The shooter games thread returns! The Empire Of Ammo says, EVERYBODY GETS SHOT!

Picked up Ketsui on my 360 again yesterday. Trying to work on getting all the achievements (currently at 917/1000 on it), but the last few big ones I need require me to 1CC both arcade and x-mode with both ships. I’ve 1CC’d arcade with the Tiger Schwert, and 1CC’d X-Mode with the Panzer Jager, but I can’t seem to do it the other way around to get the achievements :confused:

But on the plus side, on my last run with the Panzer in arcade mode, I broke my old high score by about 700K.

Also, that 33G achievement for getting 33,333 3 chips is obnoxious, because I can never seem to get them consistently enough to build up the count significantly. All the other achivements for collecting specific chip values are much easier to get.

Yeah definitely, I kinda dread trying to chain those diagonal platforms on stage 4 though.

I know I’m still so very ‘late’ but could someone hook me up with a Crimson Clover thingy. The one I have doesn’t work.

I’ll look mine up and send you a copy as soon as I get my other computer back. If that isn’t going to be soon, I’ll hunt down the link I had to it. Don’t worry. You’ll be getting shot no later than Monday at the very latest.

^Looks cool, can’t wait to play it…

Is this the full game?

Is there actual joypad support, or am I just better off using joy2key?

EDIT: From the footage I’m watching, it seems that the ship has a very small hitbox like all bullet-hell games seem to include… well at least I know its possible to beat…(I gave up on Ikaruga after getting through Stage 3 with no continues/extra lives, too much time has to be invested in it to be good, too memory-based for me, not enough reaction involvement)

I know you had good intentions, but hook a nigga up with a different link…

I have to scan my computer now to make sure no rootkits got installed:sweat:

^Gross.

^I think I found a download link that’s safe…

If it is, I’ll pass it off to you…

If you want to know where I got it from, its in the description of a German Let’s Play channel in .iso format…
[media=youtube]bh5xkh6-snc[/media]

Don’t ask how I found it :rofl:

I have no reason to suspect it… but I’ll see(100% free und virenfrei)…

I think you can run .iso format things without a program to read it… if not, I’ll PM something to you…

EDIT: Whatever you do, do not get DaemonTools… it comes with ad/spyware…

I got dat UltraIso hookup…

Yikes… I can’t read Japanese worth a damn but I saw 2.8 ghz and dx9:(

Alright, it works…

You can use 7zip or any .rar extracting utility to uncompress the iso…

From there click on the one that says setup and then you’ll get a whole bunch of weird hieroglyphs because generally a computer does not have the ability to understand other languages, only the language pack you have installed to windows(English for most)…

As far as translated settings go, look at the end of this page for those…

Also @ Curry were you talking about my sig? It came from the Friday thread… with the black guy getting his shine on in the vid… that and he does nothing but hire underage girls to his record company:rofl:

EDIT: Damn this game is hard as fuck… you have to pay for continues(with game money) and if you use it in a subsequent playthrough, its gone, and you have to buy it/more than 1 again…

If you want to skip stages, beat them, or make enough money to skip to the next…

WHAT!?!?!?

I know I downloaded that first link to make sure there were no viruses on it! Fucking bullshit!! I am very sorry about this BullDancer. That link gets removed immediately. :sad:

^Trojan reveals itself when you try to run the .exe:rofl:, not from opening and downloading the .rar

Still a good game though, thanks for introducing me to it…

Also, how did you get this thing to keep a saved game… for some reason, my data is not present when I close it and reopen it…Ye Shrug

…Damn. I didn’t open it. Sorry dude. :sweat: I’m starting to think my brain has been shot with Dumbass bullets. This is what I get for trying to do what’s good and stop drinking myself sick. Fuck that. Tonight I’m gonna give a bottle of Jagermeister a big fat Jabba the Hut tounge kiss and suck that bitch dry. After that…

EVERYBODY GETS SHOT!

Make sure you’re actually exiting the game from the menu and not just closing the window.

Finally got to play Eschatos…

Awesome. Awesome Awesome Awesome. Hard as hell though and I’ve only tried normal. Definitely have to learn patterns or you get overwhelmed. About to try out Judgement Silversword and Cardinal Sins.

I will make sure I beat this before the year is up…

That Crimzon Clover(before moving on though, I’ll try to beat this game on one credit) game revived my love for bullet hells…

Bangai-O missle fury is the one I’ve really been waiting on though… hurry up with it treasure:(

Also, how do you eliminate input delay on MAME shooters? Is there a special version that achieves this?

Lol dude it’ll be here Wednesday.

Level 2 from Last Chance To Reason

So I really rather enjoy this concept album I guess you could say, Level 2, from the band Last Chance To Reason. I like the album on it’s own and this accompanying shmup seems like a really neat way to listen to an album and experience the story it’s trying to tell. Here’s a video of it:

I like seeing games that make use of their soundtrack beyond just adding atmosphere.
