VOOT 360 – first video is beyond awesome

Sega’s put out the first video of the XBLA version of Virtual On: Oratorio Tangram. It looks amazing. Even the words “cyber troopers” are so completely full of win. Watching this gave us goosebumps.
After the break. It’s out this spring for 1,200 MS Points.

The Saturn called. It wants its graphics back.

Online battle! Different colours for your robots! It’s the dream. Yet, it’s real.

It’s like we’re partying like it’s 2010, but we’re in 2009.

It *so* is. I look forward to being completely rubbish at this for a bit then getting bored of it.

almost worth a purchase just for that mental bass-line and that hilarious drum fill at 47 seconds

I know this is a bold statement, but if the online is smooth, this could be the most exciting thing to happen on the 360, ever.

Gotta admit, make me wish for a ZoE3…
And the Sega version had cooler camera angle, I swear you used to tilt to the side, that was awesome, why did they get rid of that?

Wow. Just wow. I’m amazed at how well the GFX hold up to this day. If this gets the full HD treatment, this is day one for me.
