I beat the game with all ships unlocked and all secrets found in 2004 back in the days. You just have to play it over and over again. With no internet i spend weeks to find everything. Awesome time.
@MonHun I love R-Type Final 2 so much, I think it's the best modern shmup with the sheer amount of content and such. I know people may disagree with me but I just greatly enjoy the game.
What a wonderful game this was. One of the few games where I've bothered to finish it to 100%, got absolutely obsessed with it a couple of years ago when my PS3 broke. Absolutely loved the level of detail they went into with the lore and the stories they told.
You know, as a 10 to 13 year old that was obsessed with this game for no apparent reason, I think I get why I loved this game so much now that I'm rewatching it at age 26: The design of the large enemies is so satisfying, you slowly peel away layers from it and it really gives the impression that you're cleaning the screen. I think it's something that tapped into my OCD and I never found out why until today. Add the ship collecting aspect of the game and you've got me hooked. Now I really wanna play this game again...
oh man this brings back good memories. i remember how happy i was when i finally unlocked the last ship. this game was so fun i spent my how summer break to unlocking all the ships..
Bruh you don’t understand the nostalgia I get from this. I was like 4 years old when I got this game and I played it so much up til I was like 9. This game is like such a childhood favorite of mine
These are some of the most amazing backdrops I've ever seen on any console - including the modern consoles. The Music is dark and eerie too. Amazing game!
@@manuell3505 these aren't 2d graphics. They are 3d polygonal graphics on a 2d side scrolling plane. R -Type Delta on the PS1 was the same way, and somehow runs a lot better than this game lol.
Aaaaand THIS was the only way that I would get to see the ending of this game! I was so frustrated and pissed off at the game, I pulled it out of my console and flung it into the wall! Glad to see someone has better control of their emotions and was able to complete the game....
I was trying to unlock the ships last nite and I found an alternate level 6 and my ship morphed into some sick ass Bydo meat-ship and then there was an alternate version of Level 1 where you fight a shit load of Rtype ships I cant believe this is real
I enjoy FPS today but I would also love seeing these shooter games again. Which is why today so many FPS are delayed because our industry are focusing more on graphic power and sophisticated effects.
DracXBelmont First of all, i said nowadays, not every game ever made Second, i (obviously) meant the popular titles (but u got me with your smart remark)
They are still made and has a loyal community. The number of shoot'em ups (aka shmups aka STG) released on Steam increases every day. Visit my channel to see some recent as, for example, the outstanding Dariusburst Chronicle Saviours launched in 2015 to PS4 and PC Steam.
Sincerely I expected more of this. Seems like the creative peak was in R-Type Delta. Even the soundtrack fitted amazingly with the gameplay! I pray for the next sequel to delight us with unexpected stuff.
Thanks for posting this! Motivated me to play the game again. Clearly the audio is being time-stretched which gives away the fact that you played it in slow-motion (30 fps) in the emulator, though =)
3:39 - the second-most chilling moment in the entire game... ...once you have gone through Stage F-B, which both beats it and explains why you fly uncontested by a Bydo craft at the very start of this. :P
I'll do anything to play like him and it takes hard work and that is what I will do. Learn from all of my mistakes I made in the past and use them to become better at shootem ups.
There are certainly some pretty easy parts of this game but there are also insanely hard parts where you have to squeeze into tiny spaces and dodge a plethora of almost seemingly randomly moving particles and beams and chunks of debris. Whoever filmed this long play makes this look like childs play. Crazy.
thi was really decent, its the only R-type I owned as Ps1 was my console and i own them all so far, this was an incredibly decent shmup, tons of variety, i had trouble finishing without great effort so i havent completed it in ages, thanks for the video! :)
@Draginvry2 YEah, you look past the lil' nicks, and just enjoy what this title does have to offer! This is one shooter that truly has stood the test of time!
Your a machine. I just watched the SNES R-Type 3 video and your skill is truly impressive. I never got very far in these games. My brother was able to beat Final on normal with 1 life. The secret levels where pretty cool too. I don't remember how to find them.
IN the final stages of R-Type final, Something weird is happening on the background... 2 Humans making love? Was the Bydo trying to I dunno? Copy humans?
