Ikaruga Chapter 3 - Faith (Hard Mode)

[EdwardNavu]

I get this finally. When you attack certain kinds of the enemies, they will release some bullets to you after they die, if you are in the same state(black or white) as their "dying" attack, you absorb them.

However, can you collide yourself with enemies at the same state?

[Terramax]

"He deserves every credit "

He doesn't need any extra credits XD

[jonoisgood]

is this being played on dreamcast or gamecube?

[Warzak77]

2:29 - 2:40 ...

[cianiscian]

I am incredibly impressed. The skill on display here is beyond remark.

[trianguloelectrico1]

not human

[leonardorojasc]

juega exelente este tipo

[seohyunseohyun]

HOLY ...

[SonictheBedHog]

Damn. They don't make games like they used to.

[Ayel91]

I dropped my jaw after seeing how he beat the boss.

[sonicdudeguy1]

@Ayel91 yeah but search touhou and youl know why this is small fry...

[Broyale26]

@sonicdudeguy1

You mean Cave?

[jerphunter]

I accepted this long ago...I just don't have the required dexterity and reaction time to play these games... I respect the players skill however it frustrates me to know I would never be good at this game. :(

[burnoutpro15]

I FUCKING HATE THIS BOSS!

[Dradogs2]

still this is not as hard as th game i wanna be the guy

[burnoutpro15]

@Dradogs2 STFU ABOUT IWBTG! most people know of the first boss music as mecha birdo, but i say BUTSUTEKKAI BITCHES!

[Uzumaki82]

godlike...

[curtisb3000]

I am good with this dying genre of shooters, but this guy is really good. He must of practice hardcore for awhile to get to this point.

[ghonszah]

The rules are simple: Turn white to kill white enemies, and turn red to kill red enemies...Easy, right? HOLY SHIT NO!

[dragonbaas]

i never played ikaruga but is ikaruga one of those games that makes you think: "is this easy mode?!?!? i wonder what hard must be like"

[Schokomario]

@dragonbaas no first normal mode... the hard mode is just for superfrantic and INSANE gamers!

[thedarkwolf67]

"ENERGY MAX"

idk y but i find that sound so cool

[vittau]

Man that was fucking beautiful.

[ModelOmega]

I ha ba ja WHAT.

[3niDougla]

@ModelOmega

lmao

[Quantum0700]

My greatest claims to Ikarufame: beating the game on Normal (albeit with several continues), and an A+ rank on FINAL Chapter (albeit in Prototype Mode, and intentionally suiciding to get more ammunition).

How someone could even manage THIS flabbergasts me to no end.

[Alphablast001]

Damn! and I thought Gradius had menacing bosses!

[RomanOfSparta]

jeeez, i have such trouble beating any stage on any difficulty, and i die so many times, i dont even attempt to get chain links and when i do try i fail misserably, how do ikaruga masters like rna do that and make it look like a breeze o.0

[Mentaldpx]

i love this game simply cause i am the only person i know in RL that can beat this game on hard mode :P my friends cant get past this stage on medium! XD they cant beat lvl 5 on easy :P

[reincidentepunk]

@Mentaldpx NoOb...."I can beat this game in hard, my friends can't...I'm AWESOME"...please, grow up. I LOVE this game, awesome gameplay, awesome soundtrack, a sad ending....EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!

[tylewisable]

rna desrves a medal

[MrCh33pshot]

You sure it's not you? :D

[Kagemusha213]

this makes me realize how much of a noob i am. i can never make it past the first minute of this level...

[crackorjackzors]

Oh my god.

[CalmedNutHead]

einhander??? hahahahaha great game in every way and a tragedy for it not having a sequel but this my friend is IKARUGA!!

[maddash24seven]

To apply the term "hard mode" to Ikaruga is almost laughable. On easy, it's still one of the hardest games you will ever play.

[CraigGame]

i forgot to close my mouth throughout that clip...thats just apocalyptic 0_o

[narsingdih]

are you god?

[BdaleD]

RNA- Robot Not Ahuman

[XxFulgrimxX]

The precision for the control of Ikaruga is too inhuman.

