@PIKAKP68 what are you talking about? This is exactly the same.

This looks like it is on a hard setting as I played alot of (original)machines and on most of them they did not fire at you when they were going into formation at stages 1 and 2. This made it easier to let them stack up on stages 1 and 2 because I was always told that if you wait until they break away and go into attack before you start firing on them you get more points. Not sure if that was true though.

It about the same as the original. ..about being the key word.
