Your Gamecube is allergic to the radio
By Stephen Munn | January 12, 2007
Anyone play Chaos Field, or Chaos Field Expanded? Check it out at Wikipedia, I’ll wait.
Welcome back. Chaos Field is a shmup, one of the many games I wanted to play but haven’t gotten to picking up yet.
The makers of Chaos Field, Milestone, have another space shooter called Radiljy that came out in Japan last year on the Gamecube. O~3 Entertainment will be localizing it for the US market, and releasing it here as “Radio Allergy”.
From the screens, it’s looking cel-shaded. Let me say it: a cel-shaded shmup! It’s like there’s a party in my mouth where everyone’s invited!
Read more about the game at Wikipedia as well, if you like.
Anyone who has stuffed their Gamecube in a dark corner somewhere to make room for the Wii could, of course, play this on there. And one day, I’ll have a widescreen plasma which I will mount on the wall vertically and only use to play my space shooters as arcade-intended.
Thanks, Kotaku.

I didn’t get the picture on this one until the last sentence. (yeah I’m dense) but I love that the pictures at Aeropause are not completely self explanatory. Most sites would have had some bullshit space shooter pic invoking zero thought. Bullets are much better. Even if they are just .22s.

“Chaos Field is a shmup, one of the many games I wanted to play but haven’t gotten to picking up yet.”
Don’t try the japanese version on a non-japanese Game Cube, it will wipe out your memory card.

Yeah, but it does ask you politely if you are sure you want to format your card, doesn’t it?
Anyway, I just hooked my GC back up this week. Some 16X9 media doesn’t look right on it. (Eternal Darkness looked really weird…)
The reason it was hooked back up was for the Konga drum games, Metroid and RE4. I’ve never heard of the games you mentioned above, but I love shooters.
