I know we have some shooting fans here. There's a new version (port?) of Battle Garegga coming to PS4 this week.

This is one of those fancy mid-'90s arcade & Saturn era shooters. I like the visual aesthetics of those ones. And it's been mentioned in our BGE!!! Contests every once in a while. Interesting to see PSN becoming a home for left-field arcade ports like this.

Very cool. This has come highly recommended by a friend of mine. I'll have to check it out.

And yeah, I actually found it super ironic that the 360 was last generation's home for ports like these. That runs so contrary to what the typical Xbox market is (ie, Western games and particularly gritty FPS games).

Anyway, cool to see this.

Unrelated except thematically: Raiden V Director's Cut is coming to PSN as well.

Shocker: I bought this at launch. It's EFFING AMAZING. Brutally hard though, this is an expert's shooter.

Raiden V is either happening soon or at Christmas. We'll see if I can hold out.
