Seconded. Youtube sucks... especially when you're Youtubing other people's videos.

I'm glad Ex-Goku is posting these on youtube too, as I can start watching immediately while the torrents are downloading in the background.

Is it just me, or were 4 or 5 new Death Smiles videos uploaded to d-board? I can't remember which ones I downloaded already.

Lol i'm only posting videos on youtube, that are avaiable for all in the same place; i think the torrent-site link is WELL known!

And i'm writing in the videos description where i'm taking the original video so you can everytime know were to find the hi-resolution videos.

@GaijinPunch: i like to post new videos because i love cave games and i want to share them as more as possible. You all known what those games are and where to find good videos to download... But in the world there are many people that dont know this (and other) shmups forum and that will never come here. With youtube i think everyone can have a chance to see what cave games are. I really dont post them thinking i'm stoling those videos (i'm in contact with the original releaser too); it would be great if i had some personal videos to post, i know, but this is my only resource, and maybe it is for all users here.

I'm only releasing those video thinking is a good thing to do

Actually, that code just isn't working for me at all.

Edit: Turns out the code works best when P2 C is actually connected properly. Also I received the same code from Legend just today, with a note that the next code will be released in late November.

Edit 2: Oh, and it does remember the code between power cycles, as expected really.

When you post a youtube video, please add the torrent link as well.

I abhor the quality of youtube

This looks fantastic. The only thing I don't get is the cow. It feels out of context.

Wow that last boss is one of the coolest looking I've seen in a while. It definately beats a fat woman riding a flying platform. The whole game looks like a lot of fun.

Giant cows don't haunt your nightmares? I'm always running from them but I eat a lot of hamburgers.

No worries. Youtube quality is still crap though.

Health system, as I seem to understand it

touch enemy or hit by small bullet: 1/2 block
hit by large attack or large bullet: 1 block?
life item: 1/2 block increase

Player health seems to completely refill at points, as well.

Primal Rage 2 is here at last.

After watching a few of the full runs of this game, I'm really not feeling very excited about it any more.

Things I don't like so far:
-The scoring system appears shallow and restrictive, strangely similar to Mushi Futari 1.0's Maniac mode in that regard.
-The cut scenes look too long and drawn out, it really looks structured more like a console game than an arcade game.
-The levels look too short (I'd really prefer one long level instead of breaking up the levels into two parts each), and I'm not a fan of the "choose your own adventure" route. It screams "console game".
-Bullet patterns, even at Rank 3, are not very interesting.
-Difficulty, even at Rank 3, appears way too easy for my taste. Another thing it has in common with a console game.
-The polygon(ish?) boxes used in the boss fights (like in the cow fight) look cheap and were done much better in a game like Shikigami II.
-The lifebar is lame. Some things hit you and only half a block is taken away? And you get it automatically refilled to 3 blocks before certain boss fights? Even lamer. Once again, tell-tale features of a console game.

Things I like so far:
-The graphics are great (I don't like that cow either though).
-The music & SFX are very nice.
-Stage 4 looks to be designed way better than any of the others.
-Character designs are nice and the unlockable characters are a neat feature.
-The last boss looks like the one really good boss fight in the game.

Provided they printed up a good deal of these, I foresee huge price drops for this one within the next 1-4 months. A port to one of the new consoles out there within the next year would not surprise me. It's a hori, and as noted above, it has a bunch of console game-ish aspects already in it.

Is it the fastest Cave All Clear of all time ?. Even on rank 3 it occured just one week after its release.

So did Cave sell out to main stream and made the game too easy ?

On which level is the cow ?

Plasmo · Post by **Plasmo** » Sun Oct 28, 2007 12:16 pm

the cow is the stage 1 boss and reappears on the last stage as a regular enemy (and i actually like a cow being an enemy)

New character is awesome... can't wait to see what the next code will do

Is it a cow?

I thought it was a bull...

...called 'Mary'

Post by **system11** » Sun Oct 28, 2007 3:07 pm

Actually I think it's a wild boar. How someone could think it's a cow is beyond me.

Its actually an Ox (Oxen). Per Wikipedia:

Oxen (singular ox) are large and heavy set breeds of Bos taurus cattle trained as draft animals. Often they are adult, castrated males.

Hence the name Mary.

Usually an ox is over four years old due to the need for training and to allow it to grow to full size. Oxen are used for plowing, transport, hauling cargo, grain-grinding by trampling or by powering machines, irrigation by powering pumps, and wagon drawing.

You can see the harness on it.

have now the 1cc

great game, but the scoresystem is not my favorite
also sime sprites doesnt fit with the game

and for the some player perhaps the game is to easy

but i like it, feels great for playing
looks good,
sounds goos,
is good

GaijinPunch · Post by **GaijinPunch** » Sun Oct 28, 2007 3:37 pm

Top score at Mikado for Casper is 243 mil :/
There was a guy there playing Rank 3 the whole way...definitely makes it harder, and helps the score, as you can turn the suicide bullets to points. They also have a video deck setup to record your runs, which is likely where some of these videos are coming from.

Actually I think it's a wild boar.

2000% not a boar.

1: Doesn't look like it in the very least
2: Kanji says "Giant Cow Mary"

...it could mean ox though. If you look up the word Ox, the kanji are "castrated" and "cow". Not so sure on that one.
