R-type
Yeah, I agree with SiKrAiKeN that an additional stage highscore table is pointless because in order to play for a good stage score you have to sacrifice all your lifes in that particular stage. Which isn't actually any fun or good scoring wise for the game.
To make my point, I made this:
In order to beat my stage 1 score you HAVE to sacrifice your lifes in the first stage. But that is pointless. Esspecially considering you'd like to do that for each stage. It would be different if stages could be selected individually or only your first life of the stage counted. That's offcourse only my opinion and you can simply keep the stage score table if you like.

Certainly there's no harm in having the individual stage score table, but I got to agree that it is pretty pointless. I just posted the pic so everyone could see how my highscore was distributed with the stages. I certainly won't bother maximizing every single stage's score by suiciding. That would be extremely boring.

I am REALLY impressed. The best score is awesome.
1939500, what a great score.
Did you try to clear the game without using your beam ? I did, and I made it !
Did you try to clear the game without using your force ? I did, and I lost my last R-9 in level 14...
This game allows you to experience so many challenges, that's why it's one of my favorites shmups of all time.
My favorite shmup is Super Aleste (I cleared it in all modes). But, if you know the french website www.shmup.com, you know it...and maybe, you know me, pal !

Arcade All Clear - 2.181.300 pts
http://benjamin.bouloch.free.fr/replays/rtypescore.jpg
I used all my 8 lives (7 miss) to leech on the boss of stage 7.
I've scored 1.121.700 pts on the st 1-7.
I know this because I've got a video superplay by Shipeg who score to 2.442.100 pts (the world record: 2.482.000 pts by SENGOKUNIN) and he scores 1.226.300 pts on st 1-7.

No, it's possible with default setting but you need to destroy EVERYTHING in the game and leech on st 1-7 with all lives.The Arcadia record seems to be 2,477,000 but I think that's only possible if you have 5 starting lives.

I'm impressed, really. Since you said 'arcade', I suppose you played the original PCB? Right?
The current world record is certainly owned by SENGOKUNIN with 2.482.000, but he used autofire (probably one of those built-in autofires they have in japanese cabinets)
I'm starting to feel I should dust up my PCB again. I should defend my position.

I know it's been over two years, but Shige's 2,442,100 point run can be found at the bottom of this page. To watch it, you'll need to dl Mame32 Plus 0.78, available here.Fu wrote:Could you share your video from Shipeg, Ben Shinobi ? (anyway, you kicked yace's ass, good job)
Re: R-type
Thanks for the link! Gotta watch that when I got some time. Bookmarked.

No Missed the first loop, which is all I intended to do.

Added.
Maybe because I've got older (and maybe bit softer in the head) I've decided to re-enter yojo!'s and edges entries; meaning that everyone who submits scores is welcome, no matter how low

Re: R-type
I think that's the better idea, only 10 scores allowed is not much.
