Which shooter do you 1-credit?

[MasterKiller]

Mars Matrix
DoDonpachi
G. Darius

....are the ones I've 1CC'ed so far. Took me a while to exploit their weaknesses, but I did it.

 

[Verythrax]

Raiden.

Me alone had paid enough on that to py all the development invstment, I think.

 

[Vincere]

Mars Matrix

When I read some of you 1cced Gunbird 2, I hardly could believe it, but this time I need pics, digital prints and lying test to believe it. This game's so fucking insane it's hardly barable. From the 4th level it become so crazy it's not fun anymore.

I'm with you on that one. That game is too insane.

The only Shooter I can 1 credit is Raiden DX (my fav shooter of all time) Mission Charilie, actually technically I 1 life Raiden DX coz If you lose a single life you can't get a high score which means no point in using the rest of the lives. It's better to just die and start over again.

[J0e Musashi]

G.Darius is the only one I can 1cc. I can almost 1 life R-Type Delta. I don't know if Super Ghouls 'n' Ghosts for Sega MD is considered a true shooter, but back in the day I could 1 life it.
I'm just getting back into shooters in a really big way following 14 years of playing mainly fighters, which due to lack of human-player competition I am sadly giving up on.
Lately I am putting lots of time into:

Aero Fighters 2 (2nd stage on first life)
Blazing Star (2nd stage)
Metal Slug 2 (3rd stage)
Metal Slug X (3rd stage)
Metal Slug 3 (3rd stage)
Prehistoric Isle 2 (2nd stage)
Shock Troopers (3rd stage)

Not to great so far, but hey I gots plenty of time to learn.

Hey, I followed the same path weeks ago and I'm glad I did it, just throw a glimpse to every shooting gem, It's the eldorado.

 

[galvatron]

1-credit:
Cannon Spike
Cyberlip
forgotten worlds (on hard)

1-life:
Contra
Contra: Hard Corps (Ray and Sheena on every path, browny on monkey ending path)
Contra: Shattered Soldier (s-rank)
Metal Slug


I'm not too great at the spaceship stuff, but I do enjoy it.

 

[MNK]

Blazing Star, MVS difficulty
Gigawing Dreamcast
In the Hunt Playstation
Last Resort (first loop only), MVS difficulty no miss

I can now add Metal Slug MVS difficulty to that list . I've also put some serious effort into Last Resort and my best run got me very close (right before the boss on 2-5 ) but usually I end up getting gameover on 2-3. That stage is the hardest in the whole game imo. Probably won't touch this one for quite a while..

 

[abasuto]

Greatest achievements....

Last Resort (AES)
R-Type (TG-16)
Viewpoint (Neo CD)
MS3 (XBox)
MSX ( evil rom )
MS4 ( AES)
Psychosis (TG-16) ~ I found the final stage to this game to be the hardest level of any shooter I've ever played*

EDIT *~hardest that I've managed to complete that is.

 

[Arcademan]

I've done a few however the two longest I've done on a single credit are 1942 and 1943: The Battle of Midway.

The hardest one I've done was Psycho Soldier and believe me...that isn't the easiest thing to do since the final boss will suck down all your lives.

 

[northernsoul]

Metal Slug 1, Truxton, Silpheed, R-Type Delta and Gradius III are the only ones i can think of. Sadly as i age my eye to hand cordination is getting worse. I 1cc these games along time ago and i'm sure i could not do them now.

 

[Gaston]

Nemesis III rocks

game I dig from a nostalgic POV is Nemesis III. By that I don't mean the shitty Gradius III game, but the original MSX game. Apart from being an awesome shooter, this game had a storyline and some RPG elements in there! You could dive into enemy pits that you cleared to see if it was holding a special weapon or something. And by special I mean BFBeams of destruction! You also had to find a gun that had only one shot and with it you had to clear the final stage...I'm in tears here man!! Did this one in ONE sitting after a year of practise or so...

Special Mention;
-pretty much ALL the PC Engine shooters
-Ikuraga
-R-Type Delta and R-Type Delta (those were fun!)
-Definitely Salamander for its insane difficulty and Gradius V on PS2, try finishing those on 1credit. NFWay!

 

[Superfamifreak]

1cc:

Area 88 - SFC
Contra Spirits - Easy to Hard all the way through - SFC
Darius Twin - SFC
Rock On - PCE
Cotton - PCE
Sonic Wings 3 - 2 player MVS

Probably a couple more but I can't remember them off the top of my head.

 

[Vincere]

Ok, back from the grave topic.

As I 1cced R-Type Leo, I wanted to play another game and chose the not-so-liked Gekirindan. When I finished one game, the motto "One 1cc never comes alone" was always true. So I beat Gekirindan in 2 days. I'm quite happy and so here's an update of my 1cc list. Just compare it to my first post.


R-Type Final
Super R-Type
R-Type Leo
Battle Bakraid
Storm Blade
Metal Slug
Cotton 100%
Phalanx
Gekirindan
Psyvariar

1 Life - 19XX (Capcom Arcade)

1 credit - 1943 (Arcade), but got to final boss Yamato only

 

[roker]

never

although I've come really close with more than a few games

I think I may have 1cc'd Contra back in the day

but I probably input the famous code first (can't remember)

 

[Shibusawa]

Just Alpha Mission II. Both loops though

 

[meanbean]

It's been a while but I have completed 1 credit on Gates of Thunder, Ordyne, Blazing Lasers, Super Star Soldier and 19XX. I am totally out of practice now so I would probably not come close to repeating this any time soon.

 

[ray_7]

i one-credited ikaruga once, and i was so excited.

those crazy videos definitely improved my gameplay.

 

[jpj]

ikaruga
radiant silvergun (stage 2 route)
