so either i skip class to beat it again, or just leave it. i remember playing dragon blaze during my lunch break, with one credit i beat the final boss and there was 10 minutes left before the break was over, and loop 2 is starting now. Second, like you said, there is no point in looping. (and good luck convincing the owner to let you in at night) heck even if you play from midnight to the next midnight, you still wouldn't finish even half of it. Well first of all, its just not possible. What sense do looping arcade games have, anyways? If there are so many good players, why would arcade owners want to risk some dude playing this game 256 times in a row on one quarter? A second loop, okay, but the really high loops are mostly serving japanese top players to produce superplays. I agree with you on the loop thing, I don´t like that you can´t simply finish a Gradius game and it´s over. In the worse case, even if the gameplay turns out to be bad, i still want to see the story end properly. worse yet if they announce to cancel it after waiting for a long time (where if they did it with just hold at least i prepared for it)Ībout milking the franchise dry, is that what happened to R-Type? they rushed their developement, and ran out of ideas, decided to come up with Final and just call it a stop? everything must end, and gradius is no exception, while i don't want them to rush and develope a bad one, i certainly do like to see them make another. but you add this 'indefinite', it becomes who knows when. if they said it was on hold i would been ok, cause i know they'll still work on it. I guess what got me in this situation was how konami used the word 'indefinite'. You're right, i guess i was a bit too quick, these things takes time, and thinking back, five was done not too long ago. Would you rather have them milk the franchise dry? Doing games like this takes its time, and considering it´s a niche genre, we should be thankful for every new shmup that comes out, let alone one of such a high quality. If we get a Gradius as great as V every five years that´s fine by me.

I am glad they are doing gamers favours like Castlevania Dracula X Chronicles, including two of the best Castlevanias EVER as a mere bonus. I'd rather have an indefinite hold than a Gradius VI as bad as r-type final. Last edited by VicViper_Mk2 on Thu 4:04 pm, edited 1 time in total. So that means somewhere out there is still the source, and don't you need to take that out to end the whole thing once and for all (like they did in R-type final) there is got to be another, rather there Must be one. the final boss, who calls itself vendom, says its only a small part of the whole. I want to see another gradius because five really didn't explain much. (do i need to remind you of your health?)

who can leave their PS2 on all week or longer, playing nonstop? (even the biggest shooter fan with a bit of self-preservation instinct wouldn't try) the disk would be so hot it would melt, the system would overheat tremendously, and a hefty electrical bill to boot. The real question you should ask konami is: why did you make 256 loop in the first place' heck 100 seems a little too crazy. However, in the game's data, this sound can be found and reuses the sound of the cells dying in the Stage 2.V already owned everyone, because its impossible to reach even max difficulty. Perhaps the developers just recolored everything orange to save time, you be the judge.Ī rather plain and boring title screen can be found in _title.bmp.ĭespite all the announcer voice clips for Gradius III being in the game, the voice clip for the 2-Way Missile is missing and reuses the voice clip for Missile.

In-game, only the eye becomes orange when the boss is hurt. The very same graphic has an damaged version named stage2_boss_damage.bmp where the shell is colored orange along with the eye. It could have been used for a reference guide on how it should look, or may have acted more similar to the Crawler found in Nemesis on Game Boy. The Crawler X is animated with multiple segments in-game, however, an assembled version can be found in stage2_boss.bmp. She even has a life icon hidden in font.bmp. When overlaid on her sprite, it fits rather snugly as well. It appears she was cut late in development though since her sprites are incomplete and lack the rotation frames the Vic Viper does.įurther evidence can be found with a shield graphic resembling the Otomedius series' style of shield appearing in a range of colors.

Judging from her amount of sprites, she might have been considered to be a playable character. There is also a silhouette of her sprites found in vic_viper.bmp.

Aoba Anoa from the Otomedius series appears in the files for the Vic Viper, vic_viper_red.bmp.
