Rock hard but ultimately really rewarding. The feeling of being able to get through a level without losing a life is what I love about this genre and Cave in particular. Going for combos is beyond me - best I have done is chaining level 1 of DoDonPachi. :) I still have the PS2 port of this game which is great and has a rather good practice mode but it doesn't have Black Label mode which feels a bit easier. It's M2 and their usual classy effort. Kind of a no brainer if you like collecting and playing shooters. Only slight downside is Super Easy Mode is too easy as I 1CCed it first go. Would be good to see a better stepping stone to the full on arcade mode. Novice modes always seem to be too easy though. An "all English" option would be appreciated too but you can't have everything.
yeah i'd love an english menu in these games as the options are very detailed. i don't like interacting with the menu in M2's ports in general, and it makes it more frustrating in japanese (we are never going to see these games released over here tho...) i have enjoyed this game so far, like you say super easy mode is super easy!
I totally agree about the easy difficulty. I don't know what they don't do 10 difficulty steps between super easy and normal? Mind you. Though I finished super easy mode on my first go too I only had one life left.
