Triggerheart Exelica Enhanced

I recently saw some gameplay footage of Triggerheart Exelica Enhanced and became interested in it. The enhanced version is simply a PS2 port of the game with some added content. Looking at the OP video, the characters along with their weaponry reminds me of the anime Sky Girls.

Gameplay footage using the character Faintear:

Judging from the gameplay, it’s similar to other “bullet hell” shooters like Touhou Project except that you are able to grab flying enemies and throw them. Unfortunately, the PS2 version has not been brought stateside, but it seems to be available on Xbox Live (and the Xbox is the only console I don’t have, go figure). Definitely looks like fun and I plan on trying it out sometime soon.

Fate/Unlimited Codes

For those Fate/stay night fans out there (like myself), there is a 3D Melty Blood type fighting game out for the PS2 in Japan. As you would expect from the title of this blog, the character I use in this game is Saber in her unlockable fourth costume of Saber Lily. This game has been quite fun even though I am still trying to learn the more advanced combos for Saber shown at the Fate/Unlimited Codes Wiki.

You can see for yourself how the game is like through this trailer:

Besides the 3D aspect, Fate/Unlimited Codes differs from the well known Melty Blood due to the possibility of infinite combos. This basically turns it into a battle of whoever makes the first vital mistake. The menu screen song is Code by Tainaka Sachi who has also done the OPs for the Fate/stay night anime series.

Feel like playing this game yet?

It also seems that they’re porting it to the PSP, be on the lookout for it!
