Classic Game Room HD - RAIDEN FIGHTERS ACES review

Classic Game Room HD reviews RAIDEN FIGHTERS ACES for Xbox 360! Three SHMUPS on one game disc, Raiden Fighters Aces delivers the space ship shooting goodness with mountains of gameplay, awesome presentation and seizure enducing beats. Choose from dozens of space ships / airplanes in this SHMUP where instant power ups and mayhem are the name of the game, but beware, bullet hell shooter madeness awaits you in Raiden Fighters Aces and fancy weapons alone won't keep you alive. Choose a fast ship or slow ship, heavily armed and chunky or quick and nimble. There's a huge variety of aircraft and weapon diversification, enough to keep any vertical scrolling shooter fan happy with hours of gameplay across three fairly similar games. This CGR review of Raiden Fighters Aces has gameplay from Xbox 360 showing Raiden Fighters Aces being played in HD. Raiden Fighters Aces has 2 player co-op video game play and Achievement Points. For those of us who complain about a lack of awesome Shoot 'em ups being released in the West, Raiden Fighters Aces delivers the goods.

Dear FPS genre,

Hurry up and die, please.

Thank You.

The graphics are wonderful, they didn't need to redo the graphics in all 3 games. The Raiden series is classic! Also, the games can't be played wide-screen because it's imported from the arcades... If you have a HD T.V. there's an option to put it FULL-SCREEN, but you've got to tilt your T.V. to the side (like in the arcades). I guess the shmup genre isn't for everyone. I love 'em! Raiden IV, Mushihimesama Futari, Deathsmiles, Triggerheart, Xevious, etc... All AWESOME!

Does anyone have a firm release date for the UK?

There's another use for your xbox 360!!! Turn it into an arcade machine!!!

Instead of praising Mohammad (from Qatar) for donating games, we should be wondering why the hell he never donated a TURBOGRAFX 16/PC-ENGINE?

@123doomdoom

This is truth.

@Broyale26 doesnt it piss you off when people announce the shooter of the year award and you expect it to be a shmup but its an FPS. SHOOTERS ARE NOT FPS PEOPLE GET IT STRAIGHT!!!

Mark I am pissed off at yyou because you didn't mention Trubo Grafx/Pc Engine as aclassic shmup system. The 2nd best system for shumps after the saturn.
