Topic: Raiden V: Director's Cut Coming to PS4 & Steam

[VladCT]

And so the XBONE gets shafted yet again. :V

BTW, to correct a little misinformation on the trailer: AFAIK from the original version the stages are determined strictly on a performance basis; i.e. you get on the higher-ranked stages the better you score, up to rank A on stage 2 and rank S on all the following stages.

So... the Xbox One got... XBONED!!!!!    Someone please sucker punch me for that lame pun.

Anyways, will check this one out.  Played some Raiden IV on the PS3 and it's a fun game.

Someone please sucker punch me for that lame pun.

Why bother? Microshaft did it to themselves when the system's strict security gimmicks were first announced. If anything they well deserve the sucker punching. And it looks like they're still receiving it.

I've only ever played Raiden on the arcade emulator. It is quite the ride

Yay. Raiden is definitely in my top 3 favourite shooter franchises.

Soon, Soon.

But does it have any remixes of Gallantry?

Meh, for a system I don't own (but I do have Steam, but that's not a physical copy, otherwise I would've picked up the UM King of Fighters games as well, 98 and 02, the latter better balanced than the PS2 copy I have, original print, not update due to $$$$$$ price). I like the idea Raiden is still going, didn't really need a storyline (there's the bad guys, they did some bad shit, go blow them up is Raiden's mantra from the past), guess they have to cater to the kiddies spoiled on stories in games.


Keep it simple Moss, blow shit up, get points, grab medals, find the hidden fairy, make sure you get the homing bombs, the end. This game looks just like the last 2, so not sure why it's also not being made for PS3 as well, nothing really looks enhanced. This does remind me though, I need to eventually get Raiden IV off of PSN, I just wish the damned thing would've been released physically.

Raiden 3 on the other hand, what a disaster, half the game felt empty of enemies and enemy fire. Bought it, still own it, felt gypped.
