    I would love to see a 'behind the scenes' of this game's development. The graphics, the long creative levels, solid controls, the fearsome giant bosses, the fact that this game has close to 50 tracks that offer some of those most metal 16-bit music ever heard on a home console.
    There was such much damn passion and care given to this game, it brightly shows.
    Lightening Force / Thunder Force IV..., truly the best shmup on the Genesis and 1 of the GREATEST SHMUPS of all time.

    Pretty impressive. The game gets even harder with all the weapons equiped, specially peaks if you have Hunter and Blade. Enemies and bosses shoot more bullets. For example Formalhaut shoots an additional barrage of bullets at its first phase (Hate it) and also at its last. Also depending if you have any extra weapon, on Stage 2 (colony) when you start you fight an additional sub boss. This kind of changes make the game so interesting but also harder, that's why I love it and still my fav shmup ever.

    Christmas came early, 'cause Serg kicked a shmup's ass! Observations:
    What kind of name is "Ratt Carry" for a spaceship to have, anyway!?
    This might sound odd, but one of my favorite aspects of shmups is the vast, detailed backgrounds; cities, countries, whole continents of techno-organics as far as the eye can see.
    Do the mini-bosses prior to the Evil Core have names? You included them but they don't have time stamps.
    I LOVE the little fat guy inside the core goddamn. Giger does The Penguin. He's weirdly cute and seems to be just minding his own business, spinning like that. Who are you to judge his choices!?
    Oh God, the final boss is the great-great-etc-etc grandson of the horrible nigh-impossible crab boss from Order of Ecclesia! Run away! Emperor Gava from Contra is probably a relative too.

    While this game's soundtrack is in my top 3 for the Sega Genesis, it's not even in my top 10 for the soundchip, itself!
    The Megadrive hardware uses a crippled revision of the YM2608, the YM2612, which has a number of powerful features removed.
    The cost-cutting is why the Megadrive has distorted notes, while the PC98 does not.
