We've seen 'em, we love 'em, now post your favorites! Either in or out of context, whichever you prefer.

In Touhou first stages are harder than this shit

From this.

[Patashu]

Can't have a topic like this without the classic:

I don't see how this is that hard. Is this game like touhou? Because it seems like all you have to do is change to being invulnerable to purple bullets, watch for the blue lasers, and shoot your heart out.

"go play mars matrix."

Great advice by a Southern man.

Lord Hypnos is dat U ??

raystorm for ps1 is one of the best games. it can get super bullet hell on not easy difficult. but will teach you how to play. is sorta like guitar hero. with its strategy and what not.

Regalsin is dat U ??

[CStarFlare]

I kind of wish we could have just one point and laugh thread.

[FerociousSwan]

Oh I do love those touhou YT comments ...
Almost as much as the tool assisted accusations against great players.

Yeah this is probably my favorite. It just raises so many questions "What touhou is he playing?" and "What blue lasers?" just for starters

Close second:

I like the part where I turn on my Dreamcast and start playing Mars Matrix.

Nah, I know Rob is from Alaska

I really wonder how long it will be until we post a comment from a member that was trolling.

YT comments are generally sad+funny on any subject, but here's a couple gems from this Progear longplay (turn down volume):

just one question who is the idiot who invented this game? can not move back in front of the enemy attack the bosses, not to mention their ridiculous attack patterns thanks Capcom

Capcom didn't make the game...

There's no way anybody can defeat this without cheating. @21:00, he's flying through bullets.

Yanno, I'm not very familiar with the arcade scene, but I'm pretty sure that they wouldn't make a game that was actually unbeatable without cheating. I mean, come on, I don't think there's any money in being that sadistic.

[Blinge]

Guys don't worry, it's being handled.

I've contacted capcom and asked them to do Progear 2.

but wait! there's more..

how am I gonna contact Cave since the website is japanese?

=[

I could name many arcade games that are virtually unbeatable by design without credit feeding, particularly Western ones.

Any that some incredibly dedicated person hasn't 1CC'd?

I've heard the legends, but generally assumed them to be exaggerations, though I suppose anything's possible.
Now the question is, is it sadism or incompetence? (And did these make any real money...)

[cave hermit]

COD is so much better then this shit

[Bonus!]

Not sure how I feel about the side bars covering more width than the game screen

[majik989s]

I'm not really sure how I feel about these style of bullet hell. On the hardest difficulty, these games become less about maneuverability and more about only moving just enough to leave space between yourself and the enemy's projectile.

I think I really prefer games like Ikaruga and Radiant Silvergun...where there's actual maneuvering and more can be cleared without persistent memorization and/or constant continues (and tokens)...

If only they realized that Cave games DON'T need memorization and can be cleared with "actual maneuvering." Ikaruga and Radiant Silvergun are two of the most heavy memorizers I can think of! In fact, playing Radiant Silvergun without following a chain path makes it terribly hard by the second stage due to low weapon levels.

Sigh

This classic video

[Blinge]

Everyone riffs on that video but it's the reason many shmuppers even started, myself included

My browser keeps autocorrecting the topic title to "shmup retarded youtube comments." :[

This pathetic excuse for a human being makes me sad to be alive.

There's no way anybody can defeat this without cheating. @21:00, he's flying through bullets.

I've received a comment like this irl. At first he thought I was good, but then he saw a bullet pass over the ship and he's like "oh he's cheating" and everyone who was watching me walked away. I'm pretty sure I died once before that, too.

[Blackbird]

Just saw this one. Pretty funny =D.

"Looks like bullet hell... *puts on sunglasses* ...froze over. YEEEAAAHHH!"

[CStarFlare]

That had better be from a fairy wars video.

[Blackbird]

It was from a Bullet Soul video where Khoa cleared the first stage and most of the second without moving the ship at all =P.

[mamboFoxtrot]

These are just regular funny:
From this Espgaluda II video.

THESE BULLETS ARE NOW DIAMONDS.

Oh man, if I could makes games at all I would do that so hard. Old Spice: The Shmup Your Shmup Could Smell Like DIAMONDS LABEL EDITION

And yet another joke on AsteBreed's unfortunate title...

Didn't this game's creators ever learn about the birds and the bees? You can't use an Astebreed.

[NRS]

From ben.shinobi's Radiant Silvergun (Xbox 360) replay:

Emmaeus Goose

LONGPLAY: Game played in very slow motion, then replayed back at full speed.

No way in hell someone can play flawless at normal speed, unless: you don't blink, have to pee, cramp fingers, or scratch an itch in 1.5 hours of intense gameplay

Ha.

"I eat bees for breakfast" on a Dodonpachi TLB no-miss.

This was of course followed by flame wars between people who can't no-miss Hibachi and the alleged bee-eater. In the end he said that he just thought it was funny and never played the game before.
