I love the part near the middle where one ship is using a blue shield, the other is using a red shield, and he's constantly manouevering them so that one ship protects the other from the corresponding lasers... then once it does its job it doubles back behind the other one for protection when the next wave of the opposite type is about to hit it. That guy has amazing independant two-handed coordination AND he has the whole game memorized (level layout and enemy patterns). That's quite impressive. Is it a waste of time? Probably... but it's still impressive.
  • andmoo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Truely frightening skills on show there, I'll just look over at my copy of Ikaruga for the GC and cry now.
  • Observer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This is dumb. He had shields on the whole time.

  • graphicNature, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I wonder how much cash he's put into that machine to be that good.
  • wilsonics, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Those japanese kids can do anything. I've been to tokyo, and i've seen some wacked out people in some arcades there. I emplore you, stay away from the DDR kids in Tokyo, they'll smoke you.
  • uptown, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Just imagine what he could do after the demo stops & he throws in a few quarters! :)

  • kimuuu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Nuts. I can't even get past like, the 3rd level using both hands for one player. LOL
  • vileS, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Jesus Christ.

  • Neotribal, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Yeah, this guy is a maniac... "Respek!"
  • illfollowyou, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0all i can say is... WOW
  • ArdentRogue, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Alright, that was pretty cool. That guys has played a ton of Ikaruga, which is a brutal game.
  • bhaugh, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This is amazing. Like others have said, this game is prety intense on its own -- this guy has some crazy right-brain/left-brain stuff going on!

    Check out this Wikipedia article as a jumping-off point for brain bilateralism: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corpus_callosum (The corpus callosum is the link between your brain hemispheres--the SLI Connector of Justice, if you will.)
  • prophetnd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0MAAAD respect, ikaruga is hard enough using two hands.i think he dies twice at the boss, regardless his kung fu is strong
  • 4ZN-1NV4ZN, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0goddaaamn that was awxome
  • Klowner, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Pretty sweet, never seen the game though, it looks a little bit like Chromium http://www.reptilelabour.com/software/chromium/ but ten times more intense.
  • litre_cola, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Ikaruga was one of the most difficult games I've ever played (I rented it for my GC). I bow down to this gamer's skills.
  • warmonger48, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The boys has some mad crazy sick skills, but if you're putting enough time in to get that good at a game with two hands: please get out and do something productive with your skills!
  • cerulean47, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Bah. Give me Robotron any day ;)
  • fochrist1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Everything was all good and then he started the second part of the game. I would like to see the uncompressed version of that video.
  • number8888, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Ikaruga is a damn hard game so that is very impressive. Probably a dupe, but digg anyway.
