It’s the year 197X…
A mysterious force calling itself the Cosmic Demon Empire suddenly launched an assault on Earth, commanding an army of colossal beast-shaped war machines known as the Space Beasts. Meanwhile, at a certain top-secret Space Robot Laboratory somewhere in the Far East, preparations had been made “just in case something like this ever happened”. Thus, the newly developed transforming and combining combat robot GEPPY-X was deployed into action.
Never before released outside of Japan, 70’s-Style Robot Anime GEPPY-X will now be available to play worldwide!
A love letter to Japanese mecha anime from the 70’s, this fast-paced 2D side-scrolling shooter has undergone a transformation of its own. Battle the Cosmic Demon Empire with quality of life improvements such as faster load times, rewind, save states, and more!
Experience GEPPY-X with subtitles in eight new languages and full restoration of the 8,000 hand-drawn frames from the original Betacam master tapes. The original PlayStation release squeezed the animation into four discs at 320x240 resolution and only 15fps. For this new release, each “episode” has had its opening theme, previews, commercials, and end credits re-digitized and restored to its original 24fps.

This is probably most important game release of the year. Originally released in 1999 for the PS1, Geppy-X has long been a staple of "best games you've never played" lists and has been going for triple digit prices online for what seems like forever. Now it's readily available on like every platform and properly translated into 7 different languages, with its cutscenes restored from the master tapes by the same guy at Imagica who handled, among other things, the recentish 4K transfers of Angel's Egg and Branded to Kill. The actual gameplay is whatever, it's a horizontal shmup that's not nearly as punishing as the kind of stuff we're used to in a world where every other game's some sort of bullet hell roguelike (also it's not a long game, you can blaze through it in a few hours), but the presentation is nuts. The game's conceit is that every level is structured like an episode of an anime, complete with opening and ending credit sequences, a next episode preview, commercials, insert songs - the whole thing. No expense was spared (the PS1 version shipped on 4 discs and most of the disc space was taken up with cutscenes lol) and there's big names (in the anime arena, anyway) attached to it. It feels premium in a way that more than holds up today, especially now that all of that fancy animation has been remastered to Blu-ray quality. There's also a ton of bonus content, including a boss rush mode structured like a theatrical release of the theoretical Geppy-X TV series and a mode that imagines what the game would be like if it was Americanized a la Star Blazers. There's a demo if you want to try before you buy. Can't recommend it enough though, even if you don't click with the gameplay it's a unique experience you won't forget and it's not often that we get a remaster this good of an actual hidden gem outside of like Night Dive's work (have you played Killing Time yet? Please also play Killing Time).

発売当時に購入してPSが壊れるまで(大体はDisk交換のせい)遊びつくした上に、唯一ゲームのサントラCDまで購入した思い入れのあるゲーム まぁ、今でもコレクションケースに読み込めなくなった現物がケースごと残ってるんですが(笑) 内容はツッコミ所しかなく、愛が行き過ぎてバカゲーになってしまった 良いところ ムービーの画質が超綺麗にリメイク! しかし、肝心のゲームはフルHD以上の画質で見るとドット一つ一つがハッキリ認識できてしまうため、 粗さも目立ってしまっている(モザイクかと思った) PCだと読み込みが早くてnowloadingの賢者タイムがいらない ディスク交換しなくて良い!(これだけで+星5つ) ゲーム画面でDisk2に交換してくださいと表示されてPCのディスク排出ボタン押した人、私以外に他にも居るよね? 既に会社は無くなってしまっているけれど、あなた方が届けたかった人のもとにちゃんと届いています! ありがとう!
Geppy-X is a love letter to 70s mecha anime, specifically Getter Robo and to a lesser degree, Mazinger Z. Geppy-X is very clearly a Getter Expy with the combining mecha gimmick. Its attacks and upgrade form are references to Getter Robo and Getter Robo G. It's a nice nostalgic trip playing through the game for people familiar with the genre. The music is also scored by legends in the anime and mecha music scene. Unsurprisingly though, 40 bucks is a pretty huge asking price. I will recommend it to fans of mecha - specifically super robots. However if you're feeling the slightest bit apprehensive, I would suggest waiting for a sale. I personally bit the bullet however because I really liked the game from the demo and knew that despite the length, I'd still appreciate the game despite its price. I'd highly recommend for anyone at $20 and tentatively for people who are fans of super robots/japanese mecha at $30.
PS1时代翻版盖塔的经典横板卷轴游戏复刻版 价格挺贵 不过便利功能还是比较齐全的 图鉴功能不错 游戏可以随时切换三种形态(盖塔。。)分别有不同的战斗模式和武器 标准的吃道具可以提升武器性能以及触发辅助机器人支援系统 中期机器人还会获得升级改造 每个场景都会有OPED 过场动画 每个BOSS都有专属处决动画 所以个人觉得这老游戏反而比之前的UFO魔神游戏好玩。。 This remaster is a remake of the classic side‑scrolling Getter game from the PS1 era. It’s fairly pricey, yet it comes with a full suite of convenient features, and its gallery function works really well. You can switch between three Getter forms anytime in‑game, each with distinct combat styles and weapons. As is typical, picking‑up power‑ups boosts your weapon performance and activates support drones, while your mech also gets upgrades and modifications midway through the campaign. Every stage features opening‑and‑ending‑style cutscenes, and each boss has its unique finishing animation. For that reason, in my opinion this old‑school title is actually more fun than the earlier UFO Robot Grendizer game.
