Yes,the RPG in World Court (and Final Lap Twin) are fun.

Final Lap Twin is another one I'm excited to finally start, I couldn't get into moto roader, the constant jumping of a vehicle drove me nuts.

The HuCARD is fantastic port. Not perfect, but few games ever were back in the day.

Challenging game. You will cry.

It is NOT a perfect game, nor does it do anything new for the genre (a lineage of prior games use the same mechanics, formula).

It is nicely executed, though.

I never really understood why Raiden garnered so much attention...it was a polished rehash of existing shootemups.

But, even I found myself going back to it at arcade, so maybe it did deserve a hug.

The little details are nice (cows!).

CD-ROM PCE version has nice orchestral soundtrack and two extra stages, so I'd say that was a welcome BONUS after you beat HuCARD.

Awesome, thank you, we made it to level four last night before calling it quits.
It felt mediocre, yet still very fun, and holy f*ck quite a few continues in that game, I'm assuming it gets really painful near the end aha.

I'm trying to play Tricky Kick...not doing so well. I get the game mechanics in theory. But in practice....I suck.

R-Type and Raiden, as far as US releases go, give me the most trouble by about a mile compared to every other shooter on the TG

But I haven't plaid Sinistron yet, and I hear that one is absolutely brutal to beat.

Are you talking about Super Raiden for the Super CD-ROM? Not trying to be an ass, just want clarification. :) Didn't know Raiden was on Hu and CD

I had an easier time beating Sinistron than either R-Type or Raiden. I might be wrong, but I think Sinistron has shorter and fewer stages, so even if it gets challenging, you have a shorter gauntlet to run through. At least, that is how I have always felt.

Yup, Super Raiden CD. Great for Raiden fans, IMHO.

If it's R-Type or Raiden level difficult, but with shorter stages, then I am definitely up for the challenge. But I might shit myself and die if I tack on another shoot 'em up that I find myself unable to beat
