Vib-Ribbon - All levels playthrough.

So I used to play this game all the time on the Playstation Demo disk, it was such a unique game for the console. Although simple in design the controlls were really difficult for me back then (and admitedly now...). The game itself is rather short, you can play through Broze, Silver and Gold modes with two songs in each. The real magic of this game though is in the own CD mode which will allow you to put your own disks into the console and play along to the music, so the levels are only limited by your music collection!
In this video I play through all three game modes and then play a special extra song at the end. Hope you enjoy it!
P.S - sorry for the terrible edit job on that picture on the right, didn't realise it was so bad (but not bad enough to change it).

@@TubeheadSkinnymike It prompts you to put in the music cd. The game is still running and just reads the music files on the disk you put in you can choose the tracks you want to play. Even though it is in Japanese it isn't hard to figure it out at all. So remember if you burn a music cd make sure you convert it to a wave file to play on stereos and cd walkmans.
