R-Type Delta: HD Boosted

[table][th] Review by [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/34633003-Gaming-Masterpieces/lists/] Gaming Masterpieces [/url] - The greatest games of all time on Steam. [/th][/table] Is this game a masterpiece? Well, I enjoyed the original, and at first sight I would have said this PC-port is a masterpiece. When you play a bit longer, though, you find out that there is content (like enemies) missing from the original. The game is not an emulation of the old PlayStation title, but has been completely remade based on the old source code. The whole source code was not available. So, did they simply leave out what was not here to port? I fear it looks that way. Anyway, what is here is good. R-Type Delta, the fourth installment of the series, previously exclusive to PlayStation 1, is now finally available for PC and consoles. The original R-Type is one of the most influential horizontal shooters of all time. Released by IREM in 1987 for arcades, the game was ported to various home computers (excellent on the C-64, and almost as good as in the arcade on the Amiga, where Chris Hülsbeck's iconic soundtrack came out of the speakers). The series continued over the years, with R-Type 2 (1989) followed by R-Type Leo (1992), R-Type III: The Third Lightning (1993, SNES), and finally R-Type Delta (1998, PlayStation). This millennium saw the addition of the three parts of R-Type Final. The series revolves around an intergalactic war between humans and the Bydo, a powerful alien race consisting of both biological life forms and mechanical structures. The bosses in the R-Type series are absolutely legendary in their design. In almost all games, the R-9 Arrowhead combat spacecraft (or a variation thereof) was your ship. R-Type Delta was the first to use 3D polygon graphics instead of classic sprites, which was almost mandatory for PlayStation games at the time. In 1998, 2D was dead, and almost all new releases tried their hand (with varying degrees of success) at 3D. This worked really well for R-Type Delta, as the gameplay remained very similar to its predecessors. The backstory is quickly told. It is the year 2163, and Earth is once again on the brink of destruction. Humans have lost control of the Moritz-G space station, and it is about to set to work destroying Earth. A major city has already been destroyed, so the R9 Delta prototype (or you can choose the R13 and the RX) must get to work and stop the attackers. As usual, we fly from left to right on an automatically scrolling screen and attack our enemies with our cannon. Regularly appearing extras give us additional firepower. The first extra is always the legendary indestructible Force (a kind of satellite), which we can dock either at the front or rear of our spaceship and which then serves as a shield, or which we can detach, whereupon it fights enemies independently (but we no longer have a shield). We can call it back at any time. So you always have to decide how to use the Force most effectively in each section. If you lose a life, all extras are gone and the Force is always the first new extra to appear. The very different enemies are, as usual, vicious and don't hold back, always firing very accurately at our current location. In order to progress, it is essential to memorize the enemy waves. If you don't know who appears when and where, you won't get very far – as with practically every classic shmup. If you hold down the fire button longer, your cannon will charge up and allow you to fire a particularly powerful shot – this is also a weapon that has been around since the first R-Type game. Incidentally, another fire button is assigned to continuous fire – so you don't have to press the button like crazy to fire, as you once had to do in the arcade. A special feature of R-Type Delta is the Delta Force. It charges slowly and can then be fired by pressing another button (Y by default). Depending on where the Force is currently located, you can use it to unleash a devastating attack in the middle of enemy territory while the R9 is at a safe distance. The levels are relatively short, but the challenge lies in surviving them. A single hit is enough to lose a life. And with the loss of a life, all collected extra weapons (force, missiles, smaller escort ships, and various special weapons) are also gone. Even if you can continue playing shortly before your death (if you still have a life), the rest of the level becomes significantly more difficult. By the way, there are no speed-up extras, but you can accelerate your ship with L1 and slow it down with L2. You have five continues and three lives at your disposal. R-Type Delta still plays like a classic shmup, before the later (bullet-hell) Cave shooters with their endless numbers of enemy projectiles. In the R-Type Delta HD Boosted version, the old 3D graphics have been upscaled to HD and are now razor sharp on 4K screens. The soundtrack has been expanded to include alternative tracks. There is a new training mode, and various screen resolutions are supported. [u][b] Conclusion:[/b][/u] R-Type Delta lives up to its reputation as one of the best shoot 'em ups of all time in the HD Boosted version. It was about time someone ported the old PlayStation classic to new systems. Unfortunately the port seems to be not 100% complete compared to the original. Well, what is here is good. What is not good is the atrocious regional pricing - it seems the game is only intended for players from the rich part of the world, since the prices in the poorer regions are more or less the same. Only Brazil gets it a half price.

