Deathsmiles: Deluxe Edition Xbox 360

Deathsmiles is a side-scrolling shoot-em-up that went into arcade operation on October 19th 2007, and was later released on the Japanese Xbox 360 in March 2009.

Unlike other shooting games, Deathsmiles is designed with a left/right shooting mechanic, surrounding you with enemy units and gunfire from both sides of the screen.

The player will need to employ strategy and think about enemy positioning as your shots may be blocked by obstacles. Deathsmiles features a selectable difficulty level that allows you to choose how to proceed through the game, ensuring that newcomers are as welcome as veterans. Different stories and conversations will appear during both single player and two-player cooperative play and depends on the character(s) chosen.

Different Game Modes:

• Arcade Mode - featuring the same gameplay and accuracy as the original arcade release
• Xbox 360 Mode - a high resolution version of the arcade game 
• Version 1.1 - an original mode for the Xbox 360 
• Revamped game system 
• Revamped scoring system 
• New ways of obtaining items 
• Alterations to the difficulty selection system (1 to 4) 
• Changes to the Power Up feature 
• Direct your pet with a modified control system

Deathsmiles: Deluxe Edition Includes:

• An expanded version of the game with new features included on the disc
• New playable character Sakura 
• New stage Ice Palace 
• More challenging scoring system 
• New difficulty setting, level 999 
• Play with a friend via Xbox LIVE, where the player can also measure up their success by submitting their scores to the online ranking service

Two alternate endings for each character played, leading to 10 possibilities (including Sakura from the Deathsmiles: Deluxe Edition).

The story of Deathsmiles unwinds over the course of four chapters. There are nine stages total in the game which players can choose to traverse: Port Town, Graveyard, Forest of the Lost, Bog Wastes, Lakeside, Volcano, Hades Castle, Gorge and the Ice Palace. The latter two levels are entirely optional (the Ice Palace only appears as an extra level in the Deathsmiles: Deluxe Edition). Choosing the highest setting four times in a row will trigger Death Mode, which ups the difficulty even further but allows more opportunities for earning points.
