hansolo77 Posted October 3, 2013 Author Share Posted October 3, 2013 Holy crap! This game is really difficult! At least for me, I'm sure somebody will bust it.Score: 27,200Initials: (n/a)If you wait long enough on the demo screens, it will show a high score table with names. My score wasn't high enough even for last place. So I'm sure one of you guys will definitely bust this score and actually have an opportunity to post initials. This is just my first try at this game, and it's insane!Updated OP, DB, RSS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hansolo77 Posted October 11, 2013 Author Share Posted October 11, 2013 The console version for a lot of these games is much easier. You get more lives, they're not as difficult, etc. I was playing shinobi on the nes a few days ago, and they actually give you a HEALTH BAR that goes down as you get hit, rather than insta-death. RType is one of those games better suited for the console I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DazzleHP Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 RType is one of those games better suited for the console I think.i'm gonna have to disagree with you there squire. R-Type is one of them very few games that rewards knowledge - i like that! To become good you need knowledge! R-Type is brutal, but it is is also very rewarding if you can reape It's also much better in arcade and i've played em all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hansolo77 Posted October 18, 2013 Author Share Posted October 18, 2013 I know right? I think the difficulty is that it's side scrolling, and you have to watch out for walls. Vertical shooters don't really have walls, and they seem easier to me, I dunno. Good score though! Updated OP, DB, RSS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExedExes Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 I've played Super R-Type enough to possibly know a thing or two about this -- that yellow weapon is nice for Stage 2, but the Stage 4 boss I'll have to learn a little bit more.ExedExes - 190,700 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mame Offender Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 OMG, I have spent hours and hours on R Type back in the day!! What a sweet side scroller.But let`s not talk up it`s difficulty too much here. There aren`t that many bullets coming at you AND you have pod that attaches to the front or back of your ship that deflects some of the projectiles for you. To keep decent control of your ship, I only pick up one speed item. I find the ship maneuvers too quickly when you pick up two or more.219,300 v 0.122Dip switch settings used ----------------------------------->>> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
