An Updated Re-release labeled " Deadstorm Pirates: Special Edition" was released to arcades in 2014 that adds two new levels and expands the ending.
The game hit the arcades in 2009 and was ported to PlayStation 3 using the Move controls as a bonus game to Razing Storm, along with Time Crisis 4, and as a stand-alone title on the PlayStation Network.
Some cabinets are also equipped with a "Ship's wheel" mechanism, a free-spinning wheel between the two players which must occasionally be used to dodge attacks, charge their own attacks, or steer a vehicle away from obstacles and hazards. The players may also focus their crosshairs on one small area of the screen, which will cause their two crosshairs to merge into one that deals bonus damage on enemies, making it useful for attacking more durable enemies. The game itself is fairly standard so far as Light Gun games go, though it offers a few unique mechanics For one, the game actually encourages teamwork, placing them in situations where it is more ideal for one player to focus on taking out weak points on a boss, while the other keeps enemy swarms at bay. Luckily for this band of adventurers, Eric and Leah have the rare weapons, the Golden Guns, and are more than ready to take on all comers. To do so, they must brave supernatural enemies who guard the island where the Poseidon's Breath awaits, including Captain Vincent, the former captain of the ghost ship. Players take control of two pirates named Eric and Leah, part of a crew that is looking for a treasure said to be aboard a lost galleon known as Poseidon's Breath. Its definitely worth more than a 6.0! At least 8.5 because of the sheer value, variety even if one of the 4 games doesn't live up to it.Deadstorm Pirates is a pirate-themed Light Gun Game from Namco.
Its also not just simply waving the gun around to mow down enemies as they say, most parts of the game require precision aiming and there are many areas which mix up the game play such as helicopter chases, sniping stages and enemies needing a few guided rockets up the a**! In all honesty, the arcade ports make up for all the mistakes with that game because of the variety and value of the arcade ports.Īrcade games have always had that sense of cheese to them, so I do not understand why reviewers are giving it such a hard time. The FPS game could be better as the movement feels clunky and awkward. There are absolutely no slips in the controls unless you put the controller down and run to do something, in which you will need to re-calibrate because it will read its position wrong and calibration will be slightly off. I had a blast gunning through the arcade modes of the ports with my Move in the Sony gun attachment. I got some nostalgia chills from the sound effects which even date back to Time Crisis 1 such as the bullet impact sound, all in 5.1 surround sound! The arcade games are faithful widescreen high definition ports that live up to the Time Crisis name.
