its a tough game.
certainly a challenge, considering 3 hits your out, with no way to recover HP.
learn to dodge bullets and you'll do  just fine, and have fun doing it.

I was in need of some new turbo, so i traded a dude for gradius II.
can't say I enjoyed it very much, the music was good though.
my big 2 issues were that the ship speed seemed erratic, giving you no real control, and the hitbox seemed a little off on some things.

I have a love/hate relationship with Gradius II. I pick it up every once and awhile for a playthrough, but I usually mess up on the boss rush/final stage and then it's next to impossible to recover. I did clear it on normal once, but that was a long time ago.

Override is an awesome shooter. I am not sure what it is about it but I like it much more than blazing lasers and super star soldier.

Probably cause it's one of those games that goes under the radar.  It's not talked about very much here but most that have played it love it!  Nice graphics, great music, a little different on the weapon system.  It's just a simple fun well made shooter.

Space Harrier.  Graphics are pretty nice and it's surprisingly a decent port.

Final lap twin - the built in Rpg is hella fun.  The super cheesy enemies that want to race you with names like Bad Betty, Al Under and Guido just adds to it.

I've been playing Gunhed on my GT today (between duties with the kids etc). I haven't played it for years, it seems a bit easy nowadays, but plays very well still.

Finally had a weekend without overwhelming homework so I was able to complete Cosmic Fantasy 2 at last!  The ending was pretty cool & unexpected.  Overall, the game was everything I wanted it to be, which is saying something considering how long I've wanted to play through this thing.  d^__^b

Followed it up with a little Dungeon Explorer.  Maybe I will tackle Bonk next....

Played some Double Dragon II, Asuka 120% burning fest, Salamander, NewZealand Story, and Heavy Unit. :D  Good times, all thanks to MotherGunner who sold / traded them to me :mrgreen:
