You can't even see the bullets, right?
Just got the PAL version, Gekioh: Shooting King, yesterday and No Mercy mode is completely insane. I can only last a few seconds. And no, you really can't see the bullets.
What? There's a PAL version? Wow, I managed to totally miss that (and I do A LOT of PAL PSX hunting)
I missed it too. my friend found it in one of those cheapo shops (like Poundstretcher, only called something else which I can't remember). They were selling new sealed PSone games for £1.50. Knowing how much I loved shmups, he got me a copy.

I didn't realise it was Shienryu till I started the first level and thought, hmmm this looks familiar.

There's shitloads of new ones on ebay going for £1.99 now.

Raiden DX, Training Mission 2nd Loop, Arcade Difficulty. I swear the bullets look like they move slower when I watch my replay over. And then they decide to move at the speed of snipe when I have a joypad in my hand >_<*

Also Raiden DX at anything above Arcade Difficulty (Arcade4 is a bit of a nightmare).

Batsugun Special at higher loop difficulties can be unmanageable as well.

I believe that's the fastest I've ever lost all my lives in a shmup.

I believe it's a Gekioh exclusive. Could be wrong though.
