I’m not usually into scrolling shooters but I keep hearing this name banded about the place from even before it was being put onto X-Box Live. Is it worth me picking up if I’m a shooter newb?

Someone had previously (months ago) asked if you can still rotate your monitor to make use of the vertical aspect ratio, and the answer is yes.

I own the Dreamcast version. I could never get into the whole " 10 billion bullets onscreen and you have to use a special trick to dodge them oh and you have a hit box that is no bigger than a single pixel" type of shooters. I' ll stick with R-Type, MUSHA, Thunderforce, Gradius V (which comes close to wandering into the above genre) and the like.

The Xbox Live Arcade version of Ikaruga allows you to rotate the screen both to the left and right. So you' ve got clockwise and counter-clockwise covered.

So so so sweet.


It even let me choose a 16:10 aspect ratio. To bad 360 vga doesn' t support 1680x1050 and the game doesn' t render at that resolution. It still looks awesome scaling from 720p though. It kinda makes me wish my 46" tv rotated.

Here is a google video of it too.

Hellacool!

My 1920x1200 screen rotates.

I never used this feature before, thought it was pointless. Now I' m glad it' s there.
