Chimera Beast's bad ending, which you get by beating the game (as opposed to the good ending, which you get by losing to the final boss):

BBH wrote:by finishing the game, you single-handedly doom Earth and the rest of the universe to a fate of destruction.

BBH wrote:And the GOOD ENDING won't even give you the staff roll. How screwed up is that?

23:42:43 <tiw-lap> psyvariar 2's plot though
23:42:47 <tiw-lap> perfectly awesome
23:42:54 <tiw-lap> so these psychic atheists were like
23:42:58 <tiw-lap> "guys stop killing each other"
23:43:03 <tiw-lap> and people were like "ok"
23:43:13 <tiw-lap> then these religious types were like "NO NO N ONO NO N O NO" so they made an ai
23:43:27 <tiw-lap> then 1000 years later the ai comes back and attacks non-religious earth

LOL R-13

LOL RADIANT SILVERGUN

Then there's that nasty little part in R-type FINAL where you turn into a Bydo and start killing everything in sight, your former allies included. The worst part is that your character has no clue what he's doing.

I'd say Ikaruga had a Bad end too, but it was pretty ambiguous (Though it did so the stone-like blowing).

Every Donpachi game has a bad end. ESP Ra.De. has that nasty little Iori(?) ending where the lady she saves in the beginning of the games passes her without a second look.

...It would probably be easier to name STGs that don't have bad ends.

Actually in Psyvariar Revision, at the very end when the GUIS (Galactic Unified Intelligence System) is finally defeated, the final question is brought up "Do Human Beings have future?". The remaining surviving gifted humans with Psyonic abilities/powers are the ones who have the potential to rebuild a new Earth. ^_~

The Psyvariar pilot has been awoken from long time (deep cryogenic-type) sleep to fight against GUIS. GUIS is considered the world's first organically created A.I. according to the opening intro shown in Psy-R.

psyvariar 2 elaborates that humans descended into war after the fall of GUIS

Hellfire S
and Nexzr starts out with the bad ending.
I guess Aleste II as well.

Twiddle: In Metal Black, isn't the good ending just "lol, ur sacrifice sents off the other?" I thought the midway(ish) bad ending(s?) was "everybody becomes enrage and fight the alien in the flyspec machines," which leaves, by process of elimination, the ending where just you die for the full game.

It's also worth mentioning that Batsugun was the first (and last) non-endless Toaplan shooter and so all the others are BAD END. Kind of like Pac-Man.

Also, jesus Christ, most endings in the Gunbird games are horrible, but at least sort of funny. Same true of anything from Sonic Wings with Keaton in it, I suppose.

So at the end of Psyvariar 2, what is the outcome? Is there enough of a ending story in Psy-2 for a possible Psyvariar 3 sequel?

There's always Disposable Hero... You can probably figure that one out without too much guessing.

OST (BUY OUR SOUNDTRACK!!!!!!!!) states that there's nothing there (in the bad ending) besides a death wave. prankd

basically in the final stage the enemy brought you to their dimension and it's pretty much the only chance to destroy them by that point

the outcome is: you destroy AI, then you destroy some guy in a robot suit, and that's it

I guess Success Corp. and Skonec would be the ones ask if there'll be a 3rd Psyvariar game. What new storyline could be developed that continues the on-going story between the gifted humans and various A.I. entities? Success had listed on their site, a fancy glossary of some the terminology and exotic technologies for the first Psyvariar Medium Unit game even if it really doesn't make sense. ^_~

Prehistoric Isle teaches us a valuable lesson: Don't fuck with dinosaurs.

The basic story of Nemesis 3 is that the Bacterions go back in time to kill the pilot from the original Gradius while he's still a baby. After you use your Vixen fighter to defeat the enemy and save the kid, you start traveling back to the future and are ambushed by Dr. Venom, the final boss from the MSX Gradius 2. At the end there's a note that the Vixen never returned from its mission.

You can find an item in the last stage that protects you from Venom's attack so you can see the good ending, but it's not as cool.

If you complete R-Type Delta as the R-13 Cerberus, your wimpy lighting cannon can't break through the dimensions and get you back to Earth, and as the credits play you see it all cocooned and Bydo-fied. It becomes an optional boss in Final.

Also, in the endings of R-Type Final you...

F-A: Defeat the Bydo (forever?), but drift in the abyss in your disabled fighter beyond all hope of rescue.

F-B: Become a Bydo, travel back in time to the first stage, and kill lots of R-Types.

F-C: Travel centuries into the future and see... the credits. Wow.

I have to say the game isn't really polished enough to be worth all this trouble. lol

Fun despite the problems though.

Hmmm.... here's my list
Omega Fighters: (bad ending)

lol wut?

and (for me) the notorious Jets n' Guns ending:
After beating Xoxx (the final boss), he activates his cannon and destroys universe. Then, credit roll, and the game will loops back (This game has infinite loop) with everything else you've got (cash, ship, weapons)
But in gold edition, there's another mission after the credit roll, which you can blow out Xoxx with his fortress

That's only if you beat the first loop. Isn't it different when you beat the 2nd loop?

He does that every time a male character shows up in an ending.
