Welcome to Game of the Week, where we play a short, random game each week and discuss it.
This week's Game of the Week is R-Type!

What is it?
R-Type has returned! The legendary side-scroller is back and better than ever with beautifully rendered 3D graphics, exhilarating shoot-'em-up gameplay, and a multitude of stages, ships, and weapons that will allow you to conduct a symphony of destruction upon your foes.
