problem is, I hate inserting coins myself to start playing but I had no choice anyway. Thanks to the videos from Raiden IV Official Blog, I was able to try out additional skills I mastered so far from them. Even level 3 could be a little bit impressive on the boss fight and especially for level 1 and 2 boss fights there. For level 1, things were completely great looking in my playing as I used those methods from those videos as well. Unfortunately, I stopped at level 4 as the shopping complex was apparently closing. Funny thing is that I still had to use the bomb when attacking large enemies even closer so you can know most of these during boss fights.

Update: It appears like I spent on less than 7 coins or something.

New official game discovered – Exception

We’ve stumbled across the discovery of Exception Arcade by Success. Originally a doujin game for Windows PC in which I had played the trial version before released by Primitive, Success has enhanced the arcade port of Exception with added stages, remixed music, additional sounds, additional graphics etc. You can call this as Exception Arcade or Exception Enhanced. What a good doujin game ever since Trouble Witches for both Windows and Taito Type X. This game for arcade will be released on Success’ PC based arcade machine and today in arcades, invention theme of arcade machine is PC-Based themed arcade machines which is the next level of arcade gaming.

Taito’s Music Gungun

Sure looks like a great and interesting rhythm game by Taito Corporation for arcades. I think I don’t know the actual release but it’ll be released in around this year. The game play is that you shoot the incoming enemies that are coming at you to the musical beat. Be careful not to let enemies successfully come at you because I think this is not good like they will attack you. This is another game with the Vocaloid voice appearance. The first game with Vocaloid complete cameo appearance is the one on the DS. It’s not quite easy to play with the gun controller or the Wii Remote. The easiest way is probably with the mouse, graphical tablet or touch screen but the funny thing for talking about this best method is that you’ll end up playing a game which its game play is based on INIS’ rhythm games on DS. In fact, even Hatsune Miku Project Diva’s game play is based on them as well. There are also bonus stuffs as well such as shape forming bonus, Chance Time where you can shoot the thing you’re chasing. Chance Time, huh. I might have seen this in Hatsune Miku Project Diva. It’s quite a great game. Home console ports will be good as well and I can imagine the Wii version can be easily ported from arcade original with more songs.

Update: There was also an update featuring more features of the game play as well as newer modes and songs. The sequel will be approaching as well.

Senko No Ronde DUO

Apparently out in July but we don’t know when around July. It was released on Taito Type X2 which uses the high definition resolution. This can be compatible for Xbox 360 but the standard definition is a complete joke of pixel perfect graphics. For Windows port, a powerful computer is a must with widescreen monitor and HD Graphic Card. This will target mostly Windows Vista computers but it can be for Windows XP as well provided that the Windows Vista computer can be dual-booted or downgraded. Computer Specs will be tested within the game inside as well.

Update: This was also out in Xbox 360 with various changes and additions.

Trigger Heart Exelica Enhanced for Playstation 2

Released yesterday but there's one latest video of this anyway. Somewhat the combination of the original version and XBLA version. Too bad that the voice track is completely remade. Also, game play media is taken straight from XBLA version. Story mode is like completely different than the Dreamcast version.
Here's the
original.
