Ginga Force - Score Attack

[Zaarock]

Zaarock - Hard - Type-A - 165,773,960

Very fun game, I'll play it more for sure. The way Type-A:s counter-shield can be used offensively once you get used to it is quite cool. Sad how dead the xbox live leaderboards are, it almost looks like no-one has played for half a year apart from pestro :/

Definitely going to try type-B at some point, I can see why it might be the most fun with the bombs and precise shots. It's also the most unique to the game, since Type-C is the second JSS ship (albeit with a less crazy special weapon).

Great to hear you're playing it Zaarock. Yes the game, specifically Score Attack Hard really does have its merits. I for one will be revisiting the game at some point. You do gotta dig a bit to eke out a score, but it's tangible.

Congrats, Zaarock! That's a good score. Yeah, I assume that most people moved on to SDOJ when the 360 port came out.

Glad to hear that you're enjoying the game. I will try and see if I can increase my score with Type B some time. I know that it's possible to get at least 500k more on Chapter 9 if I make less mistakes and optimize the turret milking.

I forgot to mention this on the STGWeekly episode but the amount of bronze CR that you get from the bullet cancels is actually related to the amount of damage that you deal to the enemy over time. You can easily verify this if you destroy the engines on the back of the battleship on Chapter 9 using Type C's Time Slow down and then destroy one of the engines without the time slow down. That's why I spam the charge bomb with Type B on most enemies that bullet cancel. Just a tip since you mentioned that you would give Type B a go sometime.

Locking this, as there's a new thread here.
