Hot!

 

[Kiriku]

Wow, they even included games like Raystorm, loved that game.

 

[iced lightning]

nice... is the first one already out in the US?

 

[Baron]

What are the odds of this seeing a release outside Japan? The idea of buying a J-PS2 is soounding like more and more of a good idea. I can't stand by idle as these games sit unlocalized.

 

[Acosta]

Was the first vol released?

 

[solarplexus]

Was the first vol released?

Fuckin-A for Cadash. Happy days in THE SEASIDE TOWN OF MARINADE.

 

[drohne]

holy shit! gun frontier and gekirindan! i won't pay for the saturn port of the former, and the saturn port of the latter is fucked! now i can have them both! best classics compilations ever? yes.

 

[BuckRobotron]

Shooter fans agree. This rocks.

 

[dog$]

When the first list came out, I kept silently hoping G-Darius would be on the next one. I'm thrilled to see it on this roster.

Slightly humorous that Elevator Action 2 is on the 1st disc and the original EA (uh) is on this.

 

[bob_arctor]

Gun Frontier? Yes! No inflated Ebay Saturn purchase for me. And Gekirindan? I'm assuming that this will be an exact port and not the hack job the Saturn version supposedly is. At least I hope as the game always appealed to me.

This coming to Xbox as well? If not, will this be a U.S. PS2 release?

Empire's doing a different Taito Collection for PS2/PC/Xbox in the west.

Taito Memories are my favorite kind of memories.

wheres bubble Symphony and bubble Memories damnit

On the western Taito Legends release, apparently.

I'm still pretty confused as to how all these releases are flowing together, and whether or not I'm actually going to be paying $150 to collect'm all. Memories 1 has Elevator Action Returns, Legends has Pop'n'Pop and Symphony, Memories 2 has Cadash and Mizubaku, and I only have so much cash to go around.

 

[PanopticBlue]

I'd rather have Rayforce than Raystorm, but I won't complain. Looks like an ace compilation.

 

[Rubeus]

I think one game is missing in that list, it is called Akkanbeder (Space Invaders '95: Attack of Lunar Loonies), there should be 25 games in total. :lol
