What I like about it is that it has music that sounds like John Frusciante’s early solo albums.

That is a good thing.

It’s a dot actually. And it’s a lot more interesting than a static ship. It displays a tonne of information including: points, points to next life, lives and more, (can’t remember what else).

It also animates directly with your action: moving, shooting, picking up points. The animations are procedural and non-static, therefore you never see the same thing twice.

I think the dot is a lot more interesting than the ships in ikaruga, rsgun or any other shooter you can think of.

Ok yeah, I guess both Ikaruga and Rez are minimalist shooters, but I wasn’t really referring to the mechanics but the graphics etc. You know, they actually bothered to make ships and characters for those games. In this game you play a… ball.

Can someone please tell me what’s special about this game? No matter how i look at it, it still looks like your everyday shooter to me (awesome pun intended). Is it just hyped up so much or am i missing something? I NEED TO KNOW!

Rz., agreed, now there’s something sexy for everyone to look forward to.

I heard on Kotaku that there are talks of a multi-game deal with Jon on PS3, much like with Jenova Chen…

assumes faux-hipster posture

Ikaruga is a minimalist shooter, little man. An example of a maximalist shooter would be its prequel, Radiant Silvergun, or the seminal Donpachi series.

Too bad it’s coming out for the inherently limited market of PS3 owners. Why is it that the most appealing games for the PS3 (barring MGS4) are PSN games? I really want to play this and echochrome. Pity.

Hmm. I love shooters. I love “abstract” games. But somehow this doesn’t do it for me. Maybe I’m just a sucker for maximalist games. Can’t wait for Ikauga and Rez to hit Xbox Live.

Capitalism has its good aspects.

Though I too want this on the PC NOW. Too sexy.

I really hope this comes to different platforms, because it looks like ten kinds of nifty. Stupid capitalism.

PSN?? Oh boy! A whole five people will play it, and four of them will say “WTF? This isn’t Madden!”

Wake me when it comes to PC or 360.
