Aw, you guys are so sweet. :) I do not intend to stop rambling about all these crusty old games either way, I love them too much to not praise them at every possible opportunity, especially with cases like Gun Hohki or Xexex, both of which I consider to be fantastic. I definitely need more space on my top 25 this year, trying to fit even the essential games on just 25 spots is going to be like lying on the proverbial Procrustean bed. :cry:

Daily reminder that Perikles is one of the best members in the history of this forum.

If you ever figure out that glitch I came across ages ago, please let the world know. It could even be an old MAME bug; unfortunately, I do not remember which version of MAME I was using, but it was likely some variation of 0.99.

XexeX bug is not a mame problem. All japanese score above 10,000,000 pts use this bug with lives sacrifice. But in 15 years I never seen a video that shows this strategy.

Great to see you post again! :smile: And yeah, the OST is peak Konami, absolute feelgood. I really hope this gets an Arcade Archives release at some point.

Ho fuck.

So it's kinda like Gun Frontier stage 2, but on steroids.

Thank you for finding this!
