[bbutters2]

I just got my copy of this game the other day and I must say it is far more fun to play than the first one. It's pretty effin cool to play and look at(total eye candy)

[thesavepointdotnet]

@bbutters2 ^^truth. I should get around to getting a backup copy of GW2 and backup Dreamcast at some point so I can have this game to play forever :D

[bbutters2]

@thesavepointdotnet Go for it. By the way how the fuck did you manage to not die on the last boss like that? I die 3 times minimum with bomb usage too.

[thesavepointdotnet]

@bbutters2 I only upped a video where I didn't die. For every one of those there was about 10-20 where I either died or restarted because it didn't look like I was going to score high enough.

[bbutters2]

@bbutters2 I thought of that, still amazing though, it would take me AWHILE before I could ever manage to remember the attack pattern and where to position the ship for maximum avoidance of the bullets. Fucking fun game to play all in all, Dreamcast has these gems that no other system seems to have.

[bbutters2]

I have never heard such epic music in any video game ever. Gets points for that alone . Never played this game but i will be in 3 days as i just ordered it yesterday on Amazon. Can't fucking wait!

[Mundusthe42nd]

Reminds me of touhou...

[fcbahamutzero]

like if Rinry brought you here!

[bbutters2]

This game a seriously epic soundtrack, top-notch, maybe the best of a game of this type ever!

[bbutters2]

Dude, that shit ain't even right dawg!

[coopernius]

Holy....

[kyo4444]

I loved this game! Dreamcast had many problems, but the games were just, breathtaking

[gilesahrun]

Nappa: IT'S OVER 11 QUINTILLIONS!!!

[Virus2020]

Cool you have my name, my name is also Leonardo lol

[C0DESUB]

once i got 11.948.154.667 points. almost 12 quad!

[chazkm]

That was 1.3 trillion not quintillion. Still pretty amazing though. I love Giga Wings but I prefer the 1940s series of shootem ups.

[thesavepointdotnet]

@chazkm

This sounds familiar...yeah, we did the long and short scale counting discussion a while back. We're both right.

[Hakuru15]

hey sorry about that i never knew there was giga wing 2 cause i only play giga wing 1 on pc which im actually good at whats behind the story of giga wing 2?

[C0DESUB]

@Hakuru15 there's also GW 3 and 4.

[thesavepointdotnet]

@C0DESUB

There's GW Generations, don't know about a 4th one.

[OmnileoneS]

Woah, you're awesome at this. Thousands of those bullets and you didn't get hit by a single one!

[mattpryor216]

I love how ridiculous the score system is in this game.

[skeevystoner]

@mattpryor216 I love that too! Like you have to make up a word to tell your friends your score. lol amazing

[superfatttyfatboy]

impossible games,why do people like impossible games?

[thesavepointdotnet]

@superfatttyfatboy - because they're impossible :D

...and we wanna be the person that does the impossible.

[superfatttyfatboy]

@thesavepointdotnet but you dont do the impossible do you?know why? because its impossible thats why.Not much fun either.A challenge is some times fun but most shoot em ups are just silly how difficult they are.Each to their own i guess...

[thesavepointdotnet]

@superfatttyfatboy Lol, technicality! Just count me in the niche group that finds these types of games fun. I find the fun is in working to beat the game without continuing and topping my old scores. Then there's dodging masses of bullets without getting hit, that's always exciting! Besides, if these games really were impossible, there wouldn't be anyone posting up high score or game clear videos on YouTube.

[superfatttyfatboy]

@thesavepointdotnet Well done i suppose.Maybe its not as bad as it seems sure looks like alot going onscreen that was all.My fave old shoot em up was r type on the arcades.It made me mad how i could get to level 5 without dying but then it took all my lives on level 6.Hated them games for doing stuff like that to me.

[BillyCauseyjr]

@superfatttyfatboy I kinda agree.... Bullet Hell gmaes aren;t my thing either but god are they fun to watch. I'm more of a Shienryu/Aerofighters kinda guy.

[Rizuzua]

go for it. I'm sure you'll beat it AND record it this time :) Let's see your name in the book of world records next! :D

[rtsxubz]

this game is crazy i bought this game yesterday for four dollars, i thought ikaruga was crazy but this worse.dreamcast rock.

