- Ikaruga Final Chapter 5 -Hard with Ending
Quotable Quote:
Arguing which game is da hardest is like competing in Paralympics, even if you win, you are still __________ (fill in the box).
Enjoy the show. =) - Ігри
As far as the official "story" of the game goes, realizing that the artifact must be destroyed, the pilot of Ikaruga disables the limiters on its weaponry. Doing so overheats the ship, causing it to explode. So it's more of a heroic sacrifice than anything else.
You probably won't see this, but I wish in the two player ending, the Stonelike was destroyed before the two ships exploded.
The one player ending is tragic because the pilot dies before he could see the Stonelike be destroyed.
It would be slightly more heartwarming to for the two pilots in the two player ending to know they succeeded before they died.
@@wowalamoiz9489 now you probably won't see this but before the final attack the AI of the Ikaruga asked "was i helpful for you?" We can't listen to the pilot but the AI continues with "I'm deeply grateful to you". When the Ikaruga exploded we know that at least that AI unlike the pilot died knowing his job was done.
Very much so.
To give your life to make the world a better place, even though you yourself will no longer be in it. No nobler sacrifice than that.
No other performance or art piece ever gave me so much shivers as this one.
That one sequence during the final boss where you're trading homing lasers back and forth is one of the rare moments I've seen of gaming zen. You're barely even aware of what's going on, but the mechanic feels so natural, exchanging shots back and forth, that you can focus on dodging the bullets flying all about you. Absolutely incredible. If you look at gameplay as an art form, this fight is a masterpiece.
Does anybody have examples of other games that are able to implement moments like this?
uhh i might be 10 years late but... zero ranger's a good title
It's going to sound weird but the moment where the Ikaruga starts to interchange blasts with the final boss, it's my favorite videogame moment of all time
I am inclined to agree. No other moment has been as impactful without words. Just steady blows between two giants. One for destroying mankind, and one for saving it.
I think the perseverance is what really highlights that moment for me.
It doesn't sound weird, it is epic.
I Actually Agree! The Sacrifice To Destroy The Stone-Like With The "Restraint Device" Is Probably The Most Epic And Emotional Video Game Scene Ever!
This video is older than 90% of Online players in most shooter games
when youtube started...
From what I remember, some says that Radiant Silvergun and Ikaruga are both about cycles. Radiant Silvergun is about cycles by itself.
Ikaruga is about breaking cycles. Each level is sort of symbolic by the names: Ideal, Trial, Faith, Reality, and Metempsychosis.
Congratulations, you have finished the tutorial successfully
Oh I love that last part!
"Energy MAX!!" -Counter hit!!
-"Energy MAX!!" -Counter hit!!
and repeats! XD
When I was younger I always thought it was saying “vanishing lights!!” “vanishing lights!!”
Tests your reflexes, that. Treasure really did make it a point to challenge the player, whenever it came to its games. Even Seven Force on Expert Mode gave no quarter, and some of us were willing to oblige that, myself included.
Man, the pilot of Ikaruga sacrifing himself to stop the Stone-Like...what a sad way for this game to end...
Amazing.
I love how the more you play Ikaruga, the more you realize how impossible it would be for any one person to kill the Butsutekkais and those massive Hitekkais right before Tageri without the shield.
I still cry at the end of the game. That anyone would launch into the unknown, against infinite odds. To face their destiny against an evil that would choke the freedom of me and those I love. Someone I'll never see, never meet... Their destiny~ a journey across the stars. To sacrifice their lives for the future of the potential of people they can never truly know. To die before even truly knowing if they had ever won. To live as no one else would ever dare... a true hero.
Thank you... Ikaruga!
The ending isn't as sad as you think, as both Radiant Silvergun and Ikaruga symbolize rebirth. You travel with the hero through the different stages of the soul until you defeat one of the strongest antagonistic traits; Hatred. Once defeating it you witness him transcend in a blinding light. Of course you can just look at it as him shooting a bunch of lasers and exploding, that works too.
