G-Darius Ver.2! The Best AND HARDEST Shmup I've Ever Played! Taito Arcade Long Play

[@neogiu000]

G-Darius is my favorite game on the PS1
I had no idea about this ver. 2, but holy hell, I can see how much harder it is

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

Yeah it’s night and day harder!

The first stage in the vanilla version of G-Darius is a cakewalk. In Version 2.0 you feel a sense of accomplishment just by not running out of lives by the time you beat the first boss lol. It's super awesome too in the 2.0 update (for the M2 port) that you can now see Boss HP as one of the gadgets along the borders, not just for how much HP they have left but also to compare a boss's toughness to the others throughout the game.

One can watch this longplay just to hear the music 😊

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

That’s why I upload them :)

[@Kaido_928]

Kinda hard to hear the music with all the sfx.

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

They can def interfere a bit but it’s all part of the charm

[@Charlie-Cat.]

Wow! You aren't kidding VGE. Just by looking at it, it looks like a challenging game to play. 8^)

haha it is NOT easy

0:11 NET WORK. I wanna be able to find a sound player that lets you play the song and remove sounds. The OST version plays the loop a few times and removes that cool ass intro sound on the downbeat to give it some variation but I wanna just hear things tracked out. Plus it has a lot of bass if you have subwoofers

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

Could pick apart the rom to try

[@GamerGee]

@@VideoGameEsoterica what’s the best way to do that.

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

That I’m not 100% on

[@GamerGee]

Is there a way to access to the sound test.

[@VideoGameEsoterica]

I am not aware of one

[@VideoGameEsoterica]
