Hadn't really played this game since I got the 1CC, was able to de-rust it a lot faster than I thought and got through the entire set at one night. My original 1CC was on the World version where the game is "only" 5 stages long, this version makes you do all 7 stages (i.e. your route choice doesn't matter on stages 2 and 4 because you end up having to play the other routes anyway), which pads the game out a little too much! Anyway I got a new 1CC on this version at 2:20:21, was going to make a highlight of that to add to the 1CCBBH collection as an alternate clear but I'll just leave it in this VOD for now I guess.

Another console shmup Id never played before but wanted to check out. It was an interesting experience for sure, of course theres things you gotta learn through trial and error but thats par for the course with shmups. I didnt like how terrible some of the weapons felt, but difficulty-wise it was pretty manageable even on Hard once you learn how to get all the hidden 1-ups. And of course the cutscenes were entertaining.
Apparently the second game is a platformer... will I play it? Maybe, who knowssss Sega CD RetroAchievements - Keio Flying Squadron [03-19-2026 stream]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/YY0L4ral37E/mqdefault.jpg)



![Push To [Not] Reject - Lets Talk About 1992 Arcade Games
Before we start officially covering games released in 1992, as is tradition I like to start by flipping the script and talking for a bit about games that WERE popular in 1992, or at least have attained a newfound legacy in the time since they were released. Much talk (and even some playing) of Street Fighter 2 Champion Edition, and the bootleg rom hacks that became prevalent, and Mortal Kombat! And a buncha other games too. Concluding at the end with a 1CC attempt on Total Carnage because I felt like i hadnt played it on stream in a while, and this was the perfect excuse to bust out that long-ass game. Howd it go? Eh...

When this Genesis shmup came out ~35 years ago, I got baited by all the good reviews the game got in magazines, saying it was the most amazing game ever. I ended up renting it, and... I didnt even get past stage 2. It was more difficult than I expected, and having to do those checkpoints over and over without any sense of progress was incredibly frustrating. It was a wasted rental for me.
But I certainly feel like Im better at shmups now than I was 35 years ago! Am I up to the Gaiares (Guy-Are-Us) challenge?!
Also yes I left some of the prestream in because it made me laugh. Sorry, Jamie Bunker Genesis RetroAchievements - Gaiares [06-11-2026 stream]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/_Ydz8itqidw/mqdefault.jpg)
