Silpheed: The Lost Planet PS2 Playthrough - Another PS2 Hidden Gem

[@dsagent]

The constant radio chatter reminds me of Ace Combat, the enemies have that The Thing body horror vibe, "you want to live forever" line from starship troopers, even has a subspace stage like freespace.

[@CommanderBohn]

If you think about it, this game is kind of a eldritch horror story. One of few that has a happy end.

[@boylekay789]

The scary childhood moment is the cutscene after the first mission. That guy's scream is chilling

[@SigmaExcel]

This game was part of my childhood! Many people dont like shoot em ups but this one is great!

[@AzrialAlaria]

I like them...A LOT! ^.=.^

[@ArmyGuyDan]

I've been playing shoot em ups since the 80s

[@samvimesfan9779]

The first Silpheed was a part of mine😊

[@greggonzalez8090]

Bro! So many games ou there shootemups it means tones of people love them since the end of the 70's

[@dcxblade7632]

I'd like to replay this entire game on ps4 if I could.. I remember only ace-ing the 2 levels since I was 10 years old, but it's been a Childhood favorite since I played it on PS2

[@angrymobsters1599]

The ending credits are amazing. Especially the soundtrack that fits the mood

[@warehousedave7937]

For the price this game goes for, this is A MUST for any shooter fans to add to their collection. Awesome shmup by Treasure + Game Arts and published by Working Designs for $30? What more could you ask for?

[@majorlove8828]

I think no one’s ever beat every level it’s gets harder and harder and not person ever did it!! Congratulations!

[@jr.a8301]

underrated masterpiece. kinda reminds me of darius twin on SNES

[@sonoftroy8572]

Yes!!! I played this game day and night... thanks for the old memories

[@waynecuff3140]

Had this gem, when I bought my Japanese launch PS2. I will be honest love it more now than I did at launch. Always preferred the Mega CD version. But now I love em both equally. Gutted we never had another Silpheed not like this anyway.

[@xdejablu3x]

I dont regret paying $7 for this game brand new when I got it back in like '05. One of my favorite old school styles, modern day, space shooters that actually had a decent story line. It'd be awesome if they remade this game via flight sim like Ace Combat or even keep the traditional way with a more modern touch. I miss these small third party developers who make these games because everyone is so worried about making the best AAA possible and bandwagon to those titles, while ditching everything else.

[@DominicSnyder]

Yeah, that's a steal, dude. Game goes for, like, 30+, these days, (used of course), which is somewhat high for a PS2 game.

[@PLTOTA]

It kind of did get remade as an arcadey flight sim in the spiritual sequel Project Sylpheed (spelled that way). 2009, Xbox 360, SETA-developed and Square Enix published. I don't member it being dazzling, alas.

[@khlothostonney5760]

since you brought it so cheap, would you sell it to me for a decent price? i can trade you!

[@3anaurv2]

Slow game and oldschool gameplay but awesome graphisms and music. And the atmosphere is great.

[@wbkxx]

Recently tried this after missing it back in the day, and it is majorly underrated. Lots better than quite a few shmups that have been rated higher over the years. Maybe too many people associate a screen full of bullet spam for making a better game.

[@MrCompassionate01]

Welcome back to your childhood!

[@2ScoopsPlz]

Randomly remembered this game from when I was like 7 so went looking for the name, and yep. Still looks awesome honestly. Wish there was a way to play it on pc.

[@schex86]

You can play on your phone aether sx2

[@Bryan0411]

For PC, you can play it on PCSX2 1.6.0. Just be sure that ur PC has better specs or decent specs that can handle emulation for PS2

[@mr.x8259]

Another game I couldn’t beat.

[@Joryo1]

Great game, I still have my copy with the holographic cover. I was only able to beat it once with one health bar left. The last level is brutal and takes a lot of commitment to beat. No save points in the game so you had to grind the whole game on every sitting to then continuously attempt the last stage.

[@bryansabater9562]

One of hidden gems shmup game for Playstation 2.

[@Peter_Morris]

Holy crap I never knew this existed! Wish I’d gotten this around launch time instead of Gun Gryphon Blaze. It’s not hard to see the influence this had on the later Gradius V. Man Treasure was awesome.

i love how 1/2 a millenia after mastering colonization of new worlds in space we still communicate by walkie talkie

This is like Apporoid Homeworld from Starfox Assault, except a billion times cooler and with a kick ass soundtrack.

[@PassportBrosBusinessClass]

If I saw this on PS store for PS3 I'd buy it.

[@jkajmo]

God I love shoot em ups! Especially vertical shooters, even tho I too love horizontal as well. Recently I finally beat "The Raiden Project" on my original PS1 :) that is one tough game.

No lo puedo creer acabo de descubrir este juegazo Slipheed the lost planet de PS2. Es uno de los Shoot'em up al igual que Gradius V tiene unos graficazos, muy buena accion, sonido y entretenimiento al maximo. Saludos!!

[@daviddyer3543]

I'd like to see the Silpheed fighter from that game series as a die-cast vehicle or a model kit. Or, maybe a Transformer can that turn him/herself into that space fighter.

[@fonesrphunny7242]

There is a model kit, but it can be hard to find outside of Japan and is quiet pricey for the size.

[@darkwarrior141875]

Reminds me of einhander from the ps1

[@fuzzbear677]

This game is nice good shooter and the sound track is awesome🕹🎮😀👍🏽

[@maxim13able]

That man is playing galga! He tough we didn't notice... But we did

[@ikagura]

Treasure brought back both Gradius and Silpheed, nice.

