Just like the other 2 Gradius games

This one is just as unfair and unwelcoming to newbies as everyone said. ARGH.

Welcome to Bullet Hell, everyone. Thank God for the SNES version and the difficulty settings that can be changed in the PS2 and PSP versions.

The dragons look cooler, but too hard for my taste. Still prefer SNES.
