Damn this game is a masterpiece. No shmup yet has matched the awesome of this boss battle. Everything from the atmosphere, to the music, to the sheer intensity of his attack patterns - this blows all of those "bullet hell" memory tests straight out of the water.
Treasure have a gift for boss battles and everyone knows it, be they overthetop bombastic clashes, solemn, heartpounding duels, or simply miniboss filler. They are always, ALWAYS, out of control. Sin & Punishment 2 looks very promising.
I should make a news flash about one of the best video game bosses and I should include the Stone-Like (Radiant Silvergun and Ikaruga) as one of the best video game bosses ever!
Ease in beating Xiga comes from flat out beating him before he gets hard. First form you can kill without it firing a shot, second form is also easy because the first time he fires shots at you none of them target you except the ones coming from his hands. You can sit in the middle and move up and down and never get hit. Third form is flat out easy to dodge long enough to kill, same with 4th.
XIGA is such a bro.
Enjoy your divine wrath.
Be praying indeed.

still one of the coolest bosses i've ever known thorought game history.
too bad he's soo underrated.
Sephiroth (from Final Fantasy VII) comes pale when compared with this guy!
Even i'm sure that one of Devil May Cry IV (Playstation 3) boss has somewhat copied this boss idea!
yes, this boss XIGA is *THAT* influential & cool!!
Be praying!!

0:00-0:03 - And with those words, the Stone-Like brings forth its final minion.... an avatar of wrath.
Good lord, Hyperion from Einhander has got nothing on this guy. At least with Hyperion, you have plenty of room for movement.

My god... Ultraman's gone MAD with power!
Seriously, though, good video. Excellent gameplay by the way.
