i wish i had a time machine,cause i would go back to the day i had a brand new sealed copy of Radiant Silvergun in my hands and i put it back because i didnt wanna pay $29.99. ive been kicking myself ever since!!! biggest blunder of my life!!!
@Imtherealsaturnsonic - OUCH. OUCCCCCCCH. I know I'm not helping, but I made a blind purchase the first day it came out because I had some more to burn and I liked the name...wow...
I have noticed something. He says he is not good at A LOT of games. That is a true gamer. If you suck at something you don't care and keep on truckin'. Keep gaming Youtube.
my parents just asked me what i wanted for christmas and i said radiant silvergun and they said ok !!!! so they ordered me a minty complete with spine card copy for $190 and they got me a radiant silvergun tshirt to match.
I still remember playing this for the first time high as fuck. my buddy was like "you wanna play a crazy japanese shooting game?" I was like "yeah, i've played gradius back in the day"..... i had no idea.
@mitzibishi, from having played it for a short while, only your three 'main guns' (straight shot, homing and lock-on) can be actively upgraded. The other variations (minus the hyper sword) are different combinations of the main three, so let's say you've got both straight shot and homing up to level 2, then their combined shot (the two blue rays) should be stronger as well, I'd imagine. How do you upgrade? By 'chaining' i.e. only shooting enemies of one colour in succession with one weapon type.
I don't know why, but I keep comparing this game to the movie Armageddon. Both movies have doomsday plots, both released in the same year, 1998, and both came out in the summer, July of 1998. Could Radiant Silvergun be inspired by Armageddon?
@unprofessionalvids That's what they said about Ikaruga too. And they were right. Unfortunately I would not expect to see RS on PSN if Ikaruga didn't even manage to make it. Shame.
"Since it is a famous game, there's always those rumors circulating out there that finally it will be on XBLA or PlayStation or something, Vectrex." xDDDDD That part made me laugh pretty hard!
can anyone explain how the guns upgrade, theres only 1 faq out there and it doesnt explain very well. do they upgrade through general use or as i assume holding that gun on an enemy for a certain amount of bullets or time without missing and it will upgrade, but it only shows upgrades level for A,B,C onscreen. so what about the other guns, how do i know what level they are on? anyone got a list of how each gun upgrades?
@mitzibishi Your guns upgrade according to how many points you score using them. As for your four extra weapons, their levels are the sum of the weapon levels of the weapons that they are combinations of. For example, the A+C weapon (backwards machine gun) is the level of the sum of the levels of the A and C weapons.
There are actually a lot more copies of Radiant Silvergun out and about then a lot of people would want to make you beleave. Production wise there was at least 300,000 copies of this game made; not even close to "rare" at all Sega Saturn standards. Collectors both in Japan and the US drove the price of this game up and up and up almost from the day it came out. And to be honest, the game is not THAT expensive if you were to actually go to Japan and try to find a copy there.
Treasure DOMINATED the genesis and saturn! I haven't heard about this game since it was announced at the Tokyo game show 2010 that it was getting an XBLA port but I hope it is still happening. If not, still got the saturn hooked up.
what i like about classic game room reviews is that i get the impression that its being reviewed by the 'average joe' and i like that, im personally a video game nut and know a lot about games and feel radiant silvergun is the best vertical shooter ever made period, oh and original copies of games are always better than ports.
Well if someone feels like a download or a real copy are kinda the same thing, i can only feel very sad for that guy...
That just does not happen, to buy a rarity game and then hit your head into the wall because it is available for download. Everything is available for download for free, sorry if i shocked you.
@AMYuntold Rare games are also collectibles and as is with collectibles, they may be worth quite a lot in a few years time. If you bought this when it was new and then sell it now, there is chance of making a profit out of it.
I don't think they will ever release downloadable versions of this game because Treasure knows they can make more money by selling new copies of the Saturn game under the assumed identity of various private sellers for outrageous prices. (Endof: Conspiracy Theory.)
i played this game in italy, not many copies here..and it's insanely difficult, really, compared to ikaruga and bangai-o--this is much more frustrating, really for hardcore players.
Hyper Duel is more expensive...Saturn = the machine for expensive importgames.
Mixed feelings. Since I haven't bought this yet I'm sort of happy to hear it comes to XBLA (often destroys the value of games so it means it might get cheaper for me to get the original)...just hoping the SAT-shooters I already own dont. Might be cool for the casual gamer and all but it really shits on the collectors/those buying to play AND collect to have a 100$+ game suddenly get rereleased for nearly nothing.
THIS GAME WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE ON XBLA IN THE NEAR FUTURE!!!! YESSSS. It's confirmed. You can check out the trailer right now, right here on You Tube. It's really funny how Mark said he wouldn't want to be the guy who shoveled out hundreds for this game and have it pop up on XBLA the next week. I can't wait!!!
