Definitely a HD upgrade, and with a few other upgrades tossed in as well I see; more ships to play as and to fight as well? Sweet.
I remember playing a demo of this on the classic PSX. Good job guys. Looks a hell of alot better, and no loss in gaming quality. Takes me back; when games were more about the quality of gameplay, than graphics-centered. Then again, this was also an awesome arcade game anyhow on it's own (and these never get old).
@Outlander999 please avoid confusions: PC is Personal Computer, and WC is Windows Computer - you can have a PC without ms-windows, like i have! and it is still a PC! :)
Oh men, i really LOVE this game! I still have the only 2 games they released from this series for the PS1. The first is this one, an the other one is called "Raycrisis: Series Termination", which is an awesome follow-up too with added ships and weapons. Hope they can make a "Thunder Force V" or "Einhander" remake too, which i also happen to have. :)
I used to play this game when I was younger. It was very cool and fun back then. Maybe this HD version will remind the good ol days. YAY for Xbox arcade!
JUST A REMINDER: RayStorm HD does not have Stage Select. It can only be unlocked if you have a Japanese version. US version had their's removed by Taito because 13 Planes caught a virus, making it impossible to complete.
mmm the memories i only played the demo 13 years ago but these 2 d scrollers are epic. yesterday i picked up raiden fighter aces from game stop after playing Raiden 4 for the priceof $ 15. I seen a same plane from Raiden fighter aces.
The difficulty for RayStorm doesn't change. The PSone version of RayStorm of the US version was localizedly murdered by high difficulties. RayStorm HD is actually the port of the original US version. What more can I say?
Eh...snore. I've already seen Raystorm in HD on my PC using the ePSXe emulator. It looks pretty much like this. I'll play it for free instead of buying a 360. That's a better price.
Just re-bought the PS1 version, I can't put it down, It is one of the best shooters out there. I havent even looked on the PSN yet to see if the HD version is there, they better release it in outside of Japan. xD
I hope this comes out on PC ): Just broke out my old raystorm CD and recorded vids to put up here, then searched for others and discovered an HD version is coming out? This is too good to be true.
The first one Galactic Attack is still better...

It's out in the US and sadly, many of the achievements are fake thanks to 13 ships. Stage Select cannot be unlocked either. It's true.
