Garudius (Gradius) '95 - Boss Run - Recovery Run - Part 1

[@Ericmor]

"The Hard war is cleared soldiers then devote are highest legend there are teach to young people of next generaion" "Also we low budget and very engrish"

[@Alienboi2005vidsandstuff]

7:21 IT WAS PERFECTLY IN SYNC!!!

[@larisavandalfsen8263]

Yep

[@aliultimate009]

Gradius VI or Gradius 6 is on the way ... while Gradius V is unbelievable in the difficulties against the bosses ... we will see what konami will shows us in the future .... Gradius 6 will be something like a LEGEND to all Gradius games ^_^

[@charaznableplays2110]

aliultimate009 really?! You got proof of that?!

[@ACESpark]

Just a choice by the creator of the game. The first music is taken from Gradius 3's second boss theme, the second is taken from Nemesis 3 on the MSX. I suppose he wanted the organic bosses to have music from the latter game, seeing how that game almost exclusively has organic bosses.

[@larisavandalfsen8263]

Makes sense

[@HunterIsRad]

GRAND CORE?! FLEENSTONES?!

[@quesder]

Damn, Konami should feel ashamed with all the non-creative bosses they have made! Learn more from this fan, Konami! I love the 3rd both very much, by the way.

[@Astral_Feline]

4:35 Whoa, those plants are FIRIN THEIR LAZORZ!!!! Sorry... I couldn't resist XD

[@lordmarshmal_0643]

Man finding this again brings me back to a simpler time in life We were staying at a bed n breakfast for a few days while lookin at some houses with the hopes of moving into Ohio (with my father being retired from the air force we figured to take the opportunity to move closer to other family members) from Tennessee, and being fresh outta elementary at the time (for time reference I just completed my bachelor's in computer science this December), I didn't have much to call my own - I had an Amazon Kindle, a DS, and not much else in general This series, and someone's playthrough of Xevious 3D/G, was enough to kept me entertained over those days when we weren't doin anything - it feels stupid to say that nowadays but like, I only knew about like

[@joshjimeno6130]

When I saw the thumbnail, I thought HOLY SHIT KING TUT! When the video ended, i thought HOOOLLLYY SHHIIITT KING TUUUT!!

[@ACESpark]

Parts. :p This game has alot of bosses. The crystal level isn't as bad as it first appears - the 8-way fragments don't actually hurt you, and are just for show. For the most part this guy showed restraint where the main series would normally go "yep, that's fine." The final level is how-ever a utter nightmare. I guess he wanted followed Gradius 3 very closely in that regard.

[@heroteen16]

i like this version of the gradius 3 boss song, it sounds...subtle.

[@Leylite]

Heh. The programmer who made this game certainly both was a fan of the series and knew what he was doing, both in terms of gameplay and checkpoint placement. It looks like he continued the grand tradition of making crystal levels really difficult - the tight flying combined with those floating crystals that explode into 8-way fragments look painful. Looking forward to the other part of this run!

[@RavenXtreme]

Wow on the 3rd boss the theme just reminded me of "Shoot the Core". I hope you can get that one going again ACE, that was awesome!

[@karlr42]

Been playing this recently, I'm not great at shmups but this game is really really well made, it's very fair and the level design is great.

[@LezardMan002]

the gradius games are nice and all but it leaves me a few questions in mind. first off all: where da hell do those cores come from?! and why?! if someone has the answer then please share it whit me thanks in advance

[@SuperKB]

5:14 That boss is straight out of Super R-type (Stage 3)

[@NARFNra]

The game itself. Both are a central boss that open and close, and fire from their arms that they wave around.

[@Athrizel]

one other question do you have any ideas why certain boss's have different music than others? like the pharoh one`

[@VF1Skullangel]

The boss themes are pretty damn cool for this game.

[@no1janembafan]

7:37 ZERO.... THIS ISN'T YOUR GAME... GET OUT!

[@charaznableplays2110]

Patrick Townsend boss: dude im just a fire zelos force mate Vic viper: :/

[@Fireafyanimations299]

you mean the final boss of kirby 3

[@Athrizel]

k also when ur fighting the fireball boss when he swings that arm of fire. doesnt that remind you of the smorg boss from paper mario ttyd?

