Guardian Heroes (XBLA, Developed by Treasure) [Update 2: Gameplay Video, 800 Points]

I am numb.

Never in my wildest dreams would I think they'd ever even acknowledge this game existed again.

Day zero. +1 guaranteed sale.
 
Guardian Heroes is pretty good. Best console-developed belt scroll game, even if it can't touch a lot of the great arcade ones. I'd play this, definitely.

I swear, it's the only victory pose worthy of this announcement. GGAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

Also have to give shout-out to what I consider the main theme of VS mode: Roundabout!

Maybe I should change my avatar from the Noone-recognizes-him Royal knight (Axe+Lightning FTW!)... to something more obvious... :lol: Though I don't think "Sky Warrior" is really any better... Ha ha ha.
 
I have a couple of friends that will probably buy a year's worth of XBLA just for this game. I really hope the netcode is tight for simultanious multiplayer. :D
 
Day one instabuy! Hopefully the multiplayer-mode will be treated with the respect it deserves. While we're at it, bring over the best Bomberman ever IMO (Saturn Bomberman)
 
HUZZAH!!!!

Very, very excite about this. I hope its a full port that has the goofy arena where you can play as all the enemies in the game. My friends and I poured countless hours into the Saturn version.
 
I'm worried about the new graphics. This could easily be Totally Spies material if not handled impeccably. Very cautiously optimistic.

I hope they include the original game.

Its Treasure. They wont let just anything happen to their game. At any rate, I hope they dont touch the soundtrack (was and still is amazing) or take out the anime intro. If anything, just redo the intro hard corps uprising style if you have to.
 
Oh the greatest surprise news in a long time. I'm just so damn happy that more people will be able to experience this wonderful gem of a title. I don't actually need to get it again, my Saturn version still works, but I will buy it just to support it and hope for more of the wonderful Saturn library to see re-releases.
 
After seeing Ikaruga HD, hearing about Radiant Silvergun HD, and of course the recent Bangai-O... theres no way this wont be anything short of amazing.
 
lol i read the thread title as Guardian Heroes and i was like "what no wa..


WAIT WHAT


ONGUNFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
 
Bangaio yesterday, GH announced today.

A great week for treasure/DC fans! I loved my DC, runs to hug.

As for excellent DC games, Mars Matrix please Capcom!

And GO Modus!!
 
You guys are kinda nuts. Gunstar Heroes was a fine port, 1942 Joint Strike is a fantastic game. Backbones had some terrible releases like most Genesis ports but they've had some great ones. Also Marvel Vs Capcom 2 was a fantastic port.

Does your Saturn copy have online co-op and Vs. Mode support for 12 players?
That stuff's pretty secondary to me, though. I could see not caring about it.

Call the ports what you will, but let's not go crazy and call Joint Strike "a fantastic game."

Wooooooo
 
Fuck yeah. The 360 now has enough Treasure XBLA remakes for me to consider buying one. How cheap is a 360 with a broken DVD drive?
 
VERY cool news!

That's one less expensive Saturn game I need to track down. :)

Here's hoping it shows up on PSN eventually too!
