Because the PS2 connector can be cheaply and easily adapted to the most consoles.
Plus, this is a hand-built tournament stick, and hardcore tourneys have no need for modern consoles. There's a bit of flirting/pandering with SF4 and BlazBlue, but massive, high-level tournament play is still on MvC2 and SF 3rd Strike.
AWESOME! So now that it's officially out, I won't have to create a new world and lose all my effort and work every single time they add some new terrain code or implement a new geographical feature, RIGHT?!?
Anyone else find it weird that this article talks about a potential Turrican reboot, but then links to another article, which then links to a Joystiq article from 2007 that said there was a Turrican reboot in the works?
Great game. My first playthrough was painful (as it is for everyone), and took me about 62 hours. I started NG+ and rang the first bell in about an hour, no deaths. My jaw was agape, ha ha. In Demon's Souls, NG+ was just as hard as the game was the first time. So either I metagamed too much knowing about the upgrade system and making more refined choices (I do have a Lightning Winged Spear +5 and about 260 effective armor points in CLOTH, packing a Dark Wood Grain Ring, lol), or the NG+ just isn't as challenging as Demon's Souls.
I've basically been spending my entire NG+ hanging out in Darkroot Garden PvP-ing.