[MetaPhoenix770]

im getting confused just watching this array of bullets

[666Winterdemon666]

i can defeat the boss on easy... but thats so fucking hard xD and than in level 4 i go under... no chance xD

[Invertedzero]

level 4 just no hope for me... can get good results on 1,2 and even ok on 3,5 but 4 is a joke

[nikolasbelmont]

This is the guy I'd want at the helm if it came to saving the world with a 2d fighter O.O

[Geass300]

im sure if ikaruga ever had a god, it would be named RNA

[anthony6994]

dude this boss is like..... wow

[subgrinder]

incredible in xbox live arcad i try to be in the top 1000 lol

this guy is not a mortal man lol

[Cous1000]

I love this stage. You are practically guaranteed to die 3+ times on your first run through if you don't know what's coming.

[sockbat25]

fuck me, thats insane

nevertheless awesome

[masterkill107]

you want crazy difficulty?

you should try einhander

[anderseb2007]

I like how at 1:22 the actual level starts... and by then your mind is already blown

[A9AFHyena]

Im crying bro,,,,,,,,

[CappaCapone]

Crazy Guy ! I just got that game and its awesome i think i can play like him in like mhhh lets say 15 years? I tried on normal its too sick for me ! But ill practice this game ROX!

[AVLACDN]

i guess even the game designers never thought that someone would play this game like RNA does

[unlessitsafarm]

1:57 x_x

[Edelbluete]

oh god...

i thought that boss would be sick on normal mode. but on hard, it gets REALLY pissed.

[snaredice]

this guy should try being a pilot in real life i'd cheer for him

[EdwardNavu]

Can the pilot attack by colliding the enemy with the field around his/her plane?

[TheOboeNerd]

RNA is my new god.

[Ammit5]

What is playing this game? Clearly it is not a person! (Oh my god he's got insane skills!)

[Benmonkey6]

this is one crazy mother fucker

[Br0k3nS41nt]

This game is not a game it is a dance. An extremely hard dance.

[Napstrpsx]

WHO IS RNA? ;_;

WHAT IS RNA?

It's not human.

[MT12XD]

holy shit...... this is far beyond awesomeness.

epic game, epic music, epic player.

[Chamele7n]

I always die from the guy at 2:46. What a bastard. Not that I go pass the boss without dieing anyway.

[Jwvermillion]

...RNA is just...amazing... He really is a master of this game...

[Daco65]

holy shit

and im having trouble with easy (just got it 3 hours ago)

i declare contra and ikaruga the hardest games ive EVER played D:

[trollock]

max chain

[chantimothy]

is chains of max chain...

[OmegaWeaponX25]

This game is impossible to !CC. Except for certain people it seems...

[kidsnextdoori]

I can't pass this stage without dying. You are so AWESOME!

[metroidrage]

It's not me.

[Superlodahl]

The music in this stage kicks major much ass!!!

[moman007]

this guy is so good i think i'm gonna throw up

[thepowerofIandI]

if you think this shit is hard now, wait until youre actually playing it.

[Nintega]

Watching this video make me wonder if this person playing it even goes outside? o_O

[EM101010101]

comments like this are so damn stupid and irrelevant its untrue dont concern yourself with the guys social situation just embrace the skills on display and understand the dedication it takes to get this damn good.

[Nintega]

You can't be serious. One has to be a complete hermit playing this 24/7 to be at that level in Ikaruga. It isn't healthy man.

[armydominican69]

not really, some people juss have a talent for these types of games where you maneuvear enough to avoid them enemy shots, some juss have very sharp hand-eye coordination, yea it takes time and practice, but seriously now, dont make the guy into a "hermet" from what he accomplished there

[Jwvermillion]

That's entirely true there... I have to say, he's quite the master. You have such skill like that is just...amazing no...perfect even!

[zet666]

lol this game is sick

[somefellow12345]

The Merry-go-Round of death...has died.

Awesome video.

[knightonlinefan]

OMG!!!!

this stage was always my favorite!!!!!!

[HeliosExeunt]

Ah yes...another tactic for defeating this boss is to...destroy all the cannons of the same polarity?

[genesisplan]

awesome

[M1de23]

Damn!

[XtraZero]

Holy shit shit moves fast in hard mode. Shigi's satellites and the boss were spinning so fast I got dizzy lol.
