To be frank, I thought that Infinite Burst is a ripoff! It's an expansion release of the original Bullet Soul. Same stage assets, same enemy assets, same characters. That's not a good look at all! Cost-wise it's a better deal to buy any Live Wire ports than buying both of the separated Bullet Soul releases! It's basically DFK, but separate! In the context of the old Xbox 360 release, it's pretty much fine, but CAVE combined both the vanilla and Ketsuipachi DFK into one for the PC version, or at least that's what I know. At least they could have the heart to match the price with DFK, around 2500 Yen! Both Bullet Souls are 4000 Yen in total!!!

It's fun, but since it's a pretty pricey separate release, it tastes pretty bitter in the mouth.

But let's start discussing what's unique in this mode. The most obvious one is the new Burst gauge, which is the Hyper mode. When it's full, you can fill it by collecting the coins and keep shooting? You'll momentarily upgrade your shots. Not original but considering the bullets still get cancelled when the shooter is destroyed, it's pretty nice to have.

The lives also get changed into shields. Doesn't mean much, though as stage progresses the maximum get increased. You'll also be given shield recoveries, which makes it more intuitive to extend instead of actually gaining extends via scoring. Not too shabby.

The mode only has 1 loop (no pun intended). Pretty nice, if you ask me. I'm not a fan of multi-loops. This also means you can access the TLB faster. I'm not sure if you still need to no continue to access it, though.

The stage design also gets rearranged, for better or for worse. I'll explain it in the CC commentary.

One final important note: No bombs! Shield lets you make more mistakes, but your only offensive resource is the burst gauge. Please take this in mind especially when fighting the TLB!

It's pretty fun and the TLB is challenging considering the resources. But uh... the Infinite Burst is pricey for its nature. You may not want to pay 2000 Yen to play a mode where you can go Hyper. No, new ending illustrations won't help! As you see in the thumbnail, I think it's Loop only but the ending is not safe for kids.

Speaking of butts, the artist is well known for pr0n works. Do the Japanese allow bare butts for CERO A? It's a... robot butt, but still a butt nonetheless.

This is the Switch port.
