There was DLC for the Japanese release of the UD HD. The grey helicopter (with the V spread shot) is a DLC component for both the PS3 and 360 releases in Japan. The red helicopter (which is a repaint of the large blue enemy helicopters) is an exclusive to the US/EU release.
What I love most about Mark and CGR is that although I don't own any current generation consoles not do I really play games anymore (something I am planning to change) I always look forward for his reviews, even if the games reviewed are obscure. Thanks alot CGR for all the hours of entertainment you have given me for free!
I like that the smoke is affected by the explosions even if they are a bit clunky at times. Nice music! I like special editions with an actual artbook that I can hold in my hands.
I wish Under Defeat HD Deluxe was ported to the PS Vita. I maintain that side-scrollers can still find a welcome home on handheld consoles. Such look like anachronistic throwbacks on modern consoles and HDTVs, but they look good on the small screen of handhelds. Like how well the Metal Slug arcade games translate well on the PSP even though the screen aspects don't match. Need an Under Defeat for the Vita for defeat on the go!
This is a rather easy game to get the platinum trophy for though. Not only can you obtain infinite credits and there's checkpoints everywhere, but two player makes it so both must be dead at the same time before actually getting a game over. You can also make it so u got 5 lives per credit, where each time you start out with 2 bombs. It's a rather easy game. Even if you had to do it in 2 credits on hardest difficulty it wouldn't have been hard.
And that's exactly why I suggested that in this instance, you don't know what you're talking about. Yes... they could have gotten rid of the slowdown. However in shmup games keeping the original slowdown IS part of the game. It allows time to maneuver. In fact the outcry from the community in games where the slowdown was altered has been considerable. So keeping the slowdown in the game is a design choice, not lazy programming.
id buy this game but at a 40 $ price tag on eBay I'm not so sure when HLTB says the main quest takes 1 and a half hour to complete... I'm pretty sure it's a typo though.
I just got my copy today. This will sit proudly next to my dreamcast copy of the game. Such a great game, I wish more shmups would come out on the ps3.
You're entitled to your opinion, absolutely. You still have no idea what you are talking about. It's not a lazy port at all. It's a completely upgraded yet still arcade perfect translation. This is one of the most sought after Dreamcast games... and those in the shmup community were glad to get an updated version for a reasonable price.
so, game, that originally was released in 2006 for dead dreamcast gets a hd remake and deluxe edition of that hd remake? I love shmups, but that's just silly...
I used to play it in my DC with the vga box and, besides the "widescreen" mode, i can't tell any difference, even the game still struggles when there's a lot of explosions, i used to think that DC's power was really challenged when so happened (very often), but i see neither the PS3 could handle the framerate... Ha!
Future PS3 Holy Grail status confirmed! Just scored my CIB North American copy from a dirty stinking Gamestop a few weeks ago for only $17! ALL HAIL UNDER DEFEAT HD DELUXE EDITION!! ALL HAIL LORD KARNAGE!!
I'll chime a bit here, there was no DLC released for the JP edition, those two new helicopters are exclusive to the Rising star port, in fact the "Red overpowered chopter" is aluded to Rising star, the downside of this is that you cannot compete against the japanese insane leaderboards so we are stuck fighting against EU-US versions :/.
If anyone could tell me where to get this game in Colorado I would share some tips I have about making your own cool pants to save money and will give links to help! I can make NES, SNES, Genesis and gameboy pants right now and am always learning/making new pairs! Thanks for the help!!
One of the few SHMUP I had fun with on DC. However, I suck at these games, so it's difficult to justify more than $5-10 on a game I may not be able to beat. Also, no online co-op? Kind of bummer...
Sorry this shit is hot!! Love these arcady shmups but I'm kind of dissapointed with Ps3's selection of these type of games, 360 is where it's at with classic 2D arcade retro re-releases like the Cave shmups & DoDonpachi Deleuxe which are the cream of the crop.
you just made me buy this game my good sir. Ahh, I can always count on you CGR.
Expensive game now.
Awesome game! A bit of slow down but that has saved me on numerous occasions! Great review again and always mark!
This is all I wanted to hear, thanks for this amazing fulfilling review

I never tire of Mark's reviews. Don't stop anytime soon.

Mark is one of the last reviewers that doesn't suck, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!
Mark great review as always

A little off topic, but do you like the Insignia brand TV? I've seen them around, but I'm always nervous about brands I'm not too familiar with.
I might just get this, retro games interest me more these days.

Do you need to use both analog sticks during gameplay? I may want to use my arcade stick and it seems that one stick may not be enough to play it.
I like how it slows down the game when a big explosion happens like in classic scrolling shooters.
now if I buy the game digitally on PSN will I get some kind of OST digital download like I would likely get if STEAM had the game?
Does it have online co-op?
And that's exactly why I suggested that in this instance, you don't know what you're talking about.

