There's no auto-fire option on the Dreamcast.

This is one of the lamest games I've ever played.

I still "want" to be able to hear the sound effects so I know (ha) what's going on, but I really wish I could turn the voices off.

Haha for a moment I thought you might sit this one out Vyothric. Good work on the all clear. I think mero will be the man to beat on the high score end for this game. Think it might be another arrow flash for the number of 1CCs we get here though.

Took a deep breath and spent a lot of time playing it today to try and complete it so I don't have to come back to it.

I would like to put it out there that I'm thinking about reducing the game time to 15 days with 3 days (max) between games for voting an nominations. I'm finding the game time is really dragging even on games like sonic wings where I put in a lot of playing time.

I just feel that if I have the intention of finishing a game then I'll return to it anyhow, league or not and so far I have no intentions of returning to any of the games we've played.

2 wks is more than enough time to submit a score and I don't feel like anyone is really hammering the games to the deadline as it is. Tell me if I'm wrong.

I need 8 or more votes In favour of a reduced game time.

I vote in favour of course.

I wish I could agree with you, my friend. A couple of weeks ago I would have.
Sure 20 days might seem too much, but maybe people can get too busy to dive head on into the game.

This last weekend has been crazy for me, working nights and such. I haven't even touched the game, only seen a few YT videos.
I do want to play, I just need to manage time in the next days. :lol:

I'd have no problem in reducing it to 15 days or a week, but for a while I vote nay so that I can preserve my window. :roll:

I woudn't be so sure about that :lol:

I havent played this game again yet but I did take a picture of the scores I'd already done. I'm posting my ALL score for now even though it's low, improvements coming soon.

Mero - ROB - 860,090 - 40 - ALL - Load Ran - Story - PS2

Btw the secret charcters I mentioned are Dark Ran, Sprites, Mevious and Memory. I can't remmber how to select them atm but I know the info is out there on the net. My best score is 1.39 million with Dark Ran so if you reckon the secret characters are ok for this tournament then I'll maybe use her again (after I've got a better story mode score first).

I don't mind about hidden characters. Do you have to clear the game to unlock them?

No need, I will definitely have something better soon (I hope)!

And no you don't need to clear the game to play with the secret characters, you just have to do something on the character select screen. I'll try and find the info now.

EDIT:
At the character select screen hilight Load-Ran, press UP four times and press a button to select Sprites or press DOWN four times and press a button to select Memory.
Alternatively, hilight Griffon (the 3-person group) and follow the instructions above to access Mevious (Up) or Dark-Ran (Down).
