so this could mean espgalauda2,ketsui and dodonpachi da fakkutsa could be next.

YAY! I love it when it's region free!

+1 for the truth..
bambi did you get raiden fighters aces or raiden 4 for your 360??

double post sorry.
there is a chance that deathsmiles could be getting localised for othere territories and there could be some cave shooters coming to xbla.but this is all up in the air at the moment.

I did get Raiden Fighter Aces but it's the US version. Can't seem to find Raiden 4 anywhere local yet but im looking!

ive got raiden fighters aces and raiden 4 as well,but obviously i have a pal machine so im just hoping that region free hack comes along.
watch this they will probably get pal releases nect year by 505 street or some other random publisher in europe.
