Looks like the long delayed and awaited Thunderforce VI is due out in October on PS2 despite having been cancelled on the Dreamcast back in 2001 It certainly looks like a Dreamcast game and nowhere near rhe quality as Gradius V graphically but if the gameplay is there it should be great.

The Producer is an ex-Treasure employee and it's being handled by remenants of the old Technosoft team so it has the pedigree to be something special. However i'm a little aprehensive since I found Thunderforce V on the Saturn to be playable but nothing special and the Playstation conversion very poor.

Anyway it's something for Sega and Shmup fans to get excited about. I'll be placing a pre-order.
