Published by Konami and developed by Treasure (talk about pedigree), Gradius V is shaping up to be one of the most spectacular space-based shooters ever. We were lucky enough to play the game recently and can report that it’s shaping up to be nothing short of stunning. Unlike the recent R-Type Final, which overcomplicated matters with dozens of ships and hundreds of weapons, Gradius V is unashamedly old skool. The power-up system has been expanded, but it’ll be familiar to fans of the series, and the waves of alien craft are just as devious and as deadly as before. And of course, there are the huge end-of-level bosses. Obviously, the power of the PS2 hasn’t gone to waste – just look at some of the backdrops – but Gradius V places the emphasis firmly on 2D shoot-em-up action. The original Gradius game first graced arcades in 1985 (it was released in Europe as Nemesis). This was followed by four sequels, several spin-offs (including the two-player Salamander and the spoof Parodius) and numerous imitations. Gradius V is the first game of the series that won’t debut in the arcade, but its appearance on the PS2 should ensure it finds a wide audience. The game is due for release at the end of September, so there’s plenty of time to sharpen up your shooting skills before it arrives. The latest Gradius game features seven levels of frenzied shoot-em-up action **6** RETRO6 News.qxd 7/8/04 12:15 AM Page 7 It’s All Kicking Off Again Dino Dini returns with new football title After years on the sidelines, Kick confirmed.

Welcome To Commodore World! Latest Commodore products revealed The official Web portal for all Commodore-related items has finally been launched, rather hastily it would seem. Visit www.commodoreworld.com and you’ll find information about the latest official Commodore products available from Tulip Computers in association with other companies, including Ironstone Partners, which will be handling the gaming side, and Yeahronimo NV, which will provide legal movie and music downloads. More information about the C64 Direct-to-TV has also been announced. It will include 30 preinstalled games, be PAL and NTSC compatible, and will have a resolution of up to 320x240. Rumours about the device having an internal developer’s port have been quashed, as Tulip state that the device won’t initially support multiplayer functionality or game downloading. This has sparked rumours that future generations of the product will support these features, which would make sense since the Commodore World Web portal already offers legal game downloading – at cost, mind.
