Think you're good at shooters?
Think again.

One of my favorite games of all time, not to mention one of the hardest Treasure interactive games ever made. Simply put: My favorite game for the Dreamcast.

That game is really amazingly fun. Too bad it got stolen. I had it for the gamecube

**Moogy** · 03-22-2007, 08:45 PM

Radiant Silvergun is cool too.

**Squeek** · 03-22-2007, 09:21 PM

Beat it on hard already... several times. It's good, but I wish I had the original version.

You know, the one that actually has a story.

And no, I'm not really that good at shooters. People just think Ikaruga is hard for some reason, when it really, really isn't.

**-Fallen-** · 03-22-2007, 09:45 PM

There is a GameCube version of this I think, right? I hope I can pick it up sometime in the near future.

Have fun buying an arcade machine.

The Gamecube version is identical to the Dreamcast version, minus a few small additions.

**Squeek** · 03-23-2007, 11:41 AM

Isn't the Japanese version story-based?

If not, I've been had.

**Moogy** · 03-23-2007, 12:02 PM

There is no story in any version of Ikaruga. Maybe in a manual or something, but not the game itself.

Magnafiend · 03-23-2007, 06:43 PM

Havn't played this game in so long. A bit out of my league at the moment though....... Got to the 3rd form of the last boss, but thats about it. Don't play it much though.

**Chromer** · 03-24-2007, 01:54 AM

Perfect Cherry Blossom.

That is all.

It didn't hold my interest long enough.

Seriously, I don't see the hype about it. I thought Shikigami no Shiro was more fun.

**Squeek** · 03-24-2007, 09:03 AM

Ohnoes! I didn't enjoy a game that Touhou fan club loved?!

I AM UNCLEAN.

Cj_leonine · 03-24-2007, 09:27 AM

Cleanse yourself blasphemer.

**Squeek** · 03-24-2007, 09:36 AM

ok later

i'm going to work

**-Fallen-** · 03-26-2007, 06:50 AM

I know a lot of you play Perfect Cherry and all the other games, would anyone mind pm'ing me a link or FTP or anything at all with the full versions of these games?

I tried getting PCE but it's only a demo =\

**Moogy** · 03-26-2007, 07:43 AM

PCB is probably my favorite Touhou game, and the best one to start off with.

**-Fallen-** · 03-26-2007, 09:38 AM

Thanks again Moogy, I will most definitely start off with PCB
