Game is fucking amazing, everyone should buy this.


One question I have, though: which version is better, PS3 or 360? I seem to recall the 360 version was better, but who knows... maybe not.


Also curious for Daytona, as I imagine that's gotta be on the chopping block, too.

the Xbox version sports full-on 4xMSAA while on PS3 there's none whatsoever.
Although the game moves so fast that it helps a lot in mitigating the lack of AA on PS3, the Xbox port is much more clean looking. Also, imo the 360 controller's triggers work better for this game.

But I own both, since I can use my PC/PS3 flightstick on the PS3 port (which also looks good btw) which makes playing the game even more of a blast... if you have a stick go PS3 otherwise go X360... unless you own the AC6 X360's flightstick

 

[Rhazer Fusion]

I bought it at launch and loved it. Everyone should buy it, especially if you love old-school shoot-em-ups.

 

[ResidentDante]

Fun game, I recommend it!

 

[AgentOtaku]

Still cant believe this is getting delisted

 

[Combichristoffersen]

Have it. Like a Doge would say, WOW! Much good. Such awesome. Very buy.

 

[Stopdoor]

So hey, I took a look at the store page for this today because you know, waffling whether to buy it or not, and it doesn't seem like I can purchase it anymore. Downloaded the trial even, and the 'Purchase Full Game' option doesn't work.

Early take-down?

 

[Takao]

Looks like it's already been removed from NA PSN and XBLA.

I... I can't believe it. I was waiting until the last day in case a discount popped up, and I didn't think there'd be any risk in doing so as I thought the december 24th date was final... Couldn't have guessed they'd pull the plug early...

Goddamnit, Sega...

 

[7DollarHagane]

should renew the contract for a PS4 version.

Oh wait this is sega.. lol

 

[Omnii-chan]

I'm going to miss this game when the 360's live goes down forever and my HDD fails. Wish there was a retail release, or they ported it to PC and new gen.

 

[TheSadRanger]

Bought it a few years back when it was on sale for $5, can't remember when.

Loved the sense of speed in the game, didn't it run pretty consistently at 60fps?

edit: I also remember there being some pretty badass avatar awards for this game on 360. RIP avatars

 

[Camjo-Z]

Damn, I had a points card coming in the mail that I was hoping to use this on.

 

[Lambtron]

Fuck me I was going to wait a little bit longer to buy it. God dammit.

 

[Takao]

EU PS3 peeps should get it while they still can: https://store.sonyentertainmentnetw...imax/cid=EP0177-NPEB00175_00-AFTERBURNERCMX00

Likely gone after tomorrow's update.

 

[Remembrance]

If you can, buy it for iOS or Android. It is the same game, with the same content, just a graphical downgrade.

 

[hotnheavyload]

Great game.

Speaking of delisted Sega XBLA games, anyone want to play OutRun Online?

 

[Dash Kappei]

Great game.

If you want I'm in... like ABC, I also own ORO on both PS3 and 360

 

[REMEMBER CITADEL]

Shit, I'm still waiting for my debit card to activate, but it seems it's already gone. Ah, this is infuriating! And I was only missing pennies on my account.

 

[Emperor Bohe]

Everyone should grab this. I have it on 360 and it is awesome. Very faithful to the original games.

Great game.

Speaking of delisted Sega XBLA games, anyone want to play OutRun Online?

Hell yes!

 

[ViewtifulJC]

and ya'll wanted to wait for a sale on a $10 game

 

[dankir]

I had no idea this was even out :S

 

[Amagon]

Whaaaattttt!! They took it down early, god fucking dammit!

Just bought the Android version, this really fucking stinks Sega.

 

[BocoDragon]

Announcing the game is going down on a certain day and then pulling it early is just wrong

 

[daydream]

Got it today on 360 so I'm in the clear.

 

[sheaaaa]

Hadn't gotten around to picking this up and it's gone from both XBLA and PSN. Pretty fucked up.

 

[Nerdkiller]

Great game.

I got it on PS3. Anyone up for that one?

 

[KAOS]

Loved this game! Wish there was a steam version.

 

[Bogard]

Absolute crap. They stated the date, did they not? And then took it down early anyway. I was waiting to see what other games went on (PSN holiday) sale.

I'm rather angry, but I guess I made the mistake of thinking I had time. Not cool at all, Sega.

 

[Deleted member 126221]

Just loaded the demo to see if I could unlock the full version from there, but you can't...

Played the demo anyway, and wow... I really missed a great game. I don't really like this digital future where games can suddenly vanish...

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

Wow, they took it down? That's really fucked up.

 

[Persona7]

I was going to purchase the version I didn't have...I was going to check tonight. Oh well, I have it on one platform.

 

[Eolz]

It never was going to be on sale, 10$ was already a good price for this game.

they did NOT state a date, the date was speculated.

 

[poopninjamvc3mk]

Welp I put 10 bucks in my psn account for no reason

 

[Gunstar Ikari]

I was this close to buying it yesterday, but decided to put it off until today.

You snooze, you lose, I guess. =/

 

[SmokyDave]

I guess I can put my dream of a Vita port to bed. I bought it on PS3 and iOS, but I'd have happily triple dipped

Delisting digital games fucking sucks. I hope some enterprising archivists have it saved somewhere.

 

[oneida]

Requesting that a mod update the thread title to indicate the game has been delisted

 

[hotnheavyload]

Also we need someone to set up a thread for OutRun Online community play dates

 

[REMEMBER CITADEL]

What makes me regret this even more is the fact that I went to the bank to get a new debit card the day earlier. However, the waiting line was too long, and I had groceries I needed to take home as quickly as possible, so I thought, fuck it, I'll do it tomorrow. And I did, but it was too late.

You've had over 4 years to buy the game, plus its had multiple sales. No one to blame but yourself. Atleast with this game you had warning it was being taken down unlike Jojo HD.

I actually had no means of purchasing digital titles until a year ago. There was still enough time, of course, but I wasn't expecting this to happen so suddenly, and when lifelower warned that the game was being taken down, I couldn't immediately afford adding more money to my account (like I said earlier, I was missing only pennies, and my next Xbox Rewards deposit was due in a few days, so I thought I'd be all right).

 

[Remark]

I've owned this game for a while may play it again seeing as i just hooked my 360 back up for some Skate.

 

[InfiniteNine]

Glad I got this around the time it came out! Fun times this is I hope they get it back up somewhere somehow.

I just bought it from the Euro store.

 

[SteveWinwood]

this game was cash

sucks its gone

 

[Raptomex]

Great game but too short. You can platinum it within a half-hour. It's good fun but After Burner II is still the best.

I guess you have reasons. Shame MS and Sony doesn't allow gifting. I wouldn't mind gifting someone a copy if it was allowed.Great game to be missing.

Only if After Burner Climax doesn't exist.

 

[FloatOn]

this game has a home on steam (should we be so lucky!).

sega knows pc gamers love their games.

 

[Raptomex]

Only if After Burner Climax doesn't exist.

Considering I'm talking about the arcade version of After Burner II or the Japanese Saturn version, your argument is invalid. But Climax is still a damn good game.

 

[InfiniteNine]

Only if After Burner Climax doesn't exist.

Technically it doesn't exist for a lot of people now that they can't buy it.
