R-Type Dimensions Discounted on Xbox Live
Grab the remakes of the original R-Type and R-Type 2 on Xbox Live Arcade for just 10 bucks this week.
By Dustin Quillen, 08/03/2009

Microsoft's Deal of the Week promotion soldiers on through the summer with this week's discounted Xbox Live Arcade game, R-Type Dimensions. The reimagined-for-XBLA double-threat of the original R-Type and R-Type 2 is now going for just $10.00 (800 Microsoft points) -- 33 percent off its normal price of $15.00 (1200 Microsoft points).

Anyone thinking about grabbing this two-pack of classic Irem shoot-em-ups? Now would be the time, because this discount will only last until next Monday. Those laser-firing space fetuses aren't going to just shoot themselves, y'know.

I bought R-Type Dimensions within an hour or so of it being released back in Feb, (the day I got my 360 in fact) but for those that haven't commited, now is the time. I say it was worth it for $15 IMHO, so now at $10 there's no reason not get it.

This is a really good price for both games. The way the 3D handled is nice.

haha- damn. I bought it waaay back when- and havent really played it much (did a 2p stint with my brother a while back). $10 is not bad for that one.

i also bought it in the 1st week upon release... but even if i wanted to get it now, i couldnt, cuz i have no Gold Live account.

I too paid full price. I have no regrets cause we need to support this awesome genre of gaming in this age of saturated FPS.
