jp DoDonPachi Saidaioujou

DoDonPachi SaidaioujouDoDonPachi Saidaioujou is out in Japanese arcades today. Cave offers a more stylish game than the previous DoDonPachi episodes while keeping the gameplay that made its success. But new features are added such as the "Dress System". The player chooses an "elemental doll" among the three available, each having her own ship; Shuri (Type A) has a fast red ship with a narrow shot, Hikari (Type B) has a medium-speed green helicopter with a shot angling with player's movement and Maria (Type C) has a blue ship, slower and shooting wide. The "Dress System" consists of three different styles of clothing for dolls: the "shot" style (combat clothes), the "laser" style (casual clothes) and the "expert" style (swimsuit). Ships have a "shot" attack and an "laser" attack. Each style has different characteristics: with the "shot" style, the shot attack is more powerful, the player begins with three bombs and can carry up to six. With the "laser" style, the laser attack is more powerful and the player starts with two bombs and can carry up to four. With the "expert" style, the two types of attacks are powerful but the ennemies bullets patterns are more difficult, the player starts with a bomb and can carry two maximum. DoDonPachi Saidaioujou uses three buttons: A button to fire, while holding it down the player uses the laser, B button for bombs and C button is auto-fire. An auto-bomb mode can be selected at the game start but it uses all the bombs in stock, if it's turned off, an extra bomb is offered to the player when he returns after death. By defeating enemies, players can get bonus lives and "hypers" bonuses that allow canceling all enemy fire when triggered. Regarding the staff, Manabu Namiki (DoDonpachi and Death Smiles) composed the music and character design is signed by Ryo Nagi (Steel Chronicle).

be Operation G.H.O.S.T. in Belgium

Operation G.H.O.S.T. in BelgiumOperation G.H.O.S.T. is playable at Sportland, Blankenberge. This sequel to hit shooter Ghost Squad (and Ghost Squad Evolution) was released in Europe in late January. We already mentionned it in our EAG International report. Operation G.H.O.S.T. remains in the spirit of Sega's series, the player is still a member of the G.H.O.S.T. international elite squad fighting terrorism. During the game, the player must make many strategic choices and give orders to team members (such as throwing a grenade at the critical moment). Compared to the first game, there is no more savegame card system nor online ranking, but a speaker hidden in the scope of the assault rifle immerses you into the action. Multicolored LEDs are reflected around the LCD screen (42" or 55" depending on the model) and react to the action. RingWide powered, the game is not exceptional graphically but Ghost Squad fans will enjoy it nonetheless! Try it!
