It is strange that I find the so called "Hard Mode" is not that hard...

I don't think I can chalk this up to me being a veteran at these series since I played SRW MX, which was the HARDEST SRW game that I have played in the past, followed by the SRW Z series on the PSP.

Those games had ZERO English localizations and believe it or not, the language barrier was the EASIEST PART of those games.

I still remember back then, that the enemies and bosses were MUCH TOUGHER than what I had to deal with in the most recently released SRW games...

They really didn't make games like they did in the 90s anymore...
...
But I do wish I had the "skip cinematics" option in the much older iterations of the SRW games back then...
