One of the greatest shooters of all time is coming for the iPhone. Side scrolling alien blasting action that has been hard as nails since the 80s will yet again try my patience, and skill as a gamer. The amount of times I have crashed and burned in R-Type is beyond mathematical comprehension. But I am ready for it, and seeing the screens below my trigger finger is beginning to glow. Bring it on evil Bydo!
R-Type for iPhone keeps 100% true to the original game allowing fans to get back to the ‘80s video-arcade experience in the palm of their hands.
Some features include:
• Blast off and strike the evil Bydo Empire. Pilot a futuristic fighter, the R-9a “Arrowhead,” and attack wave after wave of Bydo baddies in old-school side-shooter style
• Wide variety of different power ups and ship upgrades
• Includes original arcade game features including eight unique levels with 8 different bosses each and three different controls – tilt, touch and virtual D-Pad
• 3 different control modes and multiple difficulty modes.
R-Type for iPhone and iPod touch will be coming soon from EA Mobile.
