Haven't played these since....... the arcades in a different country, I think.

Didn't this version already come out for the Xbox 360 a couple years ago? I'm fairly certain it did...

Anyways, its great that R-Type is getting more love, even if its not a brand new game.

They had an R Type II machine in the little arcade at the Butlins we went to on a school trip. That would be around 25 years ago now... I can't remember if I ever even played it or just watched, due to having limited funds.

Hmmm...I wonder if a similar remake will ever be done for Zero Wing?

Yes, R-Type Dimensions, way back in 2009.

And if so, what are the odds we'll be graced with CATS' famous line again! Of course they'll probably learn their lesson by now.