@@ashgonza92 Ah. So It makes sense after all. Yeah Bydos are superweapons created by humans(Bio engineered weapons?) That what I got playing R-Type Final recently... How in the End your ship becomes either a metal clone or a fleshy weird bydo R-Type
@@Terraqueo22 Bydo have the ability to "bydofy" R craft. They basically goad the space corps into going into these missions just so they can convert their pilots and ships into Bydo. In R-Type Final there's 2 "bad" endings that show one pilot being turned into Bydo and another where the pilot is sent into the future where Bydo technology is created using their ship and force. The third and main ending shows the victory against one of the final cores.
Bring back R-type! Reboot the series! R-type Ps4, Xbox One, PC. please for the love of buttons. Please please please. Let this great game not be the last.
Finally! I had this game when it came out and I remember playing it and seeing that weird sex scene at the end. But no one else, that I knew, had the game so it was difficult to explain it. But now, 19 years later there it is. Starting at 44:30, there is the silhouette of a sex scene going on in the background and I have no idea why. I don't even care anymore, I'm just happy that other people will see! 🤣
OK Guys 6:17 - I heard this *CREEPY SOUND EFFECT* almost everywhere... Rurouni Kenshin... Cradle of Fith.... R- TYPE.. Can anyone tell me - Where was it originally sounded?!
You guys should check out the trailer for this indie kickstarter game called Starr Mazer, which is half space shmup, half point and click adventure game (think R-Type meets Space Ace meets Maniac Mansion): www.kickstarter.com/projects/imagosfilms/starr-mazer/description
Can someone help me find the name of a game similar to this that also released on the ps2? It’s the same side scroller I can’t remember the name tho it had story dialogue and you can customize the weapons load out, I remember the first mission being in space and then the 3rd or 4th being in a destroyed city, you shoot against like mecha aliens
I have some questions to ask if you don't mind me askin: 1. How did you get the final beam like that, and are there any pros and cons to it? 2. What's the best ship to use in the R-Type Final game? 3. What video recording & editing software do you utilize for your games?
It may be too late to reply but he is playing on an emulator and most roms are not exactly well made. So there tends to be a glitch with each and in this case distorted music
Climbing the Everest without oxygen and carrying a grand piano may be easier than finishing this game, impressive!
@Channel07 I needed cheats to beat the game
I still haven't beaten the game :(
I beat the game with all ships unlocked and all secrets found in 2004 back in the days. You just have to play it over and over again. With no internet i spend weeks to find everything. Awesome time.
@MonHun I love R-Type Final 2 so much, I think it's the best modern shmup with the sheer amount of content and such.
I know people may disagree with me but I just greatly enjoy the game.
ladies spot in THERW pink books. GOOD COMMENT. ..
I never thought I'd see the day where you could play an arcade style shooter while watching two people getting it on... until now.
What a wonderful game this was. One of the few games where I've bothered to finish it to 100%, got absolutely obsessed with it a couple of years ago when my PS3 broke. Absolutely loved the level of detail they went into with the lore and the stories they told.
R-Type Final 2 Is Coming Soon!!!! XD Can't wait to play it!!!! Oh also love your work bruh
I'm sad I never beat this game, but i never knew they were making a part 2
I used to play this game so much as a kid but I never knew or could remember the name. This brings back so many memories.
I love the art of these games perfectly played. Very good job. It's like watching a dance number performed without flaw.
You know, as a 10 to 13 year old that was obsessed with this game for no apparent reason, I think I get why I loved this game so much now that I'm rewatching it at age 26:
The design of the large enemies is so satisfying, you slowly peel away layers from it and it really gives the impression that you're cleaning the screen. I think it's something that tapped into my OCD and I never found out why until today.

Now I really wanna play this game again...
oh man this brings back good memories. i remember how happy i was when i finally unlocked the last ship. this game was so fun i spent my how summer break to unlocking all the ships..
Ugh, the fits Stage 5 used to give me....best R Type game of them all. Amazing gameplay, graphics, sound effects and soundtrack.
Bruh you don’t understand the nostalgia I get from this. I was like 4 years old when I got this game and I played it so much up til I was like 9. This game is like such a childhood favorite of mine
Still have this game. And I still play it. Easily one of my most favorite games of all time. Good thing my front loading PS2 still works. :)
I loved this game as a kid...spent soooo long trying to unlock all of the ships!
