Worthplaying.com got their hands on some new screenshots for Atlus' R-Type Command, known in Japan as R-Type Tactics, which is a deviation from the usual shoot 'em up genre into the tactical/RPG genre, giving fans of the franchise a chance to see all the units and enemies up close and personal, in 3D, while also adding 2 player versus mode.
"When you think of classic shoot 'em ups, the top 2 series that likely come to mind are Gradius and R-Type so let's take an in-depth look at both franchises and see which one comes out on top." - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums
This game is a turn-based strategy game with a hexagon field, you move your units according to their stats. This game is by no means a pick up and play game.
The controls are not the issue in this game, the menus are crazy hard to understand and the objectives seem to be missing in action sometimes or disappear too fast for you to read it all.
WorthPlaying writes, "Atlus U.S.A. titles are always hard to find at retail, and is now offering a number of titles from its PSP library as digital download via PlayStationNetwork: Crimson Gem Saga, Hammerin' Hero, Yggdra Union, Steambot Chronicles Battle Tournament, R-Type Command, and Riviera: The Promised Land."
ATLUS should get its own PSN Publisher Store if they keep on pumping out games on the PSN. SO far, EA(EA SPORTS), Capcom and R* got their own store.
They should put Demons Souls on the PSN store. It may be a huge, expensive download but it beats never finding a copy of the game.
Like the gradius collection. R-Type is one of the greats and deserves a compilation of the series.
Wasn't R-type final suppose to be the last one?
looks good enough for me i like tactical games
ill pick this 1 up when i pick up a slim psp yes sur ree
sweet i might pick this one up
