Glitches in Thunder Force VI, anyone had those problems?

[Sturmvogel Prime]

During one of my many gaming sessions i encountered glitches such as "scrambled "x16" counter", corrupted graphics such pixelated or invisible fireballs during ORN Emperor's battle and the most strange of all: Over Weapon sound effect still playing during Stage 2. At first i thought it was my copy of the game but i found that i wasn't the only one with those problems, so what i think it happened was that the game designers forgot to fix those issues prior to the game's release.

According to TV Tropes: "Game-Breaking Bug: Sometimes when playing Thunder Force VI enemy bullets will either be pixelated or just plain vanish. For example, when fighting the ORN Emperor's final form, his fireball-like attacks will suddenly become invisible."

Anyone had this or any other issues whle playing this game?

I never had any issues while I played the game. Maybe it's just not 100% compatible with certain PS2 hardware revisions?

I added that entry to TV Tropes because in some of my playthroughs of the game, the fireballs simply vanish. Who else has this problem other than me and Sturmvogel?

I've experienced garbled textures while fighting the final boss.

And recently, the bullets that can be shot that the final boss fires at you, it was invisible.

During the final stage, one of the ground turret-like enemies latched onto my CRAWS and continued shooting at me.