You can notice the Silvergun DNA on this one.

can you save progress in this game?

No, that would be great

[@Jereciah137]

I am going to download this game on my pc for psx2

[@ssctiyo4735]

I only got this disk once and never again Now with access to Emulators, im gonna beat this game i could not when i was young And honestly the 7 Type Beam is actually decent with the piercing, pretty underrated weapon ngl, its kinda not easy to aim, but it definitely come in handy with the piercing, best paired with Napalm

[@jessykiloso]

Purée il me faut cette version!!!

[@SolCresta3405]

Why is the final boss the same one from the original game?

[@nintendomanx]

You somehow lost a movie clip in there. After the planet Solont gates to earth and decimates the fleet with its counter attack, there is a second movie clip before the final level.

[@BraindeadEntertainment]

That's weird, didn't see that one.

[@CNCRoadKill]

It's shown just after you select your weapons. Napalm FTW.

[@SigmaExcel]

Oh yeah I just noticed that too. There should be a clip where everyone at the space station salute to the silpheed pilot

[@RX203]

I agree, that clip shows the final preparations before the final assault to infected Solont

It’s like the space version of spy hunter

[@jackylee5850]

The one time when Working Design couldn't actually work any of their shenanigans into the game and just publish it as is. Logically, one would think they can't really do much since it's not a traditional RPG, then again Silhouette Mirage proved otherwise. Anyways, it seems they did make one change, each of your shield stock equals 5 hits, and you have one additional stock, equaling 10 hits. However, the Japanese original had 4 extra stock, giving them 25 hits. It's just like Working Design to make things harder They must have been the ones who designed that reflective glitter box art, it's definitely their style and certainly something no other PS2 box art had at the time The comm chatter is unfortunately overwhelmed by the loud background music, so suggest turning it off if you want to hear the banter

[@caimbus]

I loved this game..I would have a PS2 just for this game

[@midinerd]

amazing commitment. a ps2 is probably 30$

[@paulacuff6063]

This is what's wrong with today's gaming industry, games like this don't get made anymore. To busy catering for the cry baby COD generation to worry about what other older gamers like. Imagine games like Silpheed, Starblade, on current or next gen consoles.

[@HexenStar]

I have been a huge fan of the Mega-CD Silpheed for over 20 years, and i still am. A perfect space shooter that it is, - could only be rivaled by the mighty Soulstar...but even that rivalry never resulted in victory of the latter (even despite its superb music). And when i discovered first that there was a sequel to Silpheed - back in the day, i was ecstatic. But, somehow never had a chance to try or even see it, never had a PS2. Now i see that i was missing absolutely nothing! This is nowhere near the first game's perfection! Mega-CD title was created with love, such incredible attention to detail, the stages were designed literally to blow your mind, to make you feel like you are in an epic space battle-odyssey: Han Solo himself in a Millennium Falcon for the very least! The way huge asteroids and space stations pass by you, laser cannons flash and rend nearby spacecrafts into thousands of pieces...Unforgettable hyperspeed run across battle-station of stage 4 or being inside a twisting computer tech complex at stage 7, all out assault at stage 8, asteroid dash at stage 2...whew, there are so many truly great moments in the game that seamlessly merge and flow from one to another to form a game that virtually never gets old! Lets not forget the absolutely terrific sound design and music... Here, however, we have none of that...NONE! We have a "made of plastic / it's fantastic" Barbie-doll kinda shmup, with literally nothing to show for! Lackluster "tubing" while pressing the fire button repeatedly, that's it. More like a clone of Iridium-3D, than a Silpheed sequel. Well, on one hand - it is a little sad, to see such disappointment, but on the other - i am glad that i was missing nothing! Silpheed for Mega-Cd, Soulstar - and Novastorm PC. This trio ruled supreme back then, and it still rules now - undisputed.

[@khhnator]

dude... really just shut up

[@Renegaiden_]

Yeah, Shut up! Your Nostalgia is doing the talking, and disrespecting the efforts and generational progression of talented developers and gaming. Just cause they couldn't match your retro fantasy of a Star Wars dogfight, you go on a sequel tyrade. Have a seat! P.S. Mega-CD Sylpheed music was Trash. It was let down by horrible sound sampling. Ex: Drum snares were cheap and rhythm was mostly off-key. You're delusional!

[@jermarcusm.robinsonwaller1063]

You know you could've "ALSO" Use some of the "OTHER" Weapons that you'd unlocked in the majority of the playthrough!!!!! Not to mention the fact that you have "ALMOST" gotten "YOUR" BUTT & "YOUR" SHIP BLOWN TO SMITHEREENS IN A "FEW" OF THE GAME'S LEVELS INCLUDING THE GAME'S "FINAL" LEVEL!!!!! I mean you unlocked "ALL" of the game's weapons for the Left & Right gun mounts so why do you stick with the Optic Laser & Napalm Bomb Combo FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE FREAKING PLAYTHROUGH?!?!?!?!?! So what i am saying is: Why not get creative with the game's various weapon combinations?????

[@dreadsoft99]

This game is fucking ridiculously hard when you first pick it up. Some weapon combos make the game slightly easier… and I’d argue some make it way fucken harder haha.

[@mistsclar6534]

the actual voice acting, though this game was cheap. Yet it's a great gem, and tbh the voice acting isn't that bad.

[@RRVCrinale]

To be fair, the Sega CD version of Silpheed, to which The Lost Planet is a sequel, had incredibly silly voice acting too.

[@SoundFantasy]

I think it replicates the voice acting from the sega CD game really well. That's a large appeal really.
