This is the Boss Rush video made by Shinya split into 3 parts (due to 10min limit). This video features loop 10 stages 1-3 bosses.

Awesome skills. The soundtracks to this game in particular are brilliant- and that's just one aspect to like about this excellent old-skool (yet modern) classic. Too many games are too easy in the modern day (at least that's what I find) but this bucks the trend favourably...

(To soulreaper7x) Some short conversations during stage 2 & stage 7 & stage 8 which cannot be skipped, that is what they called the storyline. One of the reason is that it is important so the player will understand what the unidentified ship in stage 2 is about, and what the other Vic-Viper is about. The other reason is that the conversation also fits the background musics specifically designed for the game.

to ( piggypoo ) if you're wondering how shinya is evading those green rings lasers vs bigcore riv1.2 there is a programmed limit for the received shots called hit-box ^_^ it's located in the very center of vic viper ^_^ shinya was very smart on measuring the distance between the laser and the hit-box while trying the hardest possible to keep the laser in the center of the ship for not to get hit by the green rings lasers vs bigcore riv 1.2 ^_^ same to other bosses in the very close calls ^_^

yes as far as i saw that it is the best legendary game since 1985 when gradius history started and many people had admitted that it was the best classic series to this day after 24 years of intense shooting action ^_^
@guambombboy17 жыл бұрын
Because the width of the hitbox of the rings are wider than that of the Vic Viper. So the rings will get hit by the lasers before they even touch the Vic Viper.

@jmuir29 No that would be the object of really high loops. But the point is to get through the end of the game just like any SHMUP. this video is all bosses on loop 10 where the difficult maxes out.

ok and about the music and the bosses ? in weapon design Gradius V got 4 option types ^_^ there is E-laser in Gradius V which is also a chargable shot ^_^ Gradius V was also made by a genius directors from ikaruga by treasure ^_^ most people loves ikaruga just check out some videos of the final bosses .. i CHALLENGE your game R-type to have the same tough bosses like ikaruga and Gradius V with they're awesome musics and moves ^_^ Gradius was first started as scramble in 1981 before R-type XD

(even port gradius V please konami!) but best ever elements in schmup history appeared in r-type :)

horses for courses. gradius v is fantastic i admit. first isn't always best. r-9 pwns vic viper :) rtype final has many variants of weapons.. but i'm fan of simpler well-designed objects. what i like in r-type - the different weapons switch tactics. shield attatch/detach front/back chargeable shot, and switch 3 types of laser. -> then the levels are designed around this variety. more possibility in the system gradius more just blasting .. no harm i guess ikaruga's system didn't appeal to me.