[@ZatohRondohoon3227]

0:42 But Wait, Wasn't That Problem Solved In Gradius V, When You Can Finally Come Back, Claim Few Left-over Multiples, And Continue On, From Where You Died?

[@WilliamShinal]

That was available on Salamander and Salamander II.

[@ZatohRondohoon3227]

Yeah.

[@WilliamShinal]

I don't know about G5 though. I'll have to take a look at decent level gameplay with deaths to see if you can recover like that.

[@WilliamShinal]

I took a look at Wikpedia and it says that you can't recover like in Salamander. It puts you back on a checkpoint, losing all your items.

[@ZatohRondohoon3227]

Salamander And Salamander II, And Then Later Gradius Games Have Recovery Function!

[@Athrizel]

guys there was a side shooter game like this for the snes. i dont remember much accept the first boss is a giant bug with pincers like a stag beetle. if anyone can tell me the name i would be ever so greatfull

[@charaznableplays2110]

Athrizel the only game i can remember of having that type of boss is gradius 3 Was the first level of that game youre talking about a desert level?

[@serisdovakhin]

7:30 ITS DARK MIND FROM KIRBY AND THE AMAZING MIRROR!

[@Prisoner416]

Oh man, what's the best way to play this on a modern PC?

[@Prisoner416]

Where can I find the rom and emulator for this?

[@VF1Skullangel]

I wish there was a Soundtrack for this!

[@OldSchoolNoe]

Had no idea this existed

[@marirsa100]

It is ideal system of gradius which I expected.

[@Vystein]

Are you gonna show all of the bosses in the final stage? What a pain that section was, even though it was ingenious.

[@KrazyScruffy9001]

This is a lot like Gradius 3. Grand Core is fricking awesome, BTW.

[@MasterZebulin]

...Did you just say "Solar Assault"?

[@ACESpark]

That's Gradius 3 mate. :P Check the Video Response i've just added, I did a video about that game a while back.

[@ACESpark]

@pminer1113 Shoot em up's tend to get harder. They nearly always have useless starter bosses - that's part of the genre. This game has 22 bosses, and it seems a bit unfair to judge the game harshly just because you don't like two of them. Games tend to get harder as you go along after all. It's also a Fangame, and running on a system with some serious limitations. Considering everything, it's one of the most impressive Gradius fangames I've ever seen.

[@NARFNra]

Is it just me, or is the Drastic Tortoise's first form very similar to the second boss of nemesis 2?

[@Jadriam]

@pminer1113 Wait, so you simply stopped watching after two bosses? That's like reading the first chapter of a book or five minutes of a new TV series and then giving up on it because the story 'wasn't developing fast enough', isn't it?

[@serisdovakhin]

9:04 the heck did he eat!?

[@NARFNra]

Yes! This game is awesome! I hope you continue this run!

[@ACESpark]

It just got knocked from it's resting place, wouldn't you be pissed off? XP

[@EndymionMkII]

Crystal Core XD but th last one of the serials, remind me if one type of attack from the last boss of Contra 3/ Super Probotector And woah! Drastic Tortoise was the one you showed when you did your ''next projects'' video o_o at the speed you showed it, the guy was slow, but now configured it looks an awesome boss fight. Also very wicked bosses here are, konami should b proud of this fan made gradius :D PS: Bad to hear about the Asterix Footage gone wrong :(

[@TronPachioftheDynamo]

I can't even get this working...

[@uubrmanx]

Wow, The 2nd boss REFUSES to die!

[@p6mkq]

8:55 King's Tut face is priceless,he is like: This little bug burned my face XD

[@ZatohRondohoon3227]

And Damn... This Gradius Series Has Been More Older Than DOOM Series. How About... Fixing This Vic Viper With A BFG 9K Cannon, And Replace Missiles With Heatseeking Rockets, And... Add More Explosions And Blood In The Death of Bacterions With Visor So Beautiful, It Responds With Every Hit You Take (With Hit Points Now Added), And Replace Lives With Infinite Tries And Easy Power-ups? Yeah! I Mean How About Crossing Brutal DOOM Mechanics With A Gradius Game? We Can Create A BRUTAL GRADIUS!!! Fuck Yeah!!!

