E.X. Troopers - over 350 screens in HD



With Capcom deciding not to localise E.X. Troopers for the west, and with it only selling 26K copies in Japan, compared to the 220K which Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 reached during the same week, I'm puttingonline over 350 hi-def screenshots which I've taken. The game deserves more recognition than it's had. For me, E.X. Troopers was my GOTY of 2012. The controls were tight, the action fast and intense, the progression system balanced and fun, with plenty of post-game content. The visual style is also gorgeous. In several ways the game reminds me of Burning Rangers for the Saturn. The online multiplayer never seemed to work, but even so, the game is fantastic. If you own a PS3 you should import it. 

These screens are for anyone who wants them. Use them to create a detailed translation Wiki or FAQ. Use them for reviews, previews or Capcom campaigns. I don't really care. I might use some of them for an article on Hardcore Gaming 101, and I might not. But for Japan only releases it can be difficult to find decent quality screenshots without watermarks. Consider these my gift to the internet. They include character profiles, food items, weapons, tutorial instructions, cut-scenes, gameplay, and a guide for the 10 question quiz, plus miscellaneous. I didn't get EVERYTHING, but I think got enough. Apologies for some of the screens being too dark - you'll need to use an art package to brighten these. I only realised a few hours in that my capture device makes everything too dark if more than one console is plugged into it. Lesson learned for the future! I hope these are of some use. Do what you will with them. The ZIP file is hosted courtesy of Alan Stringer, AKA Dandy Sephy online. Many thanks to him for helping out!
