<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->I've been looking everywhere for Ikaruga - can't find it, it's too expensive, or just sold out. They say it's an easy game to beat (rather, quick), but also say that it's not how fast you beat the game, but rather how the art you use to beat it is wielded. ^^;

Hello and Welcome to AP!

<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->No idea where you're at, but for the North American market, the Gamecube version should be pretty cheap now. I've seen it new for $20 USD. The Dreamcast version (which is the version to get unless you have a NAOMI and a few hundred bucks to drop on one game) will still hit you for $50, plus you need to be able to play Asia region games. But yeah, Ikaruga is as much a puzzle game as it is a shooter. Yeah, it's short, but it's very intense. Most people can't beat it until they unlock Free-Play mode (unlimited credits).

Am a bit wary, because of other forums am in, and yeah... there was a huge flame war because some kid said "Merry Christmas" and a few "Wiccans" and atheists completely massacred the kid.. so I always ask permission first before posting about religious themes. ^^;;;
