Welcome to bullet hell, kid

Thursday 9 November 2006 @ 3:32 pm | By Ivan 'Nahu' Lozano Comment now!

Japanese Shooters are known for being ridiculously complex. Hell, before them shooters where easy arcade games with 5 bullets on screen at most. Today I was shown this video of DoDonPachi Daioujou, one of the worse offenders of bullet curtains, its so ridiculously difficult legend has it no one in Japan ever beat it on the arcade. To reach the final boss you had to play a second run of the game. This video shows a run of all of the game’s bosses. The final boss is the very definition of bullet hell. Oh, let me correct, final bosses, thats right you fight two bosses on the last stage. Simultaneously.
