Even if you disagreed with my
earlier ramblings that shmup players experience a different sort of
zen in their trials and tribulations than most of us do, you have to admit that the above video -- the final boss in stage 5 of
Mushihimesama Futari -- is the most insane thing ever. Shmup fans insist that nobody has beat this boss without continuing. Warning! This video may cause
unsightly crapping of the pants.
Though I love me a good shmup, I've never been much for the
bullet hell titles, games that focus just a
smidge too much on the wee-hitbox, high-memorization, ultimate dodging super-doom style of gameplay. Still, impressive nonetheless.
Hit the jump for an even crazier video from Mushihimesama Ultra, guaranteed to make your nose bleed.
Also: don't forget, shmup fans:
Radio Allergy (AKA
Radirgy) is supposedly due out on the GameCube next week. I say "supposedly" because it's not listed at GameStop or anywhere else of note except
Amazon and
Wal-Mart. Keep an eye out, it's only twenty bucks. Ah,
frugality!

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
Also, I think I did crap my pants, from shitty resolution.
I almost had a seizure just watching it.

@ ShinAmano
CoTA Magneto is one of your all times? Who were you using?
I mean, he was hard, but if I don't ruin a controller or my day in the process of trying to beat it, it doesn't go into the pantheon of difficulty.

That said, I couldn't beat this game with God on my sofa cheering me on and giving me his super powers.
that would flerking SIC! domination!
Jesus Christ himself would have a hard time w/ the first one.
I wanna play Niero's shmupper!
God forbid we post about the things we find cool or intriguing. Bear in mind that 95% of everything you read on Kotaku and Joystiq are, y'know, lifted from elsewhere too.
We're a gaming blog. That's how we roll. Bitch.
Anyway, the video would've been all the more impressive had it been clear enough to actually see what's going on. What I could make out though, was an utterly insane assload of shots that looked nearly impossible to dodge. I didn't shit myself, but I did raise an eyebrow.
Wow ... you sounded so hardcore just then. I know I'm impressed.
99% of destructoid is nothing more than someone re-spewing digg stories with a few sentences of text to make it seem like an actual "story".
I think you should change the headline at the top of your site to "Unfiltered Digg Stories - Updated Constantly Every Day". That'd be a little bit more descriptive of what this site actually is.
that is insane. however, i heard Contra (sp?) was one of those almost impossibly hard games to beat, also
