R-Type for MSX1

R-Type cartridge supports both MSX1 and MSX2 with different graphics.
sadly, only MSX1 dump exists.(simpler graphics)

everything is pretty clean and colorful.
and much easier than arcade or other ports.

@Arkhandroid Yeah, making fun of one's english is definitely a good argument in discussion. Besides, where did I wrote it was superior? I just wrote it is decent. The game is playable and that's what counts the most, my friend.

@Airiin14 "in" the internet? ,man I wish I was in it instead of ON it.

But, if you think those cracklyblips actually count as sfx, I feel sorry for you. I also feel sorry for you for feeling obligated to correct the internets

AFAIGAF, there are no sound effects in the game. Just very loud SID music that occasionally has weird static percussion. If the C64 is all OMG SUPERIOR because of the SID, how come the sfx+music blend was totally screwed up?

and were not friends so stop calling me one

@Arkhandroid They suck - it's true. But they are present in the game. You wrote that port has no sound effects at all, which wasn't true. Somebody in the internet was wrong, so I was obliged to clear it. That's all, my friend.

@Airiin14 Allow me to rephrase since you missed the sarcasm and disdain of my post:

The sound effects suck so bad and were neglected to the point where the SID's music drowns them out and you barely hear anything except little clickypops and nonsense, as opposed to all of the good versions of the game in which the sound effects and music blend nicely.

IE: R-Type on PC Engine.

PS: Don't PM me on YouTube to say "BETTER RESEARCH BEFORE YOU POST, MY FRIEND".

@Arkhandroid What?? I don't know what version you have played or with which port you're mistaking it, but of course it has sound effects.

@Airiin14

C64 rtype has no sound effects.  That alone makes it completely worthless.

This music reminded me why i always listened to the stereo while playing games.

[Airiin14]

@UltimateTr0ll You're wrong. Amiga and C=64 also have pretty decent conversions.

Didn't they MSX cartridge have a special sound chip in there, like the Konami games ? Full FM synthesiser effects beckon ?

I love msx still, despite it's limitations, they made really good games for this computer. But Salamander and Nemesis are way better than R-type..
