Post by philipofmacedon »

I don't know if everyone was seen this already. I wish I could play Ikaruga and tetris like that.

Yeah I already saw all those albeit the DDR one. They didnt show any Beatmania IIDX videos which is sad cause there are some skilled players playing that game.

The Ikaruga one is still impressive, as is the SF3 one!

That DDR one is pretty scary. Man I don't think I could move my feet that fast.

For some reason that video kind of reminded me of that recent funny South Park episode where Stan and Kyle tried to master Guitar Hero. It kind of poked fun at how seriously some people take that game. Kind of like the World of Warcraft episode.

That Ikaruga video is damn awesome. I love the level of execution. Its awesome that sometimes what he is doing isn't actually that hard, its just pure memorization and execution of simple repeated motions at exactly the right time. Its like the god damn N.E. Patriots!

I'm always amazed at seeing skilled players play games like that. A lot of 2-d shmups seem insanely difficult to me. I love the genre, but I suck at most them(pretty good at rail shooters though).

That Ikaruga video is similar to some Megaman X videos I've seen online where the player plays through TWO different Megaman X games at the same time using one controller input for both games.

It's insane what some gamers can do

I love when people post videos like this.