[TheWholeWorldHatesU]

!! IKARUGA !!

[brtshstel]

If only you could have a penny for every point you earned...

[andy7666]

Wow, awesome skills.. I thought I had high scores!

[Silliconian]

Well Done! Your strategy is very different that me, I know that I can do 14Q and to beat my own score but is very hard, I hope to go in Funspot and beat the record a live.

[thesavepointdotnet]

Thank you! And congrats again. I figured there was something really different in your run that can produce 2Q more points. I know I practically maxed out what I can get with the strategy I used in this video. I'll give it another try when I get around to buying another SVHS to replace the one I killed :-)

[thesavepointdotnet]

I like the 2nd better because of the way the Reflect Force behaves, how there are a good amount of opportunities to use it in the earlier stages, and the added strategy of triggering medal volcanoes. Also, I like that the stages are longer and that you have a smaller hit box. I do like fighting against the stealth fighter in the first one, though.

[Frijo1]

wanted to ask you which giga wing is better 1 or 2.

Thank you for posting

[thesavepointdotnet]

Dreamcast only.

[literalgameboy]

have you played the arcade version, or is it better with a stick (to you)

[thesavepointdotnet]

I prefer shooters (and fighting games) with a joystick, definitely. I've never seen GW2 in an arcade stateside, although, I've heard some people have played it in the UK.

[micxploed]

HA!

This game has an Exaggerated point system altho it is fun to play.

[MechagirlSachiko]

Erm... You have calculated the points wrongly. It is eleven trillions, six-hundred-ninety-one thousand six-hundred-twenty-three billions, seven thousand three-hundred-twenty-six millions, six-hundred-seventy-seven thousand three-hundred-thirty points. Each -llion is preceded by thousands, you know.

Apart of that little mistake... This is truly awesome.

[thesavepointdotnet]

That is also correct, because that's the long scale numbering system. I grew up learning the short scale, so I go up one -illion after every 3 zeros.

In Japan, they mark off every group of 4 places with a special designation. That explains the different colors of numbers on the final tally screen. My score in Japanese would be sen hyaku roku-ju kyu-gai, sen rop-pyaku ni-ju san-cho, nana-ju san-oku, ni-sen rop-pyaku roku-ju nana-man, nana-sen san-byaku san-ju.

If I'm off, blame Wikipedia, lol.

[MechagirlSachiko]

Hmm... I see. So people count differently in different parts of the world, lol.

Quite unexpected, but hey, I expected this as much as I expected a Spanish Inquisition.

[thesavepointdotnet]

"Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!"

[Howboutthinking]

Incorrect, its the same as the civil war, it was seen from a long shot away, the only thing not seen was that WW2 would hit during it

[dorkforceti83]

Hmm last time I checked....

1,000 = thousand

1,000,000 = million

1,000,000,000 = billion

1,000,000,000,000 = trillion

1,000,000,000,000,000 = quadrillion

1,000,000,000,000,000,000 = quintillion

so

11,691,623,007,326,677,330 = 11.69 quintillion

[thesavepointdotnet]

That's 'Short Scale', the method of counting large numbers in North America and many 'western' regions.

[captainnintendo]

Funny. In Denmark it goes like this,

1.000 = Tusind

1.000.000 = Million

1.000.000.000 = Milliard

1.000.000.000.000 = Billion

1.000.000.000.000.000 = Billiard

1.000.000.000.000.000.000 = Trillion

1.000.000.000.000.000.000.000 = Trilliard

And im not sure what comes after that.

[Madhijz]

@captainnintendo

Long scale for the win my fellow European!

[rang3r34]

AWESOME!!! This game looks cool as fuck and your skill is almost super-human!! There should definately be more veiws for this vid!!

[Saur]

Only 42 views for such a fantastic run? People have no appreciation of talent...

[DjDedan]

the music in this game is bananas! and the voices! REFLECTO LAAAAAAASSSSSEEEEEER (only on jp version - US version doesn't have the awesome VO :-O)

[doomsday93]

[thesavepointdotnet]

Wasn't there an option to turn the voices off? My JP version is back home and I forgot.
