I've been anticipating this game all year, I bought it as soon as it came up on XBLA without even trying the demo.

I thought Bangai-O Spirits was a decent shooter, but this game looks much faster and bigger. I might post some thoughts on it once I try it out.

Is anyone else going to get this, or at least try it out for a few seconds?

Bought it.  Enjoying it quite a bit.

Rather high level of difficulty

I'll get it, but if it's anything like the DS version, I'll be able to finish like three levels.

Just bought it. It's been great so far.

Loved the Dreamcast version so I'm missing being a tiny sprite. Also it doesn't seem to have the same batshit story/dialogue from it either it seems.

I already managed to get a handful of the achievements (Including the "Exact Counter" achievement - which requires a counter to be released EXACTLY as the invulnerability wears off)

One thing about online, though - it seems to be limited to what the host player has unlocked or available.

Amazing game even if it whips my ass
