Gradius Series Ranking and Tier List! Shoot Em' Up Discussion with @KyoKusagani ! There is no Shoot Em' Up (shmup) series more classic and influential than the Gradius series. Konami, in years prior, were a legendary studio and absolutely pushed the genre of shoot em' ups forward in many meaningful ways. Today, I am joined by @KyoKusagani to rank and discuss the Gradius series, as well as related spin off games like Salamander and Parodious. We will go through Gradius 1, Gradius 2, Gradius 3, Salamander/Life Force, Gradius 5, Gradius Gaiden, Gradius 5, Gradius Rebirth, and a few more :-) So you could also consider this video a review of Gradius collection as well! We discuss PCB's, level design, balance, checkpoints, boss fighter, music (ost), graphics, stage design, glitches, and history. These ports appear on tons of consoles like NES, SNES, PS1, PC-98, MSX, PS2, PSP, Wii, and probably a lot more! Fingers crossed for a really solid collection on Switch, PS5/PS5 and Xbox in the future!
