This video shows a full run, one credit clear (1CC) through the first loop of Gradius IV using the default (factory) settings. This footage was captured from real PS2 hardware, no emulators or cheats were used!
I'm particularly proud of this run because it contains a recovery at what I consider to be the hardest checkpoint in the game (start of Fortress stage). The final stretch is pretty crazy, it all comes down to my last life and a little bit of luck.
