Question about redbook audio featured in Raiden II for PC

Post by PC Engine Fan X! »

In the PC version of Raiden II, is the redbook audio formatted music the original arcade BGM tunes or is it the remixed version (like that found on the PSX version)?

Thanks for your informative answers as always... ^_~

The Interplay released USA version of Raiden II for PC still has the same "wrong" controller issues that plagued the USA region SCEA PSX port of the same name when playing in "Tate" mode...why is that? (Such a simple fix for the PC ver. of Raiden II to correct the messed up controls setup when playing in tate mode, right?)

It's interesting to learn that the PC version of Raiden II is really just another port of PSX Raiden II but specially formatted to play on such a Win95/98 setup from the get-go..... ^_~

Original arcade version.
For SFKhoa,

Ah I see, thanks for the info... ^_~

I've always dug the cool Raiden II BGM tunes when it was up & running in the U.S. based arcades, especially the "High Score Intial Entry Screen" BGM tune -- on the actual Raiden II PCB, one can't hear it in it's entirety as it cuts out in about 30-45 seconds but with the PC CD-Rom disc version, you finally can listen it as it was meant to be... ^_~

And just of curiousity, who was/were the music composer(s) for all three Raiden arcade PCBs: Raiden, Raiden II & Raiden DX PCBs?

Some of the arranged tracks are from Go Sato. All the original ones are Akira.

Akira left after Raiden. All of Raiden II is Go Sato, and he also arranged songs from Raiden for DX.
