A channel dedicated to providing playthroughs of great arcade style games, both new and old. With a focus on one credit clears (1CC), but don't expect any superplays. Instead these videos intend to demonstrate what an average player can achieve with a bit of practice. Brought to you by someone just as old as Space Invaders ;)
Super XYX (PC) - Arcade Normal - Green Knight - 33.172.480 points
Green Knight is the standard spread fire ship. Relatively weak, but very easy to get long combos going. It also has a nice looking bomb.
Pretty good run and score overall. Had 2 deaths I think, One at the Dragon Heir boss during The Gauntlet stage (which seem to happens a lot to me). And the other death at the TLB, where I should have just bombed, as that costed me 4M or so in points.
00:00 Beginning
02:31 War Zone
04:35 Sea Attack
07:25 The Gauntlet
15:34 Alien Womb
18:36 Hellfires
21:31 Galaxy Battle

Super XYX (PC) - Arcade Normal - Carrotyzer - 39.621.930 points
Переглядів 216 годин тому
Carrotyzer plays really different from Cobra. Besides the obvious homing shots, these shots are far less powerful. Which means its harder and takes longer to out out enemies. However, it also means its easier to keep the combo going, and get it higher, thus getting more points. I am really happy with this run, and the score is double that of my run with Cobra. I did have a silly death in Sea At...
Super XYX (PC) - 1CC TLB - Arcade Normal - Cobra - 19.693.460 points

Super XYX is truly awesome. Its the most fun I have had so far with a shmup. And I so dig that art style. There are plenty of truly different ships to unlock and choose from. This run is with Cobra, probably the easiest ship for survival. Its main weapon has a decent spread and is quite powerful. Its bomb is also top tier. The run starts out pretty good, and I manage to get through The Gauntlet...
Elemental Master (Mega Drive) - All Cutscenes
Переглядів 428 днів тому
Elemental Master is a top down scrolling shooter developed by TechnoSoft for the Sega Mega Drive and released in 1990 in Japan and in 1993 in North America. It has a few cutscenes that are mostly still images, and not as good as Lords of Thunder, but still worth a watch and listen.
Elemental Master (Mega Drive) - 1CC - Difficult - 389.550 points
Переглядів 428 днів тому
Elemental Master is a pretty good Sega Mega Drive shooter developed by TechnoSoft. Though their Thunder Force games are definitely better. The music is top notch as can be expected from TechnoSoft. Unfortunately, the sound effects from your weapons are quite bland and drown out the excellent music. I really like that this is a shooter where you are walking on the ground, as apposed to flying in...
Drainus (PC) - 1CC - Arcade Extended - 2.349.796 points
Переглядів 4Місяць тому
This game is fantastic, it looks amazing, feels great to play, and is so much fun. The game is on the easy side though. Mainly due to the invulnerability you get on using a bomb, and the fact that you can upgrade the bullet absorption bar way too much. Regardless I highly recommend this game! This run was pretty good. No deaths, just some stupid mistakes leading to losing the multiplier. Notice...
Gley Lancer (Mega Drive) - 1CC (Search) - Normal - 1.470.800 points
Переглядів 7Місяць тому
I wanted to play this game for a long time, but never got to it. Its been re-released a few times with English subs, but this is the original Japanse version for the Sega Mega Drive. Though I am playing on the PC using the Genesis Plus GX core in RetroArch. My opinion is that this is an above average shooter, and not as good as most people state it is. This is mainly due to bullet visibility be...
Lords of Thunder (Sega CD) - All Cutscenes

This game sure has some nice cutscenes. Remember this game is from 1995, whereas the original PC-Engine release is from 1993!
Lords of Thunder (Sega CD) - 1CC (Earth Armor) - Hard - 1.663.190 points
Переглядів 14Місяць тому
The last of the armors, and my favorite one from the original PC-Engine version. At level 3, the explosions that occur when your energy balls hit something, are insanely strong and melt through larger enemies and bosses. Unfortunately, that is not the case in the SegaCD version. The weapon feels distinctly underpowered here, and is definitely the weakest of the 4 armors. Overall, I struggled qu...
Lords of Thunder (Sega CD) 1CC (Fire Armor) - Hard - 1.718.720 points
Переглядів 27Місяць тому
1CC of the Sega CD version of Lords of Thunder, on Hard difficulty, using the Fire Armor. The fire armor is somewhat hard to use, as the color of your own fire is similar to most enemy shots. Thus its easy to get clipped by something you are barely able to see. The sound of your weapon at Level 3 is rather annoying, and it appears to cause most other sound effects to not happen. Not sure if thi...
Final Vendetta 1CC (Miller) - Hard
Переглядів 26Місяць тому
Miller is definitely not my favorite character. I find him overall to be too slow. Many times enemies will just interrupt you and start beating you, which rsults in quickly loosing a lot of health. He does have some interesting mechanics, like the elbow drop on downed enemies, that can keep multiple enemies on the ground. He is also the fastest with swinging a pipe / sword / bat. And obviously ...
Final Vendetta 1CC (Duke) - Hard
Переглядів 17Місяць тому
The more I play with Duke the more I like him. He plays quite different from Claire, and its harder to juggle enemies. But he makes up for that in increased power, and a very cool flaming fist combo move. The first 4 stages went pretty well, but then I got sloppy/greedy in stage 5 and lost 2 lives. Stage 6 started out surprisingly well, until I had a stupid death. Still can't play a decent end ...
Final Vendetta 1CC (Claire) - Hard
Переглядів 232 місяці тому
A truly fantastic beat-em-up. Great move set, not too long, and no hand holding. I think that Claire is probably the easiest character to play with, as she is fast, and its pretty easy to air juggle enemies. The run itself is okay. I did some stupid things that cost me a couple of lives. But with all the hidden extends you can afford to mess up from time to time ;) 00:00 Intro 00:15 Stage 1 - T...
Lords of Thunder (Sega CD) 1CC (Wind Armor) - Hard - 1.728.720 points
Переглядів 142 місяці тому
1CC of the Sega CD version of Lords of Thunder, on Hard difficulty, using the Wind Armor. Wind armor feels stronger then the Water armor. It seems to penetrate enemies better, is more useful during boss fights, and its bomb is much better. Though you don't get a back shot like the Water armor at power level 3. Again I have to emphasize how overpower the sword weapon is, just look at the final b...
Lords of Thunder (Sega CD) 1CC (Water Armor) - Hard - 1.757.410 points
Переглядів 142 місяці тому
1CC of the Sega CD version of Lords of Thunder, on Hard difficulty, using the Water Armor. Though Hard mode still feels like Easy mode, compared to the PC Engine/TurboDuo original. This difference mainly comes down to how over powered the sword weapon is in the Sega CD version. Plus the fact that you actually get a bit of invulnerability after getting hit. Still the game is a lot of fun to play...
