Cho Ren Sha Review - Additional Info

Post by Yurupari »

Hey, the review section rules sent me here. I just read the Cho Ren Sha review and I wanted to add a small information: The review states that you have to choose one of the 3 powerups (bomb/shootup/shield) but in fact you can fly into the middle of the spinning powerup triange and it will start to rotate faster and faster. If you manage to stay inside for ~3 seconds you get all 3 powerups at once. This way you can collect bombs while upgrading your shot in the early stages very fast.

Hope I could help.

No idea which review you're reading, but this is a very well known technique by the people who play the game, as you can see from the strategy thread: http://shmups.system11.org/viewtopic.php?t=3189

Maybe this is the guy who made chorensha, and he got scared for the review not mentioning that

It's okay, the board is fine. Cargar's response wasn't really mocking either.

It could have been a lot worse. Trust me.

The front page reviews are ancient and quite out of date (and kind of average, to be honest.)

A mod might consider updating with some of those in the forum review section, but the main section of the site has been left to fall into disrepair for many years now. The forum is where it's all at.

Some of 'em are all right, but honestly I keep forgetting that they exist. It's not really connected to this site as far as I'm aware (it's not like it's actively maintained anymore), it just has a forum link to here. I thought he was talking about some random review in the forum Review section.
