in level five, I can t go diagonal because the tank and the truck block the way. I 'd have to destroy them which takes too much time. but I think there is a way by destroying the second vehicle (the troop truck) it's kinda weird, but if I stay in the right side, the scrolling get messed up, the tank after is budged with distored elements, something very weird. and the boss after is completely messed up. of course I can beat it but the graphics are completly messed up. It's a very weird thing, but in the cartridge version I remember I had this kind of bug. so I replace myself in thge middle. yeat, when I arrived to that point, thins time, there arent a single enemi, nobody had appeard yet. was I too fast? were they having lunch ? dunno. ^^ I ll try to manipulate luck as you say. thanks

hi thanx for choosing lagoon it brings back memories 1 what I can tell you is to avoid to turn too much. as you dont have diagonal moves. 2 I wonder if killing little enemies is useful. you can kill boss without taking damages and they give a lot of exp, so I think you don't need to kill the little foes. well good luck and courage. with all those labyrinths, it wont be easy.

Hi !! This is the beginning of my spiderman vs x-men time attack : I ve done only the spider man "training" stage : well I have to catch all the bombs, and take the exit. I got hit in order to save time. that's all I can say for now. any remarks and comments will be gladfully welcomes ! I add as bonus, gambit's stage one, but it's got a lot of flaws. don't mind it since, I ve got to begin with spider man true stage #1 first. gambit is a kinda bonus for those who watch my movie ^^ here : spiderman and the xmen stage 0

well I was a littl laxist I guess. now I made a new run where I cut every angle when possible. thanx for your advices : level 1, true, I corrected that mistake level 4 : also true. now I go straght to the bridge and dont take the other bomb level 5 : I corrected that mistake and move left diagonnaly only. about the weapon, the others have more reach but are 2-3 times weakers, and It take something like 15 sec more too kill the boss. the rocket launcher is far much stronger that any other weapon. I finally found where I can get rid of the bombs level 6 there's nothing I can do with the elevator. It move by itself, I can't speed up it, and whe I disembark, I move left immediatly because I need to take the power up. thanx to all your remarkes I win something like 15 secs. it's here : mercs run #4

yeah, I think the programmers wanted to do some backgrounded enemies, there are some fishes , who are moving from down uo up; who are invincible. whatever I do, I simply cant touch them, and they were all moving the same way. I concluded that 's because they were meant to be in the background when they go up and are in the frontground when they go down, bet it's not very satisfying? anyway, they are invincible so I cant kill them... bout the music, I don't know, I thought it was ok. well I'll check it . bout the time, yeah I think I could have kill the boss faster, but surprisingly, he wae tougher than in my memories. I should have used my remaining arrow flashes. thank you for the feedback. It was a kind of nostalgic run for me too , hehe.

this is a run for arrow flash. aim : 100% kill here arrow flash is a classic shoot them up . you control a jet which can change into a robot. nothing more to say. it was the first game I owned. so it's like an hommage. I thought I can do a submition but the game is a little boring so I put it there. besides there are some flaws, not obvious but there are. in stage 2b there are some fishes which are invincible. in stage 3b there is a fish which explode only after living the screen. but it was destroyed, huh!

this is my very last run. what's new : 1/ I shot less rocket and wait t they deal their damages. actually it save times because I can shoot only 3 at once. as now I only shoot two at once but when there are multiple aims, I m ready to shoot earlier. It sounds weird but actually I saved a lot of time>>> thanx feitclub, your remark helped me a lot 2/ In stage 6, I have a trick in order to go througt the electricity field : I get hit so that I ve got some invincibility and am able to get throught. I don t have to wait in front of the first and third barrier. 3/ I dont use the flame burner in stage 2, too weak against the boss, I use the rifle and at the beginning of the stage, I kill only one jeep. 4/ I pick less M bomb because the time I m blocked after using them is too long. I use M bomb for invincibility mainly. In stage 5 I had to use them only once. Against the train-boss they are ineffective because the target must be above the merc. Stage 5 boss is on his right... I also use more M bomb against mid boss. 5/ while runnig I kill if only necessary. I lost less time changing direction and ran more straight. 6/ in stage 2, I take more hits with the jeep so that, when I have to get rid of it in front of the 2nd tank, It blows up faster. you can take it here I hope you will enjoy it. I will be happy to receive your remarks and comments.

