That looks fantastic. I just hope it doesn't have major slowdown issues like Advance Guardian Heroes.

It's inevitable but I don't mind a little slowdown. I mean even Astro Boy has some but in Guardian Heroes it's pretty crippling at times.

Oh wow! I love gunstar heroes! Looks good, just hope it doesn't get changed too much from the original.

Looks beauteous.

BETTER have multiplayer. Link cables are cheaper than cigarettes.

looks cool, im a bit ashamed to admit i never played the original, but it still looks cool, and treasure being involved is a good sign

the game looks great, especially the bosses!

but unfortunately...

Sounds interesting. I heard Guardian Heroes was disappointing though...

yeah i think a lot of people were dissappointed with Advance Guardian Heroes since fans expected a lot especially after Astroboy, hopefully they'll hit the spot with this one.
