That Bakraid replay that was mentioned is good, but it gives you no idea how to handle the medalling and the x64 chaining at the same time. I think that and Batrider are two of the most mysterious shmups out there as far as how the really high scores are possible.
The other thing about that Bakraid video is the player pretty much ignores chaining anything on Railroad except for the boss. I'd be really interested to see an 120+ million Bakraid run just to see the ludicrous amount of suiciding involved.
Feedback will set you free.

I don't think that's a fault of the player on stage two. There's not really much to chain on that stage. The goal is to get the medal value topped out and grab as many bomb chips as possible before the boss.

i cant for the life of me figure out how to score big on dimahoo, that would make for some really interesting playing.
I've got a Dimahoo replay (from Jigsawman awhile ago) of 80,298,730 1CC by TAC, collected 107 out of 108 items. I just watched it again. Pretty amazing, as he bites it twice on the last boss' final patterns (wasting all bombs in the process), down to his very last ship, and then somehow pulls it together, takes the pattern twice without using any of his remaining 3 bombs, and finishes it.
can you send me that vid?
my msn is : [email protected]

or if you have acces to an FTP i can dl it that way, anyway id be very grateful :)

I uploaded the video to http://www.super-play.co.uk/ last night. It may take them a day or two to list it in their Recent Submissions section.

You did? They were only added on the 25th of Feburary. Plasmo is exaggerating a bit with '2 new videos a day' but there's a fairly steady stream of additions. It's also the end of the month so I'm sure new stuff will pop up come March 1.

Thanks, I just found that on Play Asia tonight! :D I can't wait! :D

So, INH one's are all region-free; do they do all, or the majority, of shmup DVD's? Like what about the Batte Garegga one, for instance?

I'm liking this INH company! The Raiden Fighters Onslaught DVD was quite a package! You can't go wrong with both the DVD replays AND all OST's to boot! Making them region free is VERY smart, too! Makes us Western shmuppers sell our arms and legs to get the cash for these expensive plastic discs!

My sentiments exactly :D

My poor wallet :(

I wonder if INH are Iron Maiden fans, "Aces High"? Seems like it'd be fun to fire up DX, set music vol down to zero, and set a level replay to that song...

Yes, it is! One of my favorite game soundtracks, in fact! However, I've played DX quite a bit from 1995 on and for the sake of variety it'd be fun to see how Aces High matches gameplay ;)
