Time Crisis Strike Trademarked in Europe
The-Excel | 2:17 PM on 01.06.2009 4 comments



A trademark for a new Time Crisis game has been discovered yesterday by the Siliconera (I source them too much). The author speculates that Time Crisis Strike is a new arcade release. I don't have any particular expectations about this game other than that it better come out in my arcade (obviously), but all I ask is that somebody redirect someone important to this essay before it's too late. The more I think about it, though, the more I can't help but feel that this new game will be any better than Time Crisis 4. Still, why was this found in the European Union trademark database? It's not like they care as much about light gun games as America or Japan does (to my knowledge, anyway). And why is it not called Time Crisis 5? If this is set to be a spinoff, I get the feeling that it will be on the Wii alongside Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles and House of the Dead 2 & 3 Return.

Note: I selected PS3 for the category because there's no generic "games" or "arcade" category and one of the commenters in the Siliconera article notes that if it is an arcade game, it will run on the PS3-based System 357.

SteamID: TheExcel ; alias George Washingmachine

The world would be a better place if all the leaders of all the great nations of the world would spend a little more time sitting on the potty.

My name is James A. Calwell III and I'm legal. I play shmups, mostly of the horizontal, non-danmaku variety, but once in a while I like to do something different. My personal site is located at http://whatistheexcel.com. I go by a number of names throughout the internet, including:

Excel-2009
Excel-2008
The-Excel
Exy

No my name does not have any intended connection to Microsoft Excel, Excel Saga, the Exhibition Center of London, the Excel Energy Center in St. Paul or anything else you can think of. Don't ask where it came from; I don't remember and I don't care to. Exy was adopted as a shorthand form from the (female) character of the same name in DoDonPachi dai-ou-jou.

I put very low priority on merit-based ranking systems within large communities, including Achievements, community ranks and leaderboards. I don't get why so many people are conscious about their scores because as one person I will not name here says, I play for fun. The only time I ever pay attention to my score is if I'm playing a shmup or a similarly difficult game and it's used to award extends.

My favorite games include the Gradius series, Darius Gaiden, Picross DS, the Metal Slug series, Twinkle Star Sprites and the bemani games (beatmania IIDX, pop'n music, etc). In other words, I'm not like you and I don't try to be. I respect that you're different from me, except you're not. I cannot believe how ignorant you can be sometimes. Incidentally, if you ever feel the need to get destroyed at Twinkle Star Sprites, just let me know and we can set up a match over 2df.
