R-Type Command II: Operation Bitter Chocolate

[Falkner]

July 29, 2009 - Did you enjoy the strategic gameplay of R-Type Command? Then get ready for more! Famitsu reports that R-Type is coming back to the PSP, and once again its in the form of a strategy game rather than a shooter.

Titled R-Type Tactics II: Operation Bitter Chocolate (in Japan, the original was known as R-Type Tactics), the new game will arrive in Japan through Irem on October 29. Players can look forward to a branching story line based off the selections you make during the game. Irem is also upping the content and strategy, with double the units and additional commands.

My thoughts on this:


This game looks a lot better compared to the first one, in addition to making cameos of the whole series (look at super r-type and r-type final cameos from the stages). From what I'm seeing in some of the images, the stages will probably have co-op or another team to help you, and an actual personal storyline (instead of using the journal logs as the storyline). I can't wait :O

Never heard of this game [or the first]. I'll take a look into it, see if good.
