Recorded just two days after tropical storm Pedring struck our country. Dedicated to all the victims that were struck during the day. Please pray for them.
This is my 2-ALL single credit run of Raiden Fighters 2 Boss Rush mode. 1-lifed the entire first loop, then managed to make it past the 2nd loop with no lives and bombs in stock. Dealing with the entire run requires a lot of quick boss killing, and you must know where the bombs will spawn for you to gain advantages against the bosses.
First loop:
1 life clear. I didn't bomb on the first 5 bosses here. Stage 6 boss' attack patterns are so tricky, so I decided to bomb them, same goes for Stage 7 Boss. I grazed through st7 boss' side turret to earn enough points. Bombed again at Last Boss' 2nd and final forms to finish the battle qucikly.
2nd loop:
Slammed stupidly through the 1st boss' 2-spam spread attack on it's 2nd form. Bombed my way past every boss. Stage 6 Boss' suicide bullets got my 2nd life. St7 boss grazing is the same as before, but got to it so soon. For 2nd Loop Last Boss, I used the Slaves' snake formation to block it's first attack. I also bombspammed my way past him. And LOL, the suicide bullets from it's big explosion thought it's gonna hit me, but I safely brought the entire loop to a close.
Special thanks to SFKhoa for the initial 'Fairy' Boss Rush video, which I used as initial strategies to finish the 1st loop. I also thank my fellow Filipino friends for telling me that 'everything is possible'.
P.S. This game is also on the Xbox 360 under the 'Raiden Fighters Aces' compilation, except without this 2nd loop.
