Wow. Lots of issues with the game so far?

Scoreboard

Game Disc - 5 or more pissed off 360 owners - Original Mode(l) - 1CC!

(EDIT: Looks like some of you were successful. I'll be on hand to update scores once the discs are working)

Playing Arcade Original mode. I really need to memorize 1-3 boss' patterns. It was pure luck with this run.

Still getting the hang of the game. I can't help but think that this is kind of a less-interesting version of Eschatos. I KNOW that Raiden IV came out first and that the series was an influence on Eschatos... but I KEEP THINKING IT! :P

My best score so far on World Ranking (Xbox 360 Mode) is 6,107,970. That last million came in no-time flat so I'm sure I'll be getting better scores as time goes on...

Playing the original arcade version on my laptop using the Taito Type X setup thingy (sometimes have problems starting it up, but I can usually get it working eventually). Now I know why I've normally picked 'Light' mode when I've played this in the past - Original is frickin' tough! Anyway, a score...

Waiting for a part to arrive from the UK.

It's shipping DHL.

Then I can jump in.

I presume there's no PAL 360 release of this?

I obviously have a PAL 360 so it looks like I'll have to sit this one out. :(

My Plan: Socket T (LGA 775) CPU + Geforce 7900 GS PCIe Video Card + I-Pac mini (keyboard encoder) + ArcadePC Loader (RIV) = :D

So far, the PC, the Video Card, and the Loader are all working fine. Just waiting on the Pac to arrive. Playing RIV with a keyboard sucks. :lol:

Makes me wonder about shmuping on a Hit-Box though. :lol:

Good luck with it anyway! :)

I'll explain later.

But, basically, I upgraded my computer so the parts match one of theses:

And then I used it to run this:

Now, I'm waiting for DHL to deliver one of these so I can hook my Joys up to my computer and use those instead of my Keyboard.

After DHL delivers. I'll let you know how things worked out.