2:10 to 2:55, probably one of the most epic moments on gaming history
"Congratulation! You have maxed the Gamer skill! Prestige to gain 1 level in Touhou?"
"Release the restrain device. Using the released power may result the
possibility of destruction of the ship."
"Was I helpful for you?"
"I am deeply grateful to you."

Great explosions
Epic ending...
One of the most beautiful games I've ever played in my life. Every nuance, crafted to perfection.
Easily one of the greatest games I've ever played. It really packs logic puzzles, fast finger skills and breathtaking cinematic visuals into the most intense game ever made.
The end of the cycle, the destruction of the Stone-Like. Very powerful if you're aware of Radiant Silvergun's story and how this is a spiritual successor/sequel to it.
Epic boss fight! Epic final theme! Epic ending! This is most epic game ever!
Awesome play!!!! Full respect!! Ikaruga is still one of my favorite games (after so many years!!) The Legend Will never Die!!!
Greetings!!
Ikaruga steam PC version is now out.
I know I brought the game when it came out. Sadly it's still to hard for me to beat. I'm used to playing bullet hells then this type of style.
I'm pleased that they brought the game into HD now, the visuals have improved drastically and with full on 60 fps!!!
Best shoot'em up game ever.
Cuando bajas tanto en las recomendaciones y te encuentras con un video de hace 16 años.
Eons of torment...must come to an end.
2:23 How......................................just...................................................HOW...
It's even harder if you switch color before firing your laser, as it will do less damage to the boss, doubling the the time it takes to finish it.
Brains = computers. Reprogram yours xD
I played this stage,too. The boss colours will flip to match lasers he will shoot next
the ending is kinda sad he gives up his life in the end. =[ But its still a cool ending.
There are actually two souls in that ship developed by a scientist who gave the name of the ship "Ikaruga."
After watching it again I can hear it all now.
Thanks
4:30 when you haven't had a bust in over two weeks but s/he is grateful for remedying that with their body
finishing this game takes skills let me tell you, my little brother finished this game more times than i can remenber in hard and he said it was easy, i cant even pass the second level withouth losing a couple of lives in easy mode. Old school is and always will be the best.
NEVER SAY THANKS NEVER SAY THANKS NEVER SAY THANKS NEVER SAY THANKS NEVER SAY THANKS
It is actually.......
ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX ENERGY MAX
You're both correct lol
Dude. The PRECISION. This has got to be the most amazing bullet hell victory ever.
I like how his progress in the game is perfectly synced with the music.
11 years ago..
Towa cso Already... almost 12
@angeldagdag Not in any sense of the word is this true
Man, Kudos to this player. I've never even managed to *GET* to this stage, let alone do this well. Nice.
2:23 Overloaded Energy Maximum Firing Laser Projectiles
That's exactly how I feel! I can quite happily say this games ending has a far more profound effect on me than any game with hours of CGI cutscenes and whiny characters. It's perfect, beautiful. A masterpiece.
Who here after the End?
What is it?
@@ikagura it's from Sonic Frontiers true final boss
i bought this game back when it came out on gamecube and i must say very impressive... ive never gotten past the first part of stage 5 before, that was some amazing play.
Gracias por el gameplay, eres historia y juegas muy bien.
Who would thumb down this video?!
I can only think of people who wanted a higher quality than 240p.
+Pablo Suárez 2006 idiot
Compañero.... eres un dios
Whoa this is friggin epic!
Simply amazing, borderline artistic. :D
I'm guessing, shmup fans, that a 1CC only counts if done on the highest difficult setting.
+Thenextworldwar I wouldnt say that. If you 1CC a game, and tell me you did it on Normal I'm still gonna give you your props.
I can barely finish this game on Easy.
Not chaining, not 1CCing it.
I give myself three continues. If I can't beat it in those three, I don't deserve to beat it on that run.
sounds fair
Cleaning the puke from my keyboard
Xander Fox this gives me a pretty mean headache as well as motion sickness.
