Several years ago I 100% completed this level with no misses to the amazement of several people in my living room. It's one of my proudest achievements to date.
This level kicks most people's asses the first time around. the first three levels you can get away with being ass at the guard phase, but this one is really where it turns the dial to 11 for the first time
U-1 let's out this high pitched scream near the start of the song and it sounds wRONG Edit: just as the first note is hit he does it and I die every time
Wtf? I've just been watching all of these videos and this one seems like the hardest song in the entire game. Ugh... I suppose I at least don't feel so bad about getting stuck on it noe though...
Harry Jones This level is indeed completely bonkers! However I'd have to say the hardest level (guard mode specifically) is Sanbone Trio. You start with low health, about three or four misses will kill you, and they make it so that you almost HAVE to lift your left hand to help tap buttons during that one alternating part! Deadly.
Lol watching this is bringing back PTSD. I was stuck on this stage for soooo long as a kid. At least the next 2 stages are easy before stage 7 breaks you down. It's funny because the last 3 stages don't look as hard as stage 7. I also beat this whole game on master without dying once on the PSP version. They HAD to have made the timing much more lenient on PSP.
This is the game that really hammered the PS2 controls into my hands and my hand eye coordination was pushed to the limit. Entirely possible to do with one hand, staring at the dot in the center, but your peripheral vision has to pick up which notes come in faster than others. It’s a fun level.
Back in the day this was a game I would move furniture for. Like you need to take an aggressive stance and be able to bounce around. I could never get past the sanbone trio on masters play; it drove me crazy because I wanted to play tainted lovers it was my favorite song.
This level seems impossible until you realize you don't need to use your left thumb for the analog stick at all, so you can use both thumbs for the face buttons. Then it becomes one of the easiest master play levels
Took me days and days, or weeks, to beat this level on master, and then level 5 loads...not impossible, but took a day or two. Level 6, easy peasy. Level 7 took weeks. Level 8...I don't know how ANYONE can beat this
The game looks awesome, but I hate the fact that all the "press these specific buttons" mechanic has all of them going to a single point. I'd like more of a DDR setup (or at least something similar), where you don't have to judge the minute difference in spacing while also trying to play a rhythm game.
Nope, there are much much more button presses involved, the button presses actually match the music better as well. Try thinking of guitar hero on medium mode vs. hard/master mode, it's a roughly equivalent difficulty scaling.
BeanyOne Excellent!!! This is such a nostalgic game for me, I remember spending hours with my friends trying to get S ranks lol! I'm glad I found these videos man it really brings me back to the good old days. Thank you! One more question if I may. Which song is your favorite to play?

My brain will literally not compute this level. I can honestly never forsee myself passing it. Full brain melt when trying.

I was watching this and my thumb immediately started moving like it was pressing the buttons on its own!
I broke my psp because of this level when i was like 7 lmao
NO YOU DIDNT BREAK IT RIGHT?
Oh. My. I never made it to this level on Master (I think I tapped out at Mojo King Bee). This is RIDICULOUS.
*applause*
This is my favorite song on the soundtrack. The Whammy on the guitar and scattered beat make it sound like some Steve Vai shit, especially at the end.

I only realized recently that its possible to play this level with both hands, ahaha. No wonder it was so difficult, lolol.

This level is crazy. kudos to the ones who made it!

It helps that the song is a bass-heavy banger, at least.
Heck yeah it is. Entire soundtrack is fire.
i can follow stepmania, guitar hero, and other rhythm games, but i cant keep up with what im seeing here:/
My hand began to hurt as itself as I was watching this, timing the button presses looks tough.
This level stimulates my brain! Feels good man

Gosh I remember the end part of the level. Crap that was hard! Then it goes into smooth reggae haha

sharks in space, now i've seen everything
Like God of war with buttons but faster I love it

It is quite crazy indeed.
Ben K is such an unfair fight
somebody teach me how to do this
Is it just me, or is master mode only normal mode but you take more damage?

Beany do you have any of these songs S ranked?
kanardy On my PS2, Panpeus, Flying O, Mojo King Bee, both versions of Ben-K, and both versions of Kirah on Master Play. All Single Play stages.

Tie between Flying O and Mojo King Bee, probably. Special mention to both versions of the Legendary Theme.
God damn this level...
space mecha sharks
