Raiden II (W32)

Raiden II

Platform: Windows 32 Year: 1997 Developer: Kinesoft Development Corp. Buy: Amazon

Raiden II is a scrolling shoot-em-up. The windows port is based on the arcade game. While keeping all of the insane bullets-flying-everywhere action of the first game, Raiden II adds in new weapons and enemies to the game while offering just as much difficulty and excitement.

Music

VGMPF Album Art

The Windows version had full digital stereo audio to work with, so they could have made an even higher fidelity soundtrack, but they decided to record the then out-of-date synthesized arcade music. While this is a little disappointing, it does nicely preserve the original sound. The Level 1 music was used in the Korean-based game Red Hawk (ARC).
