Title: Ikaruga for Amiga!?!
Post by: Opi-Poi on November 30, 2002, 03:22:43 AM
Recently Pagan Games declared it is working on a
shooter based on Ikaruga by Treasure (and Giga Wing 2 by Capcom).

Is it just me or does this seem like a joke?

Not only did Treasure (http://www.treasure-inc.co.jp/) inject
some originality into this genre,
but it's graphics are a work of art.
It's rock hard too.Try and top that!

No,I wish them all the best and I really hope they prove me wrong,
but given their track record on they're own game titles (not
ports!).....I just can't see it.

OS5 by december 2003,yeah I can just about imagine that.
An Ikaruga beater for Amiga,oh please.
