XBLA: This Week On XBLA - R-Type Dimensions
It appears that NHL 3-On-3 is not making its way out this week. According to the NHL Arcade page it looks like it'll be out next week instead.
This week you can grab R-Type Dimensions, a collection of the first two R-Type games, for 1,200 MSP.
"The coin-op classics, R-Type and R-Type II, are together at last in R-Type Dimensions! Fight through all 14 Bydo-infested stages in original 2-D or all-new 3-D graphics, and swap back and forth on-the-fly. The classic gameplay remains untouched, and a new Infinite game mode allows continuous progression from game start to the final boss. The Bydo will not evade you this time! Game modes can be played as single player or multiplayer missions, either locally or over Xbox LIVE. Pull yourself together, save the Earth, and strike down the evil Bydo Empire!"
Comments
Well, 1200 MPts./15 USD is actually more than I was expecting and feels pretty expensive campared to the 800 Points for Biionic Commando.
On the other hand R-Type (TG16) & Super R-Type (SNES )each cost 800 Wii-Points on the Virtual Console, so it´s actually not that bad of a deal considering it includes two (presumably..) Arcade-Perfect ports + enhanced Rremakes + Co-Op.
