Game description: The classic 1987 arcade shooter gets a complete makeover in R-Type Final. While it does include all-new features, such as the Force System and AI Mode, it still retains some of the classic gameplay that started it all. Use the Force System to power-up your ship and battle against the evil Bydo. Over 100 ships are available for you to choose from and customize. Save your ships on a memory card via AI Mode and battle head-to-head against the computer or your friend's machines.

Test configurations on Windows:

Environment			Configurations			Comments	Tester
Region	OS	CPU/GPU	Revision	Graphics	Sound/Pad
PAL	?	Intel Core2 Quad @2.4GHz ATI Radeon HD 3650	0.9.8 (stable)	GSdx 0.1.16 (stable)	SPU2-X 1.4.0	Performs at playable speeds, though it gets pretty close to native speed with most of the tweaks enabled. Frequent slowdown is expected, just like a normal PS2, although faster systems could eliminate this. Audio also sounds as good as it does natively. Only a few minor issues, such as Stage 5 graphic glitches and the HUD not disappearing during cutscenes.	Moshalas
NTSC-U	Windows	Intel Core i7 @ 3.4Ghz Nvidia GTX 285 768MB	1.1.0 r5452	GSdx 5442 SSE41	SPU2-X 2.0.0 LilyPad 0.11.0	Runs at 200% speed.	General-Plot

Has graphic glitches on stage 2.0 ( affect gameplay, can't see projectiles clearly, stage not so playable ) and 5.0 ( still playable ). Has slow downs on stage 3.0 at a specific part just like the PS2, but can be solved if PC hardware is stronger. AI versus mode has graphical glitch on ship HP, unable to determine HP in battle.
