Gradius Gaiden Faq
Gradius Gaiden has some of the prettiest graphics of the era. It's like Castlevania: Symphony of the Night in terms of detail.Gonna sound like a contrarian here, but to be honest I don't particularly care for Gaiden's soundtrack. I think it's a huge departure from the sound of the previous games, in a bad way. I am also not fond of Gaiden's use of translucent graphic effects. I've always thought they were a dumb effect and extremely distracting, particularly for example during the high-speed stage boss.
I'll take III's graphics over Gaiden any day. Of course, that's just an opinion.Always seeking netplay fans to play emulated arcade games with. A much better made-for-console Gradius game than V, tbh.Could you expand upon that? I quite like V, so I'm curious to hear why you believe Gaiden is superior.I wouldn't say Gaiden is superior per se, but it definitely feels more like a 'proper' Gradius game than V. Unlike V, it retains the series' trademark variety in stages (every stage is a whole new world with specific challenges) and the iconic Moais, while V lacks both and is by and large a Treasure game flipped to its side.

Gaiden Game: The aptly-named Gradius Gaiden, though if you're looking for a real Gaiden Game, check out the MSX Gradius series (Nemesis 2, Salamander and Nemesis 3), which has a completely different and more detailed plot from the main series, and introduces several features not seen in future games, save for a remake of Nemesis 2 called. Mar 30, 2011 What can I say? It's Gradius, and awesome as always, chronologically somewhere between Gradius III and IV. Played on normal difficulty, using Falchion β as my ship with the ever so handy auto-aim.
V is a good game, but it's not quite as successful as an entry in the Gradius series.One thing about V I like is that the stage layout and such changes, depending on the weapon loadout you choose, so it adds variety and replay value. 'Playing a shmup with an analog stick is like trying to fill out the New York Times crossword with a can of spray paint.' - Topher Cantler. RSG doesn't loop forever though.
You can't even tell a Gradius game 'alright, I wanna stop playing after loop '.A long playtime is annoying even in a game that actually ends after that playtime.
