R-Type Dimensions R-Type II Stage 6

[AlienLifeForm100]

why in the 3d version of the game r-type 2 the four ships do not disintegrate they just explode

[timmya4000]

clearly died at 0:35

[matrixandraia]

@timmya4000 No, the hitbox on the R9 is basically just the cockpit. As far as I know, there's no way to cheat in R-Type Dimensions (thank god). Got really lucky is more like it. But if I re-recorded every single time I was unhappy about something in a shoot em up then none of my videos would ever go up, because something like that always happens while I'm recording.

[timmya4000]

@matrixandraia looks dubious but i'll take your word for it

[matrixandraia]

@timmya4000 Like I said, there are no cheat codes in Dimensions. Take that as you will.

[Yoshirockdude]

I absolutely FUCKING HATE THIS STAGE! Nice job overall.

[matrixandraia]

@Yoshirockdude It is rough because it is almost all twitch gameplay as opposed to memorization. Yeah, pretty hard in my opinion.

[mmmmmarcus]

LOL that sucks! They help you out, then the blast kills them anyway. That's like that one game, where you beat it, and earth is destroyed.

[Ellisthemechanic]

They should've at least ported this to the PlayStation 2.

[pokemontotodile]

awww the music isnt epic like the snes version i was about to buy it but now im starting to not want it anymore lol x3

[matrixandraia]

@pokemontotodile But this is the original arcade music - it is undeniably epic in its own right.

[pokemontotodile]

i much prefer the original theme better for this stage it was more epic :P

[matrixandraia]

@pokemontotodile I'm missing something here though; this IS the original music for the end of R-Type II. R-Type and R-Type II were arcade games before they were ever ported to any home systems.

[pokemontotodile]

@matrixandraia hmm..you got me there gg bro

[ScorpianViper]

The bydo empire is probaly all like

Bydo Empire: Oh no, why cant i hit him?

R9C Warhead: Hahaha! Whos losin now?

Bydo Empire: Oh no, im gonna cry, let me hit you!

R9C Warhead: No.

[BigBadBoehms]

Excellent gaming!

[MrThunderwing]

Shitting hell, that level looks difficult!

[Guilmonhero]

Okay, I've got to download this game, especially due to the fact you can play with other people.

[SusakeKes]

shmups are not dead :)

[REGIFISHY]

they shortened the note hold at the end In the original it was 2:23 seconds long AND A LOT LOUDER

[MyPasswordisJoshua]

Very nice game. I still remember the Commodore 64 and Amiga Versions :) Argh, where have all the years been :(

[TamuroBros321]

Sorry for 3 comments in one go, but I may think that the yellow ships are other R-9 ships that survived while the Bydo fed off the energy of them. Along with that, once they were free and got out, they lost power and couldn't escape the final explosion; therefore they didn't survive. Only the player (in a "newer" R-9) survived.

[matrixandraia]

...or Irem being dark as usual just decided that they needed to die...

[TamuroBros321]

To the author: I just found out that the codename for this ship is the R-9C War-Head. (Originally it was "Custom'.) Plus, if you compare the original sprites of R-Type with the yellow-canopy R-9 fighters, they are the exact same sprites (with palette change, of course). This means that the trapped R-9s are in fact ships that originally went on the mission before your craft did. (Probably the first R-9C of its kind out there)

[ScorpianViper]

@TamuroBros321 Exactly, So, The Yellow ones were the first, I think this is how they got trapped. one by one, the bydo empire caught it.

[Gamelvl84]

Same thought here, then again, they probably where bydo by then and may just have wanted to die.

[TamuroBros321]

Nice work. You are obviously pro! Do you know how to put it in 3D? It'll look awesome (but may disrupt gameplay for you).

[TamuroBros321]

Never mind about the "3D" question - That's the "Crazy" camera angle that is optional, I just found out also.

[fishthekiller500]

great vid and are those yellow sjhips at the end dumb they all just slammed themselves into the ground

[Dormin87]

Well for someone who has a broken arm, you made this look like a cakewalk! Very well played!

[10191927]

Man, with this and R-Type Command, I hope for more R-Type titles in the near future. With all the HD technology and such, they can make a really awesome R-Type. I hope they make another R-Type Tactics, I love that game.

[TamuroBros321]

To 10191927: So you like the change of pace by the new R-Type Command? (Command was the international name, Tactics was the Japanese name.)

[MattTheSpratt]

No no, Tactics is the UK name as well.

[TamuroBros321]

Oh, thanks Matt. I might just see what I could do.

[saucykobold]

Nice playing.

It's funny how the achievement box pops up in the middle of a firefight.