I can't find the 360 version anywhere.
Thanks CGR, I didn't even know about the DLC
How much was it?
How long is this game?
I just got my copy today. This will sit proudly next to my dreamcast copy of the game. Such a great game, I wish more shmups would come out on the ps3.
hey Mark these game was released for the sega dreamcast! in 2007 I belive
Can I get a list of similar games for PS3 as well?
What , no transforming el camino ?
Reminds me a little of 1943 on the NES with the battleship bosses. The game does have massive slowdown, though. It's like R-Type Final all over again.
Got this for the Dreamcast, its awesome
Under Defeat - the 2nd best vertically scrolling import shoot em up with a rotating helicopter on the Dreamcast!
You're entitled to your opinion, absolutely. You still have no idea what you are talking about.
It's not a lazy port at all. It's a completely upgraded yet still arcade perfect translation. This is one of the most sought after Dreamcast games... and those in the shmup community were glad to get an updated version for a reasonable price.
$2.50 on PSN right now for the summer sale.
2.69 on PSN RIGHT NOW
2.99 if you don't have ps+
I actually bought it for this price 5 years ago after watching this review and reading this comment.
That's the joy of CGR!
I'm sad you didn't choose the Dreamcast version to review.
It reminds me of that NES horizontal scroller 1942. Must be that red helicopter that kind of looks like the 1942 plane.
You should review d force for snes
Looks freaking awesome!!!
Tore this up on the Dreamcast, surprised to see it get this kind of treatment today
so, game, that originally was released in 2006 for dead dreamcast gets a hd remake and deluxe edition of that hd remake?
I love shmups, but that's just silly...
I hope he does one of those extremely long reviews for Grand Theft Auto V when it comes out, can you guys like this so he'll see?
How the hell do you get slowdown on a PS3? That has got to be some sloppy coding, or intentional.
review the neo geo x gold
i agree, i would love to play the new dodonpachi games on my ps3
Yeah I noticed that too, it looks like it does.
I used to play it in my DC with the vga box and, besides the "widescreen" mode, i can't tell any difference, even the game still struggles when there's a lot of explosions, i used to think that DC's power was really challenged when so happened (very often), but i see neither the PS3 could handle the framerate... Ha!
Naomi can
@@adamluck7865 I'd like to play it, maybe I'll look for an emulator

For PS+ users, it's on sale for 2 bucks until 8/4/15. I just might cop it.
I know! I am getting it right. Such a steal man.
Mark, will you be doing your Annual Top Games Of The Year? He you do, bring back that coked up Chicken *lol* he's awesome!
The widescreen mode looks a bit odd and unwieldy but can't go wrong with the original anyway.
The Dreamcast version doesn't have slowdowns.
aerogun18 the dreamcasr version is really expensive
If anyone could tell me where to get this game in Colorado I would share some tips I have about making your own cool pants to save money and will give links to help! I can make NES, SNES, Genesis and gameboy pants right now and am always learning/making new pairs! Thanks for the help!!
Yeah! It's weird see great arcade games like this on phisical media... It's a condivisible statment but, at the same time, it's so sad...
Reminds me of Soviet Strike.
The shoes are Under Defeat.
did anyone say, under defeat DELUXE EDITION?
Must buy for any one if you don't own the dreamcast version ~_^
I will surely pick up the 360 version! :)
This and Zero Gunner 2 are both top-down shmups with helicopters and they're both on Dreamcast, but I prefer Zero Gunner 2.
One of the few SHMUP I had fun with on DC.
However, I suck at these games, so it's difficult to justify more than $5-10 on a game I may not be able to beat.
Also, no online co-op? Kind of bummer...
You had me at twinsticks!
I had absolutely no idea this game even existed oO
Currently 50% off on PSN for European gamers and 90%!! if you have PS+
The music is so fucking awesome! The classic soundtrack is better thou.
Mark reminds me of Coop from Megas XLR.
My parrot likes to listen to your voice
I wish this game on my PSP!
Finally a retail shmup for the ps3, usually the 360 get those...
No, put the money into getting an HDTV...then buy this game.
The Samsung UN32EH4003 is great for the money.
i hav it on my dreamcast. I couldnt finish this game :( the last stage music is awesome
This game is like Super Thunder Blade fo the Sega Mega Drive (Genesis) but completely different....... :-)
there's allot of free doujin shmups out their to download. Check out Crimzon Clover, that shit is dope.
Is it just me or does the game appear to have some massive slow-down at times?
Wtf. How come I haven't heard of this release for the PS3!
I think every episode of CGR is a Deluxe Edition.
i.e. comes with extra cheese!
Just Cool REMADE Dreamcast Game!!!
I know someone who doesn't like cgr. Shall we slay him?
Buying this is a vote with your wallet for the future of the genre at large.
Sorry this shit is hot!! Love these arcady shmups but I'm kind of dissapointed with Ps3's selection of these type of games, 360 is where it's at with classic 2D arcade retro re-releases like the Cave shmups & DoDonpachi Deleuxe which are the cream of the crop.
Do you still play this game? if you done with it can I have it? haha.
Mark, review Raystorm! THERES A HD REMAKE :D
The Dreamcast version is really hard to get.
Dr. Abby Sinian. Nicee.
I need this!
No idea. It was plastered all over PSN and Playstation websites ;]
Mark must have so many bronze trophies from so many games he reviews on the Ps3 ._.
Just bought a Xbox 360 and this game which cost me £9 brand new.
The box said 1 player, so no luck there.
Tiger Heli 2012.
cool repiew
I`m not late.
Hell yeah!
Smoke physics! So deluxe!
he just never tasted the ones in salt
only the ones in vinegar
"NO PICKLES"
on the ps3, that is)
With the pass!
mark has clones just watch some of his older videos. i know theres at least one video that has triple marks
