    Machacamarcianos de la vieja escuela, donde también hay algo de estrategia.

    After the updates things changed a lot and now it’s a great game all the way around. If you liked the first Final game you will enjoy this too. Recommended!!!

    I had high expectations for R-Type Final 2; its direct predecessor is one of my favorite games in the genre. To this day, I still rant to strangers about its massive collection of bizarre ships, its daringly cryptic branching paths and its boldly avant-garde final stage. The sequel doesn't quite soar to the same heights, but after you start unlocking its better content, it "finally" becomes a solid, compelling, long overdue return to the beloved, iconic series.

    R-Type Final 2 marks the return of the much revered 2D shooter series after nearly 20 years without any new games, and it does a marvelous job at bringing the R-Type experience to our day and age. Its levels are tough, the vehicles and weapons are varied, and the formula is loyal to its origins. New players might feel, however, that this game is not most suited for them, given the emphasis on an arcade experience.

    R-Type Final 2 is a bombastic if relatively safe continuation of the horizontal side-scrolling shoot-em-up. It has visual flair in spades and packs in plenty of customisation options, both of which make blasting away endless enemy waves fun.
