I'm not certain. Possibly a 1cc? There could also be a score requirement, but to be honest I'm not good enough to 1cc the game, so I never looked into it. Just read it on shmups.

Why you so slow post office? I want my Einhander. :evil:

Is it as good as everybody says it is? The anticipation is killing me.

If you play it in 'normal' mode, there is an extra stage to the boss fight than there is in 'easy'. Then in 'hard' mode there is an extra stage to it again. Could that be what you mean?

A real man 1cc's it in Easy, Normal, Hard.

I'm actually not sure how much Einhander is talked up, but yes, it's very good. I doubt you will be disappointed. It's not like most 3D shmups of the era where you can't see what the hell is going on. Everything looks and plays as great as a 2D shooter.

Just had my mind blown away by Soukyugurentai and Battle Garegga. Definitely my top two shumps on the Saturn.

Battle Garegga blows my mind every time I play it. I can't believe how intricate the scoring system is, while remaining very free-flowing. It never feels like there is only one way to do something.

Also love how different the ships are from each other. Gah, just typing this has made me want to boot the game up and try to get past the maddening boss rush.
