Well to be honest i haven't had time to play it, after having to go to a London Hospital for a personal reason. However i have played it for at least an hour and all i can say is SUPERB. I will hopefully be able to answer your questions and do a more In-Depth type of review around this time tomorrow, but if there's any questions about Japanese text, all i can say is there is alot of it and it might put you off, if your interested in the story etc.. However it hasn't stopped me from playing it!!! Sorry about the delay but you can rest assured that it's fantastic and no let-down! :) Sorry again.

Only just noticed this post, yesasia want over £40 for Do Don Pachi D...., and I don't suppose Goblin have it in stock so I have sent you an email if you could give me details of your Jap contact (I think you have done before but I couldn't find his address - IT people moaned at me last week for having 2338 emails in my In-box and 73mb taken up so had to delete a few)

thanks

Yeah mate, I've had Psyvariar for a few months now. I got that and Dodonpachi from a contact of mine who lives out in Japan and runs a small service where he can get you pretty much any Japanese release.

Goblin are pretty good. Although, I reckon your best bet mate would be to go to - http://www.yesasia.com.

Failing that, if you want me to hook you up with my Japanese contact, drop me a line at [email protected]

Death Race was in F-Zero X on the N64. You had to eliminate everyone by knocking them off the course.

Bleeders; Psyvariar has still not been released by Xplosiv, did you buy your copy on import ? and where did you get Dodonpachi Daioujou from ? This game is next on my list, Goblin seems best bet, no copies on ebay (except from Hong Kong).

PS. What's your best scores on Ikaruga and DoDon ?

On F-Zero X there was the death race on the main menu where you had to kill everyone with a spin attack or by knocking them off the course. There was a records table for your best times on it.

I don't exactly get what you mean by 'Death Race' but there is a race in Story mode where you have to attack 30 cars and your rival with spin attacks to blow them up. VERY DIFFICULT. :)

TO show how "Hardcore" they are mind you.

I am the ultimate elite. I never lose.

That's cause I'm an elitist. ;)

I sit on my chair high-above you mere mortals, declaring my hardcore nature, whilst grasping Dodonpachi Daioujou in one hand and Tam Tam Paradise in the other.

Ha.
