Hisa-Chan The Raiden Master!

greenspun.com : LUSENET : MAME Action Replay : One Thread

I am delighted to report that this recording plays back perfectly in its entirety.

Hisa-Chan's latest recording weighs in with a score of 7.7 Million and is simply breathtaking. I have never seen this game played like this before. He treats the enemy with utter contempt and disdain - especially the game end bosses where he sometimes toys with them for extra score. In particular the level 2 and level 6 bosses are polished off in brilliant manner I've never seen done before.

The wheels didn't fall off until the end of the 2nd time through the game on the final boss. He finally met his maker in 3-2. Let's just say that the game regained some lost respect the third time through!

He uses red + homing virtually through the entire game. He converts to blue for a brief instant to accelerate the demise of boss 2 before regaining red power at the start of stage 3. Boss 2 is were he first used a bomb. His second bomb was dropped in the middle of level 7 (metal spiders) and another well timed lobbed at the end on the level 7 boss. Don't ask me how but there is a safe spot when facing the final boss where you can't be shot from - look out for that one.

Another thing to watch for is a little known secret in level 3 - if you allow the big ship (3/4 the way through) to dock before destroying it you can get a free life. He didn't pull it off the first time through but managed to snag it the second time through.

One question - why does he use the blue 2nd player ship rather than the 1st player red ship - is there an advantage in it?

I think I can wave goodbye to my Starforce recordings that I believe are next on his hit list (lucky me :-).

Although it pains me to say it, might I suggest R-Type to follow as it is under represented on MARP. I have a high of 451000 reaching level 7. I have seen a recording on MAME NAVI that completes it both times through (16 stages).

I'd like to thank Hisa-Chan for bringing to MARP incredible flagship recordings like Raiden and Rainbow Islands. We are fortunate to be able to showcase gems like these.

Now I think I'll have a little lie-down while I wait for my Starforce records to be buried!
