New Gunstar Heros For GBA

Neitokun writes "1up.com is reporting that there is going to be a Sequel to Gunstar Heros for the Gameboy Advance. Called Gunstar Super Heros, game appears close to the action-y style of the original. The production company, Treasure, appears to be concerned more about quality than just making a sale-worthy game. From the article: 'We're not going to make a sequel just because it would sell. That would be a disaster.'"

    Didn't they also do last year's critically acclaimed GBA Astro Boy: Omega Factor? I really liked it. The second time through (to get the real ending) is significantly harder... I think; at least one of the bosses is. I haven't played it in a little while.

    I'm looking forward to Gunstar Heroes, though. I played the Genesis game once, and it had the bizarre and hectic feel that Bangai-O can have, only constant and faster. This seems great for the GBA.

    There are lots of 2d side-scrollers for the GBA. What's noteworthy about this one? Was the original especially noteworthy in some way?

  3. Multiplayer? by Valcoramizer · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I don't know about anyone else, but my favorite part about Gunstar Heroes was the multiplayer. I dearly hope that multiplayer co-op will be included on the cart, and hopefully single cart so there is a chance of somebody else playing with you. I also wonder how they would pull off multiplayer with such a small screen; would it be free ranging for both player? Or possibly four players? I can only say, I can't wait.
