Guardian Heroes

[Flake]

Still have yet to play this game. Been tossing around the idea of modding my Saturn since buying this game is out of the question for me. After what I've seen this should be good. Treasure hasn't put out a game I didn't like.

One question, I know there is 6 player versus mode but what about the actual story mode? How many players is that?

Just two players with a choice of 4 characters for the first run through, and 5 for subsequent run throughs. The Golden Warrior is still present, effectively making your team 3 warriors for most of the game.

FOR REAL

I played around with the XBLA version of this a little bit recently and I think it's an amazing port. Unless you're one of those guys hung up on the new translation, there's not much reason to play the Saturn original over this for any reason other than nolstalgia. Though I do hate using the 360 controller for a game like this. It just doesn't seem up to the task

Aside from that though, it's pretty awesome. You get the original plus a cool remix mode with improvements to gameplay and graphics. It's awesome playing this on a good, modern flatscreen too. I think this game sets a pretty good standard for how to do enhanced HD ports of old classics properly

I got my ass kicked pretty hard. It's easy to forget how frikking fast everything happens in this game. You blink and half your health bar has just been raped away by some random enemy. I started doing a little better as I remembered all of Nicole's little tricks. She still owns this game, but damn I wish I had a Saturn pad to play this on.

I stopped playing Guardian Heroes on a pad a long time ago. Try it out with an arcade stick if you have one. A six button traditional street fighter layout is all you need.

Yeah, those things seem kind of pricey. Plus, I've always been more of a D-pad guy anyway. I think this game would play better for me with a PS3 controller, but they opted to release this as a 360 exclusive. I actually like seeing exclusives. It's such a rare thing these days, I just wished they had picked the PS3 instead LOL. I'll keep an eye out for any deals on an arcade stick. It's not a d-pad, but it still beats the 360 controller.

Try out the Mad Catz pads or even the PDP Microswitch pad. They should work well with Guardian Heroes.

The PDP fighter pad is awesome. It has the clicky thumbstick reminiscent of the NGCD controllers, and a 6 button layout. You can get them brand-new at GS for 15 bucks.

It's all I use to play fighters and shmups on 360. I even use it for MAME as well.

I've got a cheap WWE Brawl Stick from Mad Catz. It's basically a slightly better version of their standard edition SFIV stick and it's only around $30 on Amazon. It's extremely good for the price and mindlessly easy to mod with higher quality parts later down the line.

what do you mean it's slightly better than the SF4 stick? It's the same thing. Same body, same buttons, same stick.

It has muscular men on the front?
