Your penis is wrong.

No thanks

your 'pretty sure' is trumped by my truth. and my dick is never wrong

?

Ikaruga has a myriad of flaws that I can't understand why people seem to ignore. Scoring system is frankly crap; color-based enemy chaining means you have to perfectly shoot in the order Treasure wants you to, unless you want to break your chain by shooting whatever you feel like (or the even lamer option of having to let enemies pass you by because you're afraid of getting a broken chain). So prepare to play like a robot if you ever want to score well in Ikaruga, where routes are even more strict and less interesting than Dodonpachi. But hey, at least it's not as bad as Silvergun's scoring. It also has the infamy of being called super difficult because the game gives you absolutely no items once, so the only way to get extends is first learning the ins and outs of the game in order to score well. However, by then you should be able to no-miss Ikaruga anyways, so what was the point in learning? Now the polarity mechanics are awful because swapping colour invalidates practically all bullet patterns in the game, since you can just absorb everything in your way rendering whatever looks impossible meaningless. This seems neat at first until it becomes a chore to soak up every bullet on screen to raise your score, after you cope with the fact that it turns survival play into a boring cakewalk. Boss designs are rubbish save for the first and last dudes. Mooks have no life to them; most don't even shoot at you and simply drift away. This plus the color-based chaining system makes it feel more like playing a puzzle game instead of an actual shmup. Not to mention the fact that it's grossly overrated due to its OST and graphics (if you dig sepia tones making backgrounds look like dogshit) by casuals who hardly even play shmups. Ikaruga's simply a poor game that for some reason has a cult following that loves to bitch at you if you ever happen to question the quality of their beloved masterpiece.

Come to bed

Pantyhose are also shit.

no sleeping tonight

But it's 6 AM.

Not a huge fan of hime-cuts or Yamato Nadeshikos, but she's better than:

>Yagyuu
>Hibari
>Yomi
>Mirai
>Yozakura
>Minori
>Murasaki
>Emu
>Marvelous' pets
>THAT FUCKING BABU
Off the top of my head anyway.

Stop pretending to hate her just so I can have an excuse to post her.

But that's the best reason.

Underrated, also the only actual vidya post here

I'd rather no see hate at all.

lol

Fair.