Jose in New Mexico... donation Sega Saturn game lot... Radiant Silvergun... ya, somehow all those words strung today either means that he is a gaint fucking idiot for donating this game, basically cuz anyone who owns this game KNOWS how much it's worth,,, OR his girlfriend got pissed at him and gave away all his stuff to various random people :-\
eitherway, what an idiot. well, atleast we got a review out of it. i've loved this game ever since it came out!
The one thing Mark failed to mention is the chain system,which enables you just to take out a certain colour of enemy all the way through a level to give you a much higher score,he also forgot to mention the ikaruga chain system(diffirent to the RS chain system)when he reviewed that game,which is a shame because they give both games massive replay value & adds to the overall greatness of both games!
Just about all shooters feel like clones of the same template, even on Saturn tbh.Radiant is the best shooter even if you don't prefer it as your fave shooter game. It just does things lesser shooters don't attempt and as a whole works so much better.Up there with Zelda Past, Zelda OOT, Mario64, Goldeneye, Halo1 etc
From a glance of the game or having not played it a massive ammount, then yes you could argue this but otherwise no way
So nice this is coming out next year on XBLA. We need Guardian heroes next. A lot of rare games from Treasure. They used to make less copies than demand back in the day for that exact reason.
@EricBarbman That's true. But the European video standard isn't the same as NTSC (America and Japan), so I doubt it would work on my TV. If I spoke Japanese, that would handle it there, as the Japanese version is also much cheaper.
But the video output would still come from your NTSC Saturn, once you can boot a euro cd with a dedicated cartridge. I play all my games this way on my japanese Saturn.
Best thing is to mod it, with a 50-60hz selector.
At least, your US box is nicer than the Euro one :-)
Sir, please do a review video of it! More people MUST know about DoDonPachi!!
As far as this games goes, I didn't like it that much, but I'm more of a high action type shmupper who doesn't really like to think over thumb twitching. I will say this for everyone reading these comments after watching this video: Do NOT pursue this title if you just want a quick high action game.
This IS coming to XBLA in early 2011,god bless treasure!I can't wait to play this game I owned for the saturn years ago b4 it became a collecters item,I got it for the normal import game price(£50)brand new.I just hope they stay true to the original when converting it to xbla,from the footage I've seen it looks like it won't dissapoint,especially the hd graphics.ROLL ON 2011!..!..!
wow. i bow to the person who donated this rare game with high respect. he might be one of the few ppl on this planet who are not greedy. most ppl who are selfish will call him stupid. i just call him a generous person.
btw. i would never worry if the game would be sold on XBLA. cuz for me owning a real copy of a game (and a real console) is much more worth as having a copy of the game on my XBLA. its something very different for me who loves to play orginal videogames on orginal consoles.
jeez. This guy who donated the game to Marc could've made an easy $200.00 + on amazon or Ebay selling this game. It's nice people are donating games to ClassicGameRoom, but h was downright stupid to part with something that valuable. Good review anyway Marc.
6:38 Damn, that last part looked hard as hell. Shame they don't make games like they used too. May as well go beat that new game I got in under seven hours, with great graphics, yet not challenging and with no re-playability. *sigh* I sorta miss the old days.
@Luiscota1986 It's not rare at all. In fact, it is one of the most common saturn games in Japan. Expensive, you bet. I think ever since the American market wanted it, Japanese vendors charged outrageous prices just so the can make a quick buck.
@TheDeathcoreGamer I know that problem very well since I bouth Demon´s souls from an american distribuitor some years ago before it was realesse in Europe.
@Luiscota1986 I remember that too. It was even impossible to get in the states for a period of time, but I remember everyone in Europe had to pay a ridiculous amount to get it. I hate when that happens!
Um, why the hell is a Japanese orientated shmup gonna be EXCLUSIVE to XBLA? It's no secret that support for 360 in Japan is a Baron's wasteland. Just curious.
Did you tell Jose the asking price for that game before he donated it to you? If I were Jose, I'd feel completely ripped off - trying to do you a favor, but not knowing that I could get a lot of money for that which could be used to buy around 10 new games.
I recommend that you send this game back to Jose after you're done with it.
@Rationalific I don't feel ripped-off at all. i just wanted someone who appreciates good videogames like Mark, to be able to play this great game without having to break the bank.
@malevolentburrito Thank you Jose I've been waiting for CGR to review this game. It is one of the reasons I bought a Saturn but I wanted to hear what Mark thought of it before considering purchasing a copy.
This game is actually coming to XBLA next year. But yeah it's not really rare, it's just in high demand. A couple years ago you could walk into any used game store in Japan and get it fro under $30. Store owners got smart though and have been pulling their copies off shelves and putting it up on ebay.
@bean420man nes games are piss cheap so are super nintendo game genesis etc , so sure u can skip buying the expensive games but you can atleast buy the real deal cheap games
i wonder if the guy who donated this knew that this game costs 500$...hmmm...well maybe his shit in his pants when he heard you say this game costs hundreds of dollars and regrets this donation lol unless he knew..that way he'll be a really nice guy for donating this.
Hey man, no Guardian Heroes review?

