It just felt a little slower to me. When there was slight slowdown it seemed more noticeable. Kind of like how when I go from the DC version of Triggerheart Exelica to the PS2/360 version the PS2/360 versions feel very sluggish. Seems like there is more slowdown, and when there is slowdown it is more extreme.

The first place it really jumped out at me was during the boss fight with the two sword guys (I think 3-2, the one hashiriya1 mentioned). During one of the later phases where the screen is pretty much filled with bullets, the game was straight up crawling. Other than that the slowdown isn't that bad, boss fights are the only place it really jumps out.

bruno the BC PS3 I have is the software version and the game glitches, slows down, etc. Runs fine on the PS2.

First run of the day:

dsheinem - 709,588,810 - Kohtarou - 3-1 - PS2

So that's how you use Ko :)

I get some slowdown for about half of the 2nd phase of the 3-2 boss.

I have not seen the 3-2 boss yet, but no slowdown on the DC version anywhere prior to 3-1.

Made it!

Spyke - 1,009,781,600 - Kuga1 - 3-1 - PS2

Funny, when I first got this game I liked it, but delving into it deeper for this thread has made me realise it's probably one of my all time favourites. Anybody else love the music too?
