Anyone else notice this? Rtype Delta and Salamander 2.

Post by JacobXScum »

So, i've always been an Rtype fan. Obviously. And i was getting playstation iso's and i saw a screenshot for Rtype Delta. There was a big worm boss thing, and i'm like "I know that boss" but i haven't played that game. Then i realized it's the boss from the first stage of Salamander 2. Literally the SAME BOSS. I wonder how they got away with that. I know SOMEONE else noticed this.

It's very likely that the site has the screenshot mislabelled.Unfortunately you cannot expand the view of it. Come to think of it, it does look different than the rest of the screenshots.

Here it is.

Don't link to sites containing TEH ROMZ for download.

And what Plasmo said is correct, they had misplaced a Sally 2 image into the R-Type Delta page.

Um...speaking of R-Type Delta...its a great game. Greater than R-Type Final.

Although I like both.

Every R-Type is better than Final...
Of course, that's just an opinion.

It's Leo and Salamander 2 that feel a lot alike to me, with the launching off Psy Bits / Options, co-op, and overall graphical styles.
