"DeathSmiles on the Xbox 360 is an arcade shooter game that will be coming out this June 26th. For an arcade shooter game like this, it’s typical for it to appear on the Xbox LIVE Arcade rather than in retail packaging. Now that I got the final build of the game in my hands, I spent several hours playing through the world of Gilverado, where the kingdom is plagued by monsters and disturbed souls. For “lolita” themed fans, this is a game the player will be looking forward to play as the characters are cute little girls trying to make the player drool while you shoot evil forces." - Just Push Start
"The Germany-based video game publisher Strictly Limited Games and the Japan-based game developer/publisher City Connection, are today very happy and excited to announce that Cave's classic arcade shmup "Deathsmiles I- II" is getting a Limited and Collector’s Edition to the PS4 and Nintendo Switch via the Strictly Limited Games Shop." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
I don't care for the series but as a collector of Limited Edition sets, I love that arrangement.
Shooting hordes of enemy forces while weaving through clouds of projectiles is as fun as it's always been. Very few consoles have a library of shmups as impressive as Xbox 360's so let's take a look at the 10 best shooters for Microsoft's sophomore console.
COG writes - A few may be turned off by its art style but Deathsmiles is every bullet hell fan's dream of a game.
