Fans of 2D Shmups rejoice, the genre is still far from dead as you'll be able to see in this trailer of Söldner-X, to be released on PC at the end of 2007 and one day hopefully on PS3 too.
art direction looks a bit crap. ship design is poor, backdrops are crude and lack any perspective and the explosions look weak as well.
Ikaruga set the bar pretty high for schmups i'm afraid.

@Driftwood Awesome! I’m loving it! It does show a much crisper picture and the frame rate looks good! I was playing Stella Blade and Dragonball Soarkling Blast! :) (2 Weeks ago)

This game looks fab, its like a HD Gradius and thats good. I wish they had spelt it Röcket though :D
