<tada> micluses are awesome
<tada> the way they fart out 9 medals and then fart so hard they explode
So this morning, having woken up super-early on a whim (a little before 5 AM), I decided on some pre-sunrise shmupping. Loaded up RFA and decided to play a round of Jet or two. <cough>on normal</cough> <cough>dammit success why did you make a “normal” difficulty level that’s below arcade difficulty</cough>
I’ve had RFA for two months now and since then I’ve been able to confidently trigger the gold medals in Sim 01. Just now I’ve started triggering the turret Micluses in Sim 05. My knowledge of Micluses past Sim 05 is still totally blank, however. I managed to pull off 44 million. I may not be Twiddle or TWD, but I can always break my own personal records.
Also, goddammit Rez HD make my lasers hit the enemies faster so I don’t get shortchanged of points just because I decided to be a little patient and wait for 8 enemies to appear on the screen. Yeah, I play Rez for score, so what? Can’t I have my sensory overload and challenge gamer ways at the same time? I also need to get around to reconnecting my 360 to the intertubes (no I am not getting an overpriced wireless adapter) so I can actually have leaderboards again. I once hit #1 on the weekly leaderboards for Area 4, and I’d like to nail #1 on the overall leaderboards get within the top 30 scores on the overall leaderboards someday.

REZ on score actually is quite fun, until you reach the boss. You get like 50% of your score from boss milking and it’s boooooring and takes aaaages.

Guess not, then.
