    I'm in the Ikaruga World Rankings

    Apologies for people who read my topic on Rllmuk, it must seem like I am blowing my own trumpet to an absurd entent. I told AllYourBase about this (I bought my GC copy from him) and he suggested I post a topic here to see if anyone could better me.
    Here's my rankings:
    30th (Prototype Mode) (3rd in Britain)
    95th (Arcade Mode) (14th in Britain)

    Can you do better?

    (Word up, mods. You have a no hissy fit guarantee to move this topic if it is in the wrong place, I don't know this forum very well and couldn't decide between here and Online Gaming/Challenges - the latter didn't seem appropriate somehow...)

    So what are your tactics? Go for chains or just stay alive as long as you can? Not familiar with the GC scoring system having only played the DC version. How does it work? Does it limit you to one credit?

        Ah thanks! Some of those guys are better than me

        I go for chains. I think most people do.

          Losing my Ikaruga scores from my memory card due to F-Zero GX throwing a fit at me led to me picking this up again this week. Still only 5.5million as my highest score for the whole game (getting to level 3) with a chain of 81 on Level 1!

          I've watched a video of perfect S++ playing for each level but I still can't convert that into any better than 81 for level one - my best ranking's A++. I was stuck on a chain of 79 on level one for months - the feeling of getting that extra two chains was brilliant!

          I know there are many better players than me but I still love this game - it'll be in my top 10 for a long time.

                haha! Yeah I know what you mean about the feeling of adding a few extra chains. I've been like that with chapter 1 for months! I'm on a 96 chain at the moment, but after watching the appreciate DVD again last night I know that can be bettered!

                  My problem is actually finishing the game. I won't move onto a new level until I have managed an S++ rank. So far I can get that on stages 1-3, but I'm still learning stage 4. I could probably just go for completion rather than high chaining, and get the thing finished, but it doesn't feel right playing Ikaruga in a conventional manner and not chaining loads.

                  Both DaveSS and rjpageuk on these boards are very good Ikaruga players. Far better than me.

                    Fantastic game. My highest score was around 10 million, but I couldnt come anywhere near completing it on one credit. The level 4 boss always took loads of continues off me >_<