[@aidanbarry8233]

N O P E, just remake it without the blood n shit and remove the doom stuff and were clear!

[@gunbuckybucketman4578]

Whoa, this game Missile is actually strong, if not counting Spread bomb from Gradius II.

[@Athrizel]

can you give me a specific name for the nemisis 3 one? im sorry for all these questions

[@assasin616]

the crystal level is my favorite so far.

[@TronPachioftheDynamo]

I should reword that. I COULDN'T get it working. I tried about a year ago. I can't remember the emulator. Can you recommend one?

[@Th3WitchDoctor]

I wish i could find the music for the Cicada boss fight :/

[@ACESpark]

The piece of music is called "Fighters Blood", and is originally from Nemesis 3 on the MSX. It was re-used in the Wii Ware game Gradius Rebirth, so a search on KZbin should point you in the right direction.

[@Deejay_BuddyLee]

Here you go... this is a link to the entire soundtrack: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l3i1pqB-nNSmg5I

[@master2745]

Saw kougal burn and legit thought it was a fiery dark matter battle from Kirby. Guess someone was inspired but I couldn’t say anything who

[@MxArgent]

Hmm, Kougel Burn reminds me of a certain bloody...orb...thing from Salamander...

[@charaznableplays2110]

Mister Argenr you mean zelos force? *a scream is heard in the distance* :/

[@TronPachioftheDynamo]

Whoever made this really spammed armsmon the bosses. What was that music for drastic tortoise?

[@ACESpark]

What emulator are you trying to use?

[@Athrizel]

AWSOME! ty

[@kirbykirbykirby1212]

KOGEL BURN reminds me of zero from kirby

[@aliultimate009]

if we would like to match the difference in this game we can see that it's ideas may not be acceptable by Gradius Team if we've added it in some Gradius stages because the fan made game might be way different than the original but i must admit that the bosses attacks were outstanding ^_^ please don't misunderstand me but .... the pro players can master this game in a flash seriously after i kept an eagle eye on the bosses actions and processed it ^_^ Gradius IV on Hardest loop 1 is harder ^_^

[@Pentonics]

How many attempts did this take you?

[@p6mkq]

favourite part: Tutenhamon likes oranges,it seems ;-) King Tut was quite good XD Always called him this way XD

[@VF1Skullangel]

Its Giant ROBO! at 8:25!

[@mushroomhead3619]

Why is Tutankhamen a boss?

[@DreadnoughtDT]

It's a reference to a similar boss in the NES version of Life Force.

[@alienspacebat5218]

Mistic Cicada aka DANMAKU CICADA!

[@mikosama1467]

Where can I find this game.The link in the description are dead.

[@ACESpark]

Changed the link in the description. You can find an emulator for the game at Zophar.net

[@mikosama1467]

I found it,thanks.

[@NealCamerlengo]

Awesome.

[@miked4377]

so your playng this on a nec 98 series?

[@miked4377]

nice moves!

[@miked4377]

wow tutunkaumen .!!!! very nice

[@aliultimate009]

since the player had managed to beat the bosses with only machine gun then just let them self destruct in 3 minutes like they do on the most of Gradius games and leave the controller or the keyboard to me then you'll see what i can do to them in these 3 minutes XD

[@MxArgent]

I wonder how much money James would get if he dragged all those diamonds back to gradius and sold them?

[@Smashy-rw8kr]

Why the hell does the music sound like a dish?

[@gunma747j]

dats fm sound 4 ya m8

[@WarpPal]

Are these original Gradius Bosses??

[@OtakuDeCarnitas109]

I was going to ask, was this on the game gear?

[@thegreatagitator4675]

Isaac garcia NEC PC-98

[@OtakuDeCarnitas109]

The Great Agitator I said I was going to

[@thegreatagitator4675]

Isaac garcia Ok.

[@MAXXEXTERMINATION]

[@TronPachioftheDynamo]
