Mar 6, 2017I liked this game. Hard to get a good old school shoot em up these days but Raiden V is definely worth a look. The only downside to this game is the price and lack of multiplayer. Might be best to wait for a sale before purchase.

Jul 28, 2016It lacks a two player mode and the graphics look dated, yet fans of old-school shoot'em ups will feel very good playing Raiden V, especially if they are high-score hunters.

Jul 13, 2016Raiden V is without a doubt a solid shmup experience from start to finish (and start to finish again and again), but the real question is if it’s worth the asking price of $49.99 CAD. If you’re an old school gaming fan of the genre, like myself, you’ll easily find value here with lots of replayability, even more so if you want to climb the online leaderboards. That being said, everyone that isn’t into this niche genre will no doubt wonder how a game like this is priced so high, so this group of gamers may want to give it a chance once it’s on sale.

Jun 24, 2016Raiden V is a top old-school shmup, enriched by excellent gameplay features, great calibration and perfect rhythm. In the background of this pleasant scene, a notable work was done with the sound as well. Unfortunately the artistic direction doesn't look wholly brilliant and considerable extras are missing. However Raiden V stands as an absolutely recommended purchase to the vertical scroller shoot 'em' up lovers, very hard to master but as much fulfilling as few other games are.
