I've played through the first two stages and have really enjoyed it so far. I'm by no means a hardcore SHMUP aficionado or anything...just a casual fan of the genre since the early Genesis SHMUP days. I usually play them on the easiest difficulty and just try to blast through to the end.
It looks and sounds incredible. It's pretty hard though. On "Very Easy" mode it's tough enough that I run out of all my lives after ~40% completion. Not Ikaruga tough, but it still will require practice. Well worth $9.99 IMO.

I'll be downloading this and SSFIIHDR as soon as Virgin come and sort my internet out on Monday. iPhone posting FTW! Apparently some of the issues with the PC version have been addressed so I'm quite looking forward to it.
The game has a pure European shooter feel… tough popcorn enemies, health bar, random bullet fire…
One thing I do not like are the invisible barriers on the top and bottom… That gets annoying as you see an enemy you want to shoot OR you are trying to dodge and you cannot fly down or up enough, it is like hitting a wall
The game look very beautiful though. The default is set on easy. I didn't know at first as I was searching for my score in the rankings and started looking in normal and then looked to find it in easy score table.
OF NOTE:
If you are a fan of manic danmaku shooting game, this will surely disappoint. For me I don't pledge allegiance to a one developer or style… I am a fan of ALL shooting game.
I'll get this once it's released in Europe next week. You can't go wrong with a silly German title anyway :D

This was released on the European PSN today. It certainly looks very nice but I'm not overly impressed at the moment. Maybe I need to play it a bit more but it certainly hasn't clicked with me yet. And yes, those invisible barriers are fucking annoying.
SSF2THDR still isn't up on the EU PSN though, and that's really starting to take the piss. Capcom could at least issue a statement if there's some sort of problem, especially considering the length of the delay. I was really hoping to get it for Xmas.
