      Former Williams composer Brian Schmidt (Black Knight 2000, Banzai Run, Swords of Fury) did the music for the majority of the games shown in this video; he didn’t do Robocop or Phantom. Schmidt invented the BSMT 2000 (Brian Schmidt’s Mouse Trap) sound chip that’s used in the majority of DE/Sega’s pinball games.

    @VV-ho8dg หลายเดือนก่อน

    I can see why you'd put Double X on the first spot. But there's one reason that brings it down for me: There's only the free play mode (atleast I couldn't find a way to enable the more traditional credit system), which tbh kinda sucks. What's the point if the game doesn't slap me in the face and tell me to start over once i've died more than I thought possible? There's no stakes when a text saying "credit(s) 2" isn't haunting in the corner for the entire run! I can ofcource restrict myself with my own rules, like not pushing continue after a certain amount of deaths. It works, but it feels off when I'm the one willingly going to the game over screen and not the game just putting me there by force. For that reason and because I like crabs, Metal Slug 3 is my favorite of the franchise. XX is still awesome though!

    First off, enjoy your vids quite a bit, exactly the genres and systems i like seems to be covered a lot with humor and fast/good editing so whats not to love? Tried out Viper phase one yesterday and i guess i went in with 'Raiden in space' but hmmm the gameplay does deviate a bit mostly based on the weapon types (which you did mention) i am curious though what the link is? This the first time i heard it mentioned as Raiden spin off? Do agree it looks very nice indeed and will def play it more.

    • @wigglesarcade8261
      @wigglesarcade8261 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It definitely feels and looks like a classic Raiden game to me, and it was also created by the same dev team. I'm assuming the programming underneath the space theme and gameplay is probably the same or very similar to Raiden II also. On top of that, it's pretty universally considered part of the Raiden franchise despite lacking the name in its title.
