XBLA: Xbox 360 Deal of the Week is R-Type Dimensions

XBLA: Xbox 360 Deal of the Week is R-Type Dimensions

R-Type Dimensions fans might want to look at this weeks Xbox 360 "Deal of the Week" from XBLA. This week only "R-Type Dimensions" will be available for 800 Microsoft Points. That's a saving of 400 MS Points.

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!

  • Classic arcade action: R-Type Dimensions includes R-Type and R-Type II, two fully playable classic coin-op games.

  • Multiple game modes: Try the Classic game mode with play that exactly mimics the original coin-op experiences, or the all-new Infinite game mode, assuring the completion of your game regardless of skill level. Either mode offers both single player and all-new co-op play (both local and over Xbox LIVE). Switch on-the-fly between 2-D and 3-D graphic modes even during play.

  • Crazy camera: Play from a non-orthogonal camera view, adding a whole new perspective.

  • Cooperative play: New cooperative play uses a simple yet thrilling revive system, and a ship collision feature that can be turned on for added difficulty and sparring.

  • New features: The new stage unlock functionality allows you to have immediate access to your favorite stages, and the new Continue option lets you restart from the last accessed checkpoint when the game's over.
As always for more detailed information on R-Type from XBLA check out the 360-HQ Xbox 360 Games database from the links below for more screenshots, videos/trailers, news and lots more.

If your a die hard R-Type fan you might want to look this one over since it seems to be packed with grate features and crisp clean graffix, the real question here would be is this game packed with 1200 MS point worth of features and i dont know why but i just do see how it could be.
