I haven't really played Touhou in years apart from going through the new games for a week or two after release, but I figured I'd open up PCB Extra for funsies. Aaand... I got a no death clear first try? XD Welp, I guess it's like riding a bike.
Captured 8 cards, although I was breaking borders for safety purposes to make sure I cleared, which, uh, didn't end up being a problem after all XD Man, the deathbomb window is bigger than I thought it was... (Granted, I only (death)bombed on spellcards twice; Perfect Bhuddist because I haven't seen it in years and flubbed up the first phase transition, and Charming Siege because sometimes it decides NO HOW ABOUT YOU GET ONE SQUARE CENTIMETER OF SPACE HAVE FUN) To be fair though, most of Ran's cards really aren't hard once you know what you're doing, apart from like... Charming Siege, yes. >_> She's more like training mode for beating Yukari.
The fun part was playing for half a second, going "Why is my inp-OH YEAH CLOSE THE GAME, OPEN IT WITH VSYNC INSTEAD". EoSD and PCB desperately need the vsync patches @.@ It's like half a second of delay otherwise.
Maybe I should like, actually play these games again more??? Granted I really wish I had a CRT if I was going to do that, so they didn't look so dang fuzzy. I stopped playing pretty much right when my CRT died.