well, I know It would be interesting to do a 3 player run with mame but as I m not very experienced and giventhat it will be a real headache to control 3 players at once, I postponed it. But yeah It sticks in my mind.. feitclub > right I justy discovered that the some damages cancelled previous hits, well, i m back in the gym.....

though you ain't see it, actually, I cared a lot about the shots and about shooting just what's needeed. about the rocket launcher it's single shot I just shot what's needed. My shots always hit someone or sometthing. the game registers every hits and each shots deals a constant amount of damages. when I shot and aim nothing, it's because I have nothing to do when I m alone with no enemies to kill ex : in the escavators or on some mobile platforms, waiting. or when the boss Is already killed. the rifle is a 3 lines shot, so I have to move very fast in order to change it into multiple way shots and hit more people than I usually could. and when I shoot, I always shot 3 lines of bullets. that's the way the rifle gun is.

this is my new attemps for mercs I take on account every things you told me. what's new : I used the cheat code to enable hardest mode (enemies as fast as player, bullets faster, boss tougher) I used every vehicules and M bomb to gain time and/or invincibility I purposely get hit while in vehicule in order too optimize my vehicule's damages or in order to gain time (ex: stage 2) tell me what you think ^^ take it here

feitclub >> yeah in my new movie, I m using the megacrash bombs becaus of all the advantages you list. It's getting much much better. about the cps1 version. well I played the genesis version becaus of memories but thats trus the original cps1 version looks much much better... hmm lets have a look.... EDIT well with 3 players, the arcade version is amazing unfortunately I dont know anybody around me who may help playing. it a pity as that version is much much prettier. may be I can play three player in the same time abusing the slow mode.... arg it will be a big headache... I must say that it's easier too. the genesis version thought it's far less pretty, is a better challenge as enemies are tougher.

yes that game was a nightmare. the juggernaut was beatable. you had to cut the ropes and let the weights fall on his head and when you had time you had to give him several punch. gambit levels were absolutely terrifics and frustrating. in fact you had to learn the whole stage and to know exactly where all opponents, traps and plateform were.. absolutely insane

well the play is not very impressive but is good nevertheless. I dont think you can do impressive stuff with shinobi. The actions where just the ones needed. the story and the game are so good that I watch it in a row without getting bored. i vote yes.

hi. well, this is one of the hardest SNES game I ever played. the musics are definitly greats and the challenge in very interestings I think. it's a action plateform games where you play spiderman, cyclops, storm, gambit and wolverine in arcade park. everyone has got his own missions. missions are adapted to one's power. there are also a lot of bad guys : apocalypse, rhino, sentinels, black king, carnage, juggernaut. and some levels are quite impressive : just try gambit's. does someone want to try it ?

well once you're used to the bullets trajectories it's not that hard. I just have to be carefull with some bosses who reacts oddly depending on where I am and shoot mores or less projectiles. about the boss, as long as their heath doesn't show, there no use shooting them. I shoot them because I had nothing to do. For the helico, well it wasnt on purpose. I didn't shoot without any real explanation. the M-bonus are the megacrash bombs and you just help me to discover something. I never realize that it can slow my race because of the points it gives. well I guess I d better avoid them. thanx for that comments. yes the rocket launcher is by far the strongest weapon and there are places where I had to kill the mini boss first, it was in stages 3 5 6. Edit : Well i think there is a lot of improvement I can do. I plan doing another movie. If someone has got other comments, please tell me, I think it may help me a lot.