I played this game when i was 8y old and i could never end the game, today noticed how close i was to finish the game
That looks amazing. God bless the R-Type series
I remember playing this as a child and remembering how weirded out I was. Interesting game Ill probably go back to
I've been trying to find this game for years, the last time I played this was like 10+ years before
this is so nostalgic, i remember my childhood haha
How times fly, when we have fun. 10 Years old and still cool!
I'm here because R-Type Final 2 has been announced
Thats so cool, I just started to play the game recently : ))
R-Type final 3 is also announced!
These are some of the most amazing backdrops I've ever seen on any console - including the modern consoles.
The Music is dark and eerie too.
Amazing game!
This looks really damn impressive for a game from 2003.
The trick is simulating 3d with 2d graphics. A co-effect is the psychedelic look...
@@manuell3505 these aren't 2d graphics. They are 3d polygonal graphics on a 2d side scrolling plane. R -Type Delta on the PS1 was the same way, and somehow runs a lot better than this game lol.
I love how they tried to make a story that made some kind of sense.
well jesus i seen all the endings of this game i still think to myself and question irem...why is the endings so dark
CANNOT wait for r-type final 2... not enough games like this
Geez, this game is hard as fuck. And beating it on R-Typer difficulty with the most underpowered ship takes serious dedication.
Hell, beating it on R-Typer with the most OVERpowered ship ain't easy either.
One of my favorite games in existence
the music is amazing
Wow u completed the game with one life ur the best :)
Aaaaand THIS was the only way that I would get to see the ending of this game! I was so frustrated and pissed off at the game, I pulled it out of my console and flung it into the wall! Glad to see someone has better control of their emotions and was able to complete the game....
+dariusdynamite
This was just one of three endings.
This brings back so many memories. I spent hours on this game trying to unlock every ship.
I was trying to unlock the ships last nite and I found an alternate level 6 and my ship morphed into some sick ass Bydo meat-ship and then there was an alternate version of Level 1 where you fight
a shit load of Rtype ships I cant believe this is real
Definitely the best I've ever seen of all
Wow, it's awesome seeing this game running in 720p and without the slowdowns that were on the original PS2 hardware.
Why don't they make these kinda games anymore? I love these genre.
right, everything nowadays are 3D first person shooters
Yes, every single game ever made is a first person shooter. There are no other genres of games out there. At all.
I enjoy FPS today but I would also love seeing these shooter games again. Which is why today so many FPS are delayed because our industry are focusing more on graphic power and sophisticated effects.

why you always have to attack a giant mutant clytoris?
I was wondering the same thing
Subtext?
39:29 This part right here is so difficult for me. You've got enemies coming in from all 4 corners of the screen as well as from directly below you.
This game has amazing graphics for a PS2 game.
for a PS2 game maybe....but it still looks worse than a Sega Saturn game lmao
@@tynao2029 this particular one yeah. Gradius V however is another story. Timeless looking game, locked 60.
I could only imagine what that pilot of that ship looks like
Probably the darkest R Type of the series
Remember when this was going to be the final r-type until final 2 was announced?
Sincerely I expected more of this. Seems like the creative peak was in R-Type Delta. Even the soundtrack fitted amazingly with the gameplay! I pray for the next sequel to delight us with unexpected stuff.
It didn't. Delta still wins.
Thanks for posting this! Motivated me to play the game again. Clearly the audio is being time-stretched which gives away the fact that you played it in slow-motion (30 fps) in the emulator, though =)
Looks like Irem wanted to turn R-Type into a Radiant Silvergun or Ikaruga looking game but with sideways scrolling. Looks fantastic!
I had so much fun exploring all the secrets of this game... the 101 ships, secret levels, and alternate paths. What a grand way for R-Type to go out.
3:39 - the second-most chilling moment in the entire game...
...once you have gone through Stage F-B, which both beats it and explains
why you fly uncontested by a Bydo craft at the very start of this. :P
R-type in the future! Ps4, Xbox One
They made Tactics/2 afterwards
Then due to huge BS they stopped making games all together and went to making dumb slot machines
I came from the future. R-Type Final 2 is real
WHOAAA!!! Awesome game!!! I love his music, R-Type is the best type scrolling shooter game forever and ever :)
I'll do anything to play like him and it takes hard work and that is what I will do. Learn from all of my mistakes I made in the past and use them to become better at shootem ups.
