The end of Xevious is tough. I think I was like an inch away from completing it and I died. I screamed so loud my family thought something happened . I give it a 10/10 on my anger scale for cursing to myself and wanting to snap the brittle 30 year old plastic controller in my hands.
Just posted a score update. That's it for me on this one. That was a perfect on every bonus level and I killed as many of those urchins as I could. On one level I killed over 20 of them and burned through as many lives as I could.
Just bought a copy of Xevious and Star Soldier. Thought I had both those games but I can't find em. I've been playing Xevious on a powerpak, but I prefer completing the games on actual carts when I can.

I'm on Xevious right now. I'm limited on playing time, but committed to completing this one. The other star games I'm not fully committed to just yet. But we'll see.
Made it to the final boss in Starship Hector should have it beat soon hopefully. I've probably played this game for close to 20 hours overall so far. It took me FOREVER to clear the end of that 2nd level consistently.
Was away last week, just started back up on Starship Hector. Now that's a tough game. I would rank it as the toughest game I've played so far this year IMO.
Starship Hector is crazy. I haven't even beaten the 2nd level yet. There's no way to brute force through this game. You gotta have a strategy for every little section I bet.