I always get goosebumps when I see this~ the music is incredible.
the timing is none other than PERFECT!! I still have this game for the gamecube and 360... you're a pro! take off my hat for you.
ship dies in the end??? to save the world thats kinda sad. I like the last bit where he gives his life up to blow the last boss.
translation last bit Release the restrain device. Using the released power may result the possibility of destruction of the ship.
If you've played Radiang Silvergun, it's actually more bittersweet.
0supermoose Of course. If Ikaruga had failed, the Stone-Like (that evil orange pylon) would've murdered everything on earth, and the time loop would keep going.
This is complete bullshit. No human can do this. What's the point of making videogames this ludicrously hard?
@Ahrun what do you mean the 2 ships at once? You mean one single player playing with both controllers? 🤔
you are freaking amazing. Props.
OMFG!!! You got me amazed! I've seen this video a long time ago, but never rated it, 5/5, you're great!
im goin to buy this game because of your epic play thx man
Wow, looks amazing! I just bought a different shoot em up on xbox live arcade so I will definitely be getting this in the near future.
Oh man you are great, great way to play.
ah... this game brings me back to the days when i played this on my dreamcast... Ikaruga is still an amazing game to this day.
The definition of hardcore. Congratulations!
I love the game, watching that makes me want to play it more.
I am truly, deeply happy that i live in an age where i can play Ikaruga!! LONG MAY IT BE REREMBERED!!!!!
Seriously impressive! I am playing the game at the moment and man is it tough...
your a machine! well done!
This just earned a spot in my favs
that is just amazing
thx i just got its so great!
the word epic, couldn't even explain the epicness of this video
Classic. I love this game. It's just a shame I'll probably never be this good.
that. was. beautiful.
flawless and awesome**
"Releasing restraint device. Using the released power may result in the destruction of the ship. Was I helpful for you? I am deeply grateful to you."
A sad yet awesome ending...
yeah i can hear it, and now i can't stop listening to it XD
The last boss was not the hardest, but it was definitely the most fun moment in this shm'up I have ever experienced.
Every time i see the ending weather it be this vid or me play or someone else playing it still is the most epic ending ever
Good lord, man. That was amazing. You're a regular Lance Guest.
Truly, one of the Last Starfighters.
Bullet hell games are so weird...
But they look fun as hell!
Nice job on the vid.
i love this boss. 4 phases of madness it truly deserves to be a final boss :)
honestly... how can a human brain process all that information so quickly... so impressed!!
never played this game but now i wanna try it! is awesome!
There's something touching about the final confrontation, where the hero puts his all into stopping the relic and absorbs every ounce of energy into the ship, sacrificing himself to ensure its destruction. I'm inwardly cheering him on with held breath at his every deft maneuver, and I don't even know who or what the protagonist is.
There's a real pull to this game. I hope it makes it to The Smithsonian someday.
Holy shit!! That was amazing!!!!
omg.. you are awesome.
wow just amazing
After the final final boss is done firing, you release the restraining device and let out hell...I get shivers down my spine watching the barrage endless bullets slam into the crytal, destroying both it and the ship.
No other videogame has ever done that for me. None ever...
That's more than enough awesome to create a new universe.
The quick reversal and blast thing is insane!
yay! this game looks awesome! i ordered it and it should be here soon!
it upsets me that i can never be as epic as this.
thats amazing. Me and my friend have only got the the fifth chapter once....and that was on normal!!
Wow.. you are really a pro player!!
soooo much respect given
all that focus and a climax at that boss fight.
Absolutely unreal, man.
THIS IS MADNESS
Thats awesome my Afghan Rebell friend.
sad ending but one of my favorite sounding explosions iv heard in a game.
good job man ;P
I guess it is impossible to go through the entire game without dying =D. but nice vid man that was some serious major skills lol.
Quite a splendid play.
Love this game!
@foxxthefox
It being SSDG doesn't exactly excuse it from its problems because so many of its fans like to compare it to other shooters.
