I have watched hundreds of Gradius V players over the years and I am a player myself, but I have never seen a playthrough like this. The playthrough takes everything you know about Gradius's mechanics and you flip them on their head. Strategic posiitioning with multiples whilst using the E laser is excellent, and the selective charge firing takes some knowledge as to when to fire the E laser.

THE greatest shmup ever created. There are a few that come close (Ikaruga, R-Type) but none surpass this masterpiece. I still have it on PS2 both used and MIB, just wish they'd do a remaster for current gen. It'd be great on the go on Switch.

Gradius V is surprisingly still graphically impressive even after all this time. The level design is very good too. You can tell there was passion put into making this game. It's sad to see Konami practically abandon this franchise.

It's sad to see Konami, a once great video game publisher, almost completely abandon video games in general and become a mockery of their former selves. Seriously, someone with deep pockets just needs to buy out Konami's classic franchises.
@MrSuperspeedsonic5 жыл бұрын
Overall I think that Konami stopped making shoot em up because the genre became in a pretty small niche market, the last based in Gradius if I am not wrong was "Otomedius Excelent" exclusively for the Xbox 360. I think Gradius will back in some point of the future, I also love Gradius is my favorite shoot em up. About Konami itself the things were pretty harsh for the company between 2015 - 2017, but them are improving now, maybe not great but I think I can call it "good". About the mockery I think is pretty easy ignore it, foolish people (The people swearing and being rude) don't deserve much time but I think out there is people that have proper criticism for the company and them know that the proper way to critize Konami is not buying the games from the company. At least it seems like most people still trust in the company, the 1 millions copies sold of Super Bomberman R are a proof of that and the rude comments usually don't get too much attention compared to the nice comments. I wish them the best, hopefully next years will be better for the company. Hope dies last, and if not out there are more than 100+ worthy Konami old games that are worth checking. (At least for me, sorry if I sounded like speaking for you)

Gradius is my favorite shoot em up of all times so I like a lot to meet other fans from the franchise. I have seen a lot of videos from other shoot em up from Konami where people beat them in the hardest loop and not losing lifes. This video is pretty impressive!! Gradius V has a lot of intense and hard sequences and it is a great spectacle watching gamers with nerves of steel playing the whole game and beating them with no deaths. Congratulations, I am sure that it wasn't quite easy beat this. Destroy the core!!