オリジナルであるPS版を2025/11/20までプレイし続け500時間ほど擦り倒した人の感想です 2026/02/24でのアップデートにより「物凄く」よくなりました PS版と比べた結果、今までは90点、今回のアプデで98点の出来になりました (1点は最終リザルトが「プチュン」と消えない所(そこまでこだわるんならもうPS版やれよですね)) これによりPS版が好きだった人は「買って絶対に損はない」レベルのゲームになりました 肝心のゲームとしての面白さですが 「R-TYPEに触れてみたいけど難しそう」と思っているのでしたらこれが一番初心者に優しいR-TYPEですのでお勧めです 2点ほどPS版と違う違和感があったのでシティコネクション様に届くことを願って一応書かせていただきます 3面ゲイツ(ボス)の足をくぐり終えるあたりで出てくる緑の歩行雑魚の数(PSでは1～2体)が3体出てきた (恐らく全機体で)エンディングの脱出シーンが今度は遅すぎる(PS版だとBGMが最後のﾌｧｰと言った1秒後くらいに波動砲発射してる)

This is a perfect modern R-Type game. It's far more balanced than its successors - the Final series - because there are far fewer ships, so the stages always feel fair no matter which one you're using. That you could adjust your speed on the fly in an era when shmups still had you collecting speed power ups was a godsend. The addition of the Dose attack, acting as a smart bomb, is a nice feature too for when you get into tight spots. The graphics are good for a PlayStation game and look nice in HD. I've noticed some minor changes to enemy placement from the original game, but so minor that it's a non issue. The soundtrack is outstanding. Not my favorite R-Type game, as that still belongs to Final, but this one is far more fair and is a gold standard for the genre. At the price point we're getting, there's no reason not to jump in. Highly recommended.

내가 가장 사랑하는 R-TYPE 시리즈, 알타입 델타의 리마스터 버전. 스위치판으로 먼저 사서 열심히 하고 있었지만 아무래도 결함이 계속해서 나와서 기분이 나쁘다. 자코 터지는 소리가 전부 중대형기 폭발음으로 통일된 사운드 버그. 음악 버그 엔딩의 그래픽 버그 처리지연 선택조차 불가능해 망가진 싱크의 음악을 그대로 들어야 하는 고통 어딘가 어색해진 컨트롤러 진동 특히 스팀판은 이번 이식작의 수많은 그래픽 사운드 버그에 더해 불편한 키배열과 키조작 커스텀의 제한으로 더욱 숨통이 막힌다

私が記憶する限り、 デルタの移植はない記憶（あったらすんまそ） 今となってはPS版はプレミアがつき、簡単には購入すらできない おまけにPSなんて状態のいいのが手に入らない..... デルタやりたいけどやりたいと思っているそう！そこのあなた！ ほぼ完全移植のPC版デルタを購入するべき！ R-Typeデルタが家にあると、ちょっと嫌なことがあっても『まあ家に帰ればモリッツG倒せるしな』ってなるし、仕事でむかつく人に会っても『そんな口きいていいのか？ 私は自宅でPOWアーマーとよろしくやってる身だぞ』ってなれる。 戦闘力を求められる現代社会においてR-Typeデルタと同棲することは有効

It does not work on Linux properly . On Steamdeck it works without any audio using proton GE / CachyOS versions . on Arch it works but I can't get past the first cut-scene.

Отличный ремейк культового шутера 1998 года с современными улучшениями, но цена возможно дороговатая (при скидках думаю можно подумать о покупке). Любителям Shoot 'em up обязательно стоит обратить внимание на неё. https://youtu.be/m9T1hnQs5TY

Super gostoso de jogar fácil de aprender , que deliciaa cara. 10/10

一言で言って「理不尽」 パターン覚えゲーなのは当然だが、過去のＲ‐TYPEと比べても理不尽要素が多い ・敵が画面に映っているのにこちらの弾は当たらず、敵の攻撃判定だけあり弾も撃ってくる ・敵の絵よりも大きい当たり判定 ・突然画面内に現れ、その瞬間攻撃してくる雑魚 ・敵弾が速い。数も多い 素材はいいのだが、細かいところでストレスフルなゲーム
