In Brief: Ikaruga hits XBLA

Ikaruga, the bullet hell shooter to end all bullet hell shooters, has finally hit the Xbox Live Arcade. Originally released on the Dreamcast, then ported to the Gamecube, the game is infamous for its crushing difficulty. Here is what’s new to the downloadable version: 720p visuals, online co-op, replay video saving, and leaderboards. The game costs 800 points, or $10 IRL money, and is worth every penny.

The first person to rotate their 52″ plasma screen for the TATE mode wins the title of “Undisputed King of Gaming.”
