«©NCSX» You remember Super Star Soldier, right? Well, probably not. It's been over 20 years since Hudson released SSS on the PC-Engine and 5 years since it was made available on Virtual Console. Even if you don't remember SSS, we're here to tell you that it was/is a fairly intense shooter.
5pb remembers Star Soldier... so much, that they're paying homage to the game by way of an upcoming Xbox 360 shooter dubbed Bullet Soul Tama Tamashii. Similar to SSS, Bullet Soul is a vertical shooter where the enemies swoop in and unleash a barrage of buckshot. Unlike SSS however, Bullet Soul adds a new wrinkle to the shooting action where enemy bullets are rendered harmless and "ghosted" when the source of said bullets is destroyed. By collecting the ghost bullets, the player's Soul Gauge fills up and the score multiplier is ramped up for mega scoring opportunities. The game features three selectable heroes and an Arcade Mode as well as a Boss Rush Mode to mix up the antics.
The first printing of Bullet Soul includes a bonus Original Soundtrack with tracks composed by Kenji Itou and Kouta Takahashi who make up the group RESONATOR. Preorders are welcome to ship on April 7, 2011.
