The bottom line is this - Raiden IV is a great game. Any shmup fan needs to pick this up. And at $40 it's not going to put much of a dent in your wallet. While Raiden IV does depart from the classical Raiden formula, it is indeed worthy of the Raiden moniker.
Carlos writes "Not so long ago we brought you our thoughts on the last set of backwards compatible titles to arrive on Xbox One as Microsoft closed in on the 400 Xbox backwards compatible games figure. This week has seen another fresh batch of games brought back, which now pushes that number up and over the four century mark. But, the big question is this - are they worth heading back to or should they be left in the past?"
Who cares if they're worth the return? They're just adding games. That's what they do and it's admirable.
