Destroy the core!
Great addition for me, as it's the only Gradius I haven't played besides Gradius V and it looks really nice, both technically and gameplay wise.

I'm on Stage 8 and this Level is damn hard...or absolutely unfair with no powerups.
I think there are 9 Levels in the game.


EDIT:
finished the game and the 8th stage is the last one.
The arcade version has 7 stages. Konami added one bonus stage to the PCE version...the 6th one, if i remember correctly (the level with the flying/jumping lionstatues)

This doesnŽt look nearly as frustrating as Lords of Thunder. Maybe IŽll download.
