Gunstar Heroes PSN $5

[Perversion]

How is this game? Isn't this Treasure's first (or first big) game? I love Ikaruga, and was wondering if this is similar in any way.


What was the other big shooter game they did besides this, Ikaruga, and Sin and Punishment?


F*** that 5 second google bulls***.


Meh. Wiki search tells me it's a side scrolling shooter, and the game I was thinking of above was Radiant Silvergun. I'm gonna probably hold off on Gunstar Heroes, and DL Radiant Silvergun if and when it's on XBLA.

It's been on the VC for awhile now.

You wouldn't like it, it's an action game.

It's too tough.

If I could add three games to my Genesis library, they would be Phantasy Star IV, Sonic and Knuckles and Gunstar Heroes.

Lucky for you there's no shortage of them in digital form.

Re: Gunstar Heroes PSN $5

gunstar heroes, unlike all the other non-phantasy star 2 sega games to hit live and PSN this week, doesnt feature online co-op.

which is RETARDED.

GUHWAH?

I thought that was the whole point of putting it on Live/PSN!?

Glad I didn't buy it, then.

edit:

if it doesn't have online co-op, then why does the xbox.com page for it say it does?

Re: Gunstar Heroes PSN $5

well, its not listed in the features. just leaderboards. online co-op is listed for all the other non-phantasy star 2 games.

The Xbox version has coop I believe.

Re: Gunstar Heroes PSN $5

Multiplayer: Play local multiplayer, or co-op multiplayer over Xbox LIVEŽ.

That seems pretty definitive to me, unless they're outright lying.

Re: Gunstar Heroes PSN $5

I checked yesterday, and it didnt list online co-op in the features. just leaderboards.

guess they ****ed up the listing and fixed it.

Me and a buddy bought Alien Hominid HD because it said that, and only the PDA minigames are online. Hate that ****. I'm doing more goddamn research the next time I buy downloadable games.

Re: Gunstar Heroes PSN $5

And I guess that's one reason I was hesitant to buy it!

Gunstar Heroes is like the Genesis/Treasure version of Contra III: Alien Wars.

Multiplayer, twitch-based, jumping, shooting, weapon-switching classic greatness. You wanna play this with a friend in the room with you.

Of course Perv wouldn't be interested!
