This has got to be one of the hardest games of all time. The xbla versions of 1 and 2 are both faithful to the original and the updated graphics (optional) are cool also.
I wonder, though, if this game is just Irem's Metal Gear Rising, and just a silly extras game made for the 360? Maybe there'll be another for PS3 twice as great! But who knows... :S
One of the features is youcan press 'y' andyou will be able to switch between 3D high res, and 2D low res,and you can even play the proper original without widescreen... it's actually really fun, and just as frustrating as the originals... lol check itout, you'll be pleasantly surprised!
I love R-Type games (although in general I suck at them), can't wait for this one. Had the original on my Spectrum all those years ago. Also loved R-Type Delta on PSX and R-Type Final on PS2. I hope this is out this wednesday.
i hate the word shmup it sounds dirty... or like some kinda sea food eather way just call it a shoot em up or at the least shooter your makin these games look bad!
always preferred darius twin, super r type was good tho

I'd buy a 360 just for this game.

Great memories of playing this on Sega Master System. I wonder if R-Type 1 has the hidden stage.

I wish they could make new titles instead of those expensive remakes.... on second thought bionic commando was awesome and it was only 800 MS points

They want 1200 MS points for this crap? I thought it was a better looking version of R-Type. Crap the PS1 version looks better than this.

This game looks fucking awful.
Really disappointed with the 'enhanced' graphics and whats with the stupid 2.5D mode? It doesnt add anything to the gameplay so why include it?
Wish the devs had spent more time making the gfx look acceptable, rather than adding shitty gimmicks.
I will be sticking with the original R-type on my pc-engine.

the tilt is indeed rubbish - but it's optional.
The same visuals can be shown purely side on, and it's great. R-TYPE IN HI-DEF! my hdtv has waited long for it.

See that's my other point, the graphics look cartoony. R-type was a badass game, not some cartoon.
Would I really have spent a large portion of my youth on R-type if it looked like that? Definitely not.
Mind you I'll still download the demo...

this r type is so cool. but not as good as r type delta and final.
