And yes, the point of the game is to kill Tetran from Salamander 70 times. It doesn't get any harder every time.

They just throw in some bullshit arbitrary time limit that serves no purpose.

I kinda like the game too, but I can't recommend this to anybody. It's a good break from competitive games though.
I hate how every boss from the video's i've seen has that patented Raiden spiral bullet pattern. The bullets are so far spaced you don't have to do much to dodge them. Oh well. Maybe if i get msp's ill buy this game.

I agree with you 100% on this. Good post.

I like 0 Day Attack on Earth. 1200 MS points was a bit too much. Sales will be bad because of this. Anyone played online yet?. I have had some pretty lagging games. Best games are when i play with players from England. I would only recommend buying this if you liked Space Invaders Get Even. Anyone from England who would like to play online with me please message me thank you.

I played with three Japanese players last night and they were very good. Talking away on their mics. Not much lag. As i get better at the game the online lag becomes less of a problem. Well done SFKhoa on your great hi scores. He's number one on the leaderboards. I am going to try and improve my scores.

Hey, thanks a lot! I'm only no.1 on the Easy leaderboards though, I got dethroned pretty bad on Normal and Hard. :/
Anyway, the game seems to reward you more on how fast you destroy the main targets and finish the stage. I tried killing every small enemy before killing the targets and it seems to reward you less due to the remaining time.

EDIT: Spoke too soon, I got dethroned on Easy. :D

FFXII was fantastic? TWEWY isn't half bad? FFXIII pretty much looks like FFX all over again (and FFXIV will probably be FFXI all over again)? Not very clear signs of "shit streak".
I would say feeling sleepy when playing those are signs that those games are not very good. They all got nice production values, but I'd rather go play FFT, Brave Fencer Musashi, Einhander or games from other devs.

1) Play really good and don't die. 2) Play online co-op. 3) Rank up.

I have unlocked a few new aircraft and new skins by doing this. Sorry i can not be of any more help. keep your chin up son.

The slowdown makes an already bland game even worse.

Do not want.
