Well, I guess the title speaks for itself. I beat Ghost Pilots again, only this time on my PC. Hence the nice screenies.  I guess we all know who this is supposed to be... (this appears right before the last level, which looks just like the other levels. :/      Everyone drinks when reminiscing about war stories   The war is finally over... I kinda liked Ghost Pilots. It had good animation for its time, and most of the soundtrack really got me into a war kinda mood. There wasn't an AST or alternate music on the NGCD for this game was there?

Drinking to celebrate rocks... hell, I celebrate the creation of alcoholic beverages by ummm.... drinking beer  Anyways, I can remember the first post you made about completing the game, well done on finishing it again and thanks for the pics - I don't think I have the patience to go the whole way through it in one go at the moment, so it is nice to see the ending. How long does it take to finish it in total? Kaz

It was much longer than I anticipated. Especially for a shooter.
I would see some crazy looking boss, or something new would happen (You would see a silhoutte of the grim reaper on the weapons selection screen) and think to myself, I must be close to the last level. But, I wasn't...
GP definetely has over 15 levels. And they keep recycling the music. I stated in my original post it was six hours, but I guess that was a bit of an overstatement. Probably about 2 1/2 or three hours is more like it. (Especially if you are using save states with the bosses.)
On a different note, I recently played Blazing Star, and I must say, I was completely amazed that it was entirely done on the Neo Geo, especially that second level that looks 3D.

I might go back and play Gjost Pilots again on a rainy day or something. But yeah, Blazing Star is awesome... these days I think it is probably the joint best shooter on the Neo Geo, along with Pulstar.

Okay......I think now it´s Time for me to get beaten up.........but....I have never played Blazing Star!!!!  I'll let seiryu handle the beating but as far the game goes Blazing Star is the sequel to Pulstar. It has more characters, better graphics and is noteably easier then Pulstar. Check it out at Kaz's site