@Luiscota1986 It's not rare at all. In fact, it is one of the most common saturn games in Japan. Expensive, you bet. I think ever since the American market wanted it, Japanese vendors charged outrageous prices just so the can make a quick buck.

@TheDeathcoreGamer I know that problem very well since I bouth Demon´s souls from an american distribuitor some years ago before it was realesse in Europe.
Luiscota1986 1 year ago
@Luiscota1986 I remember that too. It was even impossible to get in the states for a period of time, but I remember everyone in Europe had to pay a ridiculous amount to get it. I hate when that happens!

Um, why the hell is a Japanese orientated shmup gonna be EXCLUSIVE to XBLA? It's no secret that support for 360 in Japan is a Baron's wasteland. Just curious.

@strykah92 Same reason the original RS was on Saturn and not PS1 Treasure just likes releasing games on consoles with low popularity for some reason.

Why on earth would Jose just give away a game that is so rare and valuable? Did he know how much it was worth? I hope you send it back to him!
drleatherface 1 year ago
Did you tell Jose the asking price for that game before he donated it to you? If I were Jose, I'd feel completely ripped off - trying to do you a favor, but not knowing that I could get a lot of money for that which could be used to buy around 10 new games.
I recommend that you send this game back to Jose after you're done with it.

@Rationalific I don't feel ripped-off at all. i just wanted someone who appreciates good videogames like Mark, to be able to play this great game without having to break the bank.

@malevolentburrito Thank you Jose I've been waiting for CGR to review this game. It is one of the reasons I bought a Saturn but I wanted to hear what Mark thought of it before considering purchasing a copy.

This game is actually coming to XBLA next year. But yeah it's not really rare, it's just in high demand. A couple years ago you could walk into any used game store in Japan and get it fro under $30. Store owners got smart though and have been pulling their copies off shelves and putting it up on ebay.

Actually I seen it on ebay for $200. Even in the Buy It Now section. x:

The $500 Mark quoted for this game is totally wrong. There are Buy it Nows on Ebay for $200. Others sell for a lot less than that.
