I got to the 4th level of Ikaruga this morning!! I pulled an all-nighter, drank a shit ton of monster and with as much strength as I could muster, I fought that 3rd level boss till I fucking beat his spiral of death bitch ass!! I did it with 1 life left no continues left on easy, and proceeded to immediately die on the 4th level after it did the little 'Chapter 4' opening thing... Just came back early from a friend get together.... Was sitting with them and was so excited to tell them about my progress, and this is how it went...
Friend 1. Ben, Ikaruga is a hard game, but very beatable....
Friend 2. Yeah man, we've all beat that game like 20 times on hard and got all the achievements and everything...
Friend 1. Yeah and you've had that game for a couple months now...
Friend 3. You shouldve accidentally beat it by now....
Friend 2. From now on, till you beat that game, you've gotta sit at the girls table. This is a mans table, and you're stripped of that title till you beat that game!
So, I grabbed my jacket, paid for my 1 and only drink and headed home.... All this time I thought I was a shooter guru... guess I was just livin one big lie....
