Which reminds me: When I cleared R-Type's second loop, the first three stages either weren't that much tougher than they first were, or beating the game wasn't sufficient experience to beat their second loop forms. Stage 4 seemed quite a bit harder. And then the boss of stage 5 was a sticking point.

I haven't played R-Type's second loop in a while, though, so I'd probably be out of practice with it.


I don't like games that are fun.