This game is more expensive than most of the shmups you can buy but honestly, it's worth it because this game is a twofold labor of love. When it originally came out for the PS1, it arrived on four CDs because of the amount of voiced animation clips in it. The devs went full in on making this game feel like a parody of a 70s anime ( with some 80s and 90s flare too! ) with each stage being its own episode with an OP/ED, Eyecatches, and a silly commercial. Plus voice acting from the greats in mecha anime! Many, many, many years later this remake happened through great effort of passionate people to collect the original recordings and re-digitize them. Now this is absolutely insane with Japan's not very good rep with preserving old media with anime and games but a miracle happened with Geppy-X and everything was kept in good condition and found. This game is literally a piece of gaming history properly restored with love and passion rather than a slapped together cashgrab. This is especially important with the rise of AI and vibecoding to spit out games. You can put it on par with M2's ports. Now for the gameplay! You have the biggest hitbox ever. Bigger than a fat dragon from Dragon Spirit! But that's okay because you don't die in one hit, you have a generous amount of armor with rather frequent refill drops. So you will get hit, but it's not that bad. This does make the game feel more approachable to casual players. But there's still a bit of challenge in the game as there's no 1up pickups that I know of or score 1ups. So you have 3 lives and 3 continues to beat the game. Still very generous and casual friendly! You will be able to see the ending within a few playthroughs. You have 3 mech modes each with 2 different shots and 2 different charged shots. Each one feels pretty good, even the yellow one that's slow and short ranged. Play whichever one you like! Depending on which mech you use to kill a boss, you might get a special cutscene! it's fun trying to figure out for completing the animation collection. My only cons for this game is that the shooting controls feel a bit delayed because the game wants to complete doing and action before doing the next. You won't have an instant transformation or bombing if you were holding down the shoot button. It takes a bit getting used to and makes you play a bit slower. But once you get a feel of it, it's not that bad. Stages can be really short and bosses die fairly quickly, especially if you're fully powered. If you skip all the animations and cutscenes, the game is rather short. But this game isn't meant to be a pure action shmup, it's more about the presentation. So if you're a fan of 70s mecha anime, you're in for a fun ride. You'll have to beat the game three times to get all the endings so you get a good amount of replayability. Oddly enough, when loading a finished save file after beating the game, you get infinite continues. Also after you beat the game, you unlock the Extra modes where you play as the helper mechs! If you're the type who likes to fill out collections, Geppy-X has an enemy log and movie log to fill out. It's an absolute delight to read the silly descriptions of everything and weird names all the enemies have. There's an enemy called Night-Fog Soap-Bubbles Friday and another one called Old Man Missile Unit-1 to give an idea of the jokes in this game. Overall, Geppy-X is a really fun shmup! It's more about enjoying the ride than going for score or tight mechanics. You'll get a big smile out of this game, perhaps even shed a tear or two. It's an amazing passion project made by fans of old school giant mecha anime and shmups and I'm glad now the whole world and experience what was once a Japan exclusive gem of the PS1 days.
너는 완벽한 궁극의 겟[spoiler]타[/spoiler]피-X 이 게임은 호화로운 제작진과 성우진 등 많은 자본을 들여서 만든 전설의 바카게로 만취상태로 의기투합한 아저씨들이 만든 듯한 시종 메카물의 패러디와 얼빠진 내용으로 점철되어 있어 플레이하는 내내 웃음이 나오는 작품입니다 그 때 당시 발매했던 이 게임이 디스크 4장으로 발매했다는 점과(FF7이 3장) 보스마다 준비된 전용 피니시, 스토리 분기마다 따로 존재하는 애니메이션 등 제작진의 열정도, 이 게임을 발매하고 회사가 파산했다는 것도 이해 가는 작품이므로 실실 웃으면서 플레이 해보시길 바랍니다.
这个游戏告诉我们一个道理:老a8还是a8 如果你喜欢那种莫名奇妙的执拗和热血这个游戏给你的就是这种感觉 老司机们能体会的白话文就是:这种就是属于那种风韵犹存,能懂化妆把自己成熟魅力展示出来的熟女,我很是喜欢
70年アニメへのオマージュが楽しいし この作品を現在に復活させたその情熱が素晴らしい。 ゲームとしては難しいというか雑。 中身も突っ込みどころが多いが 情熱とオマージュに笑い楽しめるかたにお勧めです。
어렸을때 플스1로 했던 기억도 있는데, 그땐 어려서 몰랐지만 커서 생각해보니 CD가 복돌이였던게 생각남. 복돌이여서 그런가 화산 이후론 진행이 안됐었는데, 빚도 갚을 겸, 뒷 내용이 궁금하기도 해서 구매함. 그땐 분명 안죽고 화산까지 갔었는데, 지금 하니까 어렵네...
I used to not believe in the beauty of 2D mecha games, but this game made me a believer. I used to not believe this game was worth it, but my god, this might be my favorite remaster in recent memory. The sidescrolling is WAY more dynamic than i expected and i'm gonna spend dozens of hours mastering these controls. Whether you love retro games, mecha, or even art in general, this game is for you. Geppy X! We'll protect the Japanese economy!
