This is probably my favorite Cave series, so I'm curious what we can expect! Thoughts?

Sounds awesome, but I'm not gonna have the chance to play it for awhile assuming the theoretical 360 port is region locked, Cave said Espgaluda II Black was going to be their last region free game.

Those amazing bastards! I'm hoping they will change their minds about the region locking. If this keeps up at some point I'll have to purchase an NTSC-J 360.

I wish they'd change their minds about PS3 (which is region-free BTW)

Based on the title alone, it sounds like an upgrade to DOJ.

I hope it's related to DOJ. DFK is great too, but DOJ is my favorite in the DonPachi series.

I know, right! They're a bit pricey but probably worth it. Play this along with Ketsui

NTSC-J 360 is totally worth it. But I am thinking about a US 360 as well because some games I wouldn't mind playing are region locked to NTSC-U/C

Cave released Muchi Muchi Pork/Pink Sweets region free last year, which was later than esp2.

This is definitely an iOS/Windows mobile release of Dai Ou Jou, which is quite exciting. I really enjoy the straight shoit-and-dodge simplicity of DOJ (Not considering scoring) As much as I like Dai Fukkatsu (Ressurection), the bullet-cancelling really makes it feel different from the previous entries in the series, where as Dai Ou Jou feels like the peak of the original Dodonpachi style.

I wonder if they will make Black Label available, or perhaps even a cool new arrange mode.

Considering the iOS has had ports of Dodonpachi Dai Fukkatsu, Espgaluda II, Deathsmiles, and the just recently-released Mushihimesama (Bug Princess), its really great to see yet another awesome Cave game get ported to a device that is more likely to get new players into the genre.

Oh, and to amyone wanting to try this game out on.something a bit larger, this game has 2 excellent ports (ps2 & 360), and runs perfectly in MAME (No surprise, considering the game is from 2001)
