Re: Your biggest TLB moments

Post by esreveR »

I recall once playing Raiden Fighters Jet, I had just beaten the huge annoying tank when a fairy came out of it. I was like, "Hey, a fairy! Sweet!" for a moment, then I was like, "Wait, don't only mid-bosses drop fairies? Oh, well fu-"

At that point it was basically "Welcome to a new world of hurt". I've always wanted to no-miss both of them, but I haven't totally done that yet. Mostly because of the tank's godawful slow-bullet-spiral-with-loads-of-aimed-destructible-bullets-meaning-you-can't-just-go-around attack. There's got to be an easier way to do it, but I haven't figured out how.

Tonight was the first night that I saw a TLB. Came nowhere close to beating it but I made it to it. DDPDFKBL 360. I was out of lives and bombs when I beat lvl5 boss. I thought I was done but it lasered the ship down and I thought "wow, this is new" and boom, another boss.

Before I had cleared Mushi Maniac, I got to the stage 5 boss with no lives/bombs left and BEASTED it, but died with like 2 pixels left on the health bar.

Basically did this irl.

Any stage.

When I first killed the huge plane in Flying Shark (in 1987, mind), closely followed by clearing ESPGALUDA. Those tanks on the beach in Flying Shark got me though, so I had to beat that huge plane again. :lol: Checkpoints are silly.

Since I've been posting about it anyway, my biggest last boss moment was when I managed to kill Discharge in APB Advanced. I had the full flushed face, shaking hands, hyper-super-zoned-in thing going. No other genre produces that effect for me....
