Eurogamer has confirmed reports that
Ikaruga has appeared on
Partnernet, the
Xbox 360's closed debug network.
Treasure's wildly awesome (and difficult)
schmup is listed under a Japanese name, but the bad news is
that Eurogamer couldn't get the game to run. The game does however reach a Treasure logo screen and has a full set of 12 achievements already built in. Our own sources also indicate that
Ikaruga has been sitting on
Partnernet for awhile, but has remained unplayable for some time.
Whether or not this means
Ikaruga is 360-bound is unknown, but Treasure had previously mentioned interest in working with
Xbox Live Arcade. This would be great news for
schmup fans in the US, as the
GameCube version is harder to get than chlamydia from a Roman Catholic nun.
Here's to hoping that if the game sees the light of day, it will include an option to turn my 42" flat screen on it's side.
I don't even care about the rest of the article after reading that. I have a goal.
42 incher on its side...optimal for play? yes! Hilarious? Yes
Awesome Article? yes =P
that means there's a possibility
of seeing Gunstar Heroes, Alien Soldier and Radiant Silvergun
on my X360!!
all in HD!!
i love Treasure!!
now all i need is Contra Hard Corps and I can die happy!!
If you guys like shmups get Nanostray for the DS. Great shooter
YES

My life will be ruined. RUINED I TELL YOU.
I played Ikaruga on the GC until my thumbs dissolved.
