Does anybody know any cheat or game shark codes for Border Down? My thumb hurts.

I just got the game on Friday, and I don't see any rapid-fire option that enables you to shoot one solid line of fire accross the screen, like you see in replay videos of this game.

Where do you turn on this option?

I really don't understand.

If you hold down the shoot button you fire your forward shot continuously.

If you tap the shot button you get homing lasers (It is a little like a Cave game in that sense.)

Then of course you have another button for the big laser and another button for speed.

That's it. You don't keep tapping the button for rapid fire.

The only thought that comes to mind is how if you are to the far left, you will see momentary interruptions in your shot. Just like G-Darius, you can have a somewhat more continuous/faster stream by moving farther right.

Other than that, I don't really get what both of you are asking.

He's saying his thumbs hurt cause he's pressing the buttons too hard. It's probably his left thumb, too. Many people hit directionals way too hard.
