Cool, I might give that one a go some time :D

By the way, I'm coming for that Kyukyoku Tiger score, Bloodreign.  Can't get past that third big plane in the second stage for some reason (I was passing it alright half an hour ago in Twin Cobra).

Operation Beat KT Two Stages completed!

571,160 Area 68 (already updated the thread)

I was very close to defeating the first of two tanks at the third boss, which makes the fight much easier.  Actually, I almost defeated that tank when I got back to the boss (only had the second level peashooter, though).

If I can only make it past that boss I could make my score significantly better.

Edit: I also deleted my Zero Wing entry.  If somebody can get past the first boss, we'll put it back up.  For myself, I don't see myself ever getting terribly good at the game.

There was no cheating or savestates, if that's what you're wondering. D:

No, I was just wondering if you were playing the X68000 version or Original on CV Chronicles, that's all.

It's the X68000 original. Majorly underrated CV.  :(

Cool.

Update:

Turns out I had the extends on Kyukyoku Tiger set correctly, so no update needed there.

Still need to fix my TC score though!

Ed knocked off my Kyukyoku Tiger score, and I improved on my Super Darius score, and finally got to the end of Zone E, only to be destroyed by the boss Little Stripes (a very painful boss to try and beat).

That re2 time doesn't seem reasonable. Unless you skipped the door opening sequence and had a rocket launcher to save on boss time.
-----------------------------------------------
Nowadays you are either a graphics whore or a fanboy. BR is Shank not CV. It is ridiculous to think that it is better than CV. If it was CV then it would be what RE4 is to Resi, a series killer. Dumb it down and make it look pretty. Enough idiots will buy it.

1,601,950 Zone D

More Super Darius madness, but this time instead of taking the bottom route to zone E, took the top route to Zone C, needless to say the stage was easy, but the boss Big Rajarn isn't at all, it wiped the floor with me.

Haha, I keep reducing the Area number (102 to 99 on TC, and KT is only 95), but the score keeps increasing!

My KT score is higher than my TC score now.  Crazy!

how the hell do you even get through one loop of altered beast on one credit!?

lots of tries man, and figuring out where all the blue wolves are gonna spawn from and what the best boss strategies are. Altered beast is def. one of the hardest games ever made especially the main boss one mistake and your toast and he takes over 100 hits to kill in addition. Took me 5 years just to get to level 5 and another 2 to finish it. It's def. battletoads hard.