New r type final 2 coming up soon!!
How can there be a 2 if this is supposed to be the FINAL one?
@@ReverendSyn The final to the final?
Perhaps a new run would be good, with the updated emulator... or if anyone has an original copy, or course.
Is the R-type ship damaged after defeat last boss?
There are certainly some pretty easy parts of this game but there are also insanely hard parts where you have to squeeze into tiny spaces and dodge a plethora of almost seemingly randomly moving particles and beams and chunks of debris. Whoever filmed this long play makes this look like childs play. Crazy.
Are there videos of the other two mission routes /the cerberos level?
I came here to tell everyone a sequel has been announced
What are the silhouettes doing in the background?
thi was really decent, its the only R-type I owned as Ps1 was my console and i own them all so far, this was an incredibly decent shmup, tons of variety, i had trouble finishing without great effort so i havent completed it in ages, thanks for the video! :)
I love the dark style of this game and also the music, maybe is not the best R-Type but for me the style is it.
Graphics are mind blowing still to this day.
Words cannot describe my feelings for this game. I love it as much as I hate it.
Man, I used to play it when I was like 6 or 7, so many great memories but it was so hard for me at the time lol
This and Gradius V still look freaking amazing in 2023!
@Draginvry2 YEah, you look past the lil' nicks, and just enjoy what this title does have to offer! This is one shooter that truly has stood the test of time!

Dont remember the song at the end, is this another version?
In the US version the ending song is, uh, "Piano Smasher" by the Blue Man Group
IN the final stages of R-Type final, Something weird is happening on the background... 2 Humans making love? Was the Bydo trying to I dunno? Copy humans?
They are sending a message to the player (pilot log computer) that they (Bydo) are indeed humans. "How else would we know how you copulate?"
@@ashgonza92 Ah. So It makes sense after all. Yeah Bydos are superweapons created by humans(Bio engineered weapons?) That what I got playing R-Type Final recently... How in the End your ship becomes either a metal clone or a fleshy weird bydo R-Type

This and psyvariar got me feeling so nostalgic
Its repetitive but the vast number of unlockable ships and their various unique abilities kept me coming back
Bring back R-type! Reboot the series! R-type Ps4, Xbox One, PC. please for the love of buttons. Please please please. Let this great game not be the last.
OH GOD YEAH I WOULD LIKE THAT
Rejoice. R-Type Final 2 is real

The Bydo are demonstrating their knowledge of human copulation because they are human themselves.
The description says that the video maker replaced the ending credits song with the one from the Japanese version to avoid copyright claims.
I love how they made 2 more FINALS after this final r type lol
IMHO, This is the best side-scroller of all time. I have a copy of this safe in my collection.
i was watching knights of sidonia and all i could think of is , damn this reminds me so much of r-type
I fully agree with everything you've said.
Delta was, and always will be my favourite.
Nice play....!
Great game. Love the R-Type series!
Does anyone know what game came along side this one
R-Type Command?
Very well played, nice Longplay.
i still have this game with all the 101 ships unlocked, a great hidden gem of a game
when i was child i heard trance music... great
The final boss in stage 5 is a nightmare. You'd have a better chance at controlling time than beating the boss
Sadly, graphically this actually looks better than R-Type Final 2 which using Unreal Engine!
Not only the visuals, this classic is awesome, much better than r type final 2.
RTF 2 looks very flat compared to this
OK Guys 6:17 - I heard this *CREEPY SOUND EFFECT* almost everywhere... Rurouni Kenshin... Cradle of Fith.... R- TYPE..
Can anyone tell me - Where was it originally sounded?!
@Simon0
Congrats. This is a really cool game.
I would love to say that the reproductive theme to this game is symbolic... But its not. Its out right in your face. I 💕 it!
so cool.
I wish they'd release this on PS Store.
This person is so awesome and this game is so hard i can't even play on r-typer
@Paynekiller87 oh lol thnx i was wondering why he didnt take dmg =]

When I played this game the credits song was very different...there isn't any other version?
Using some kind of emulator? The sound was wonky compared to what I remember..
Uh, so is no one gonna mention how in the last level theres two people having sex in the background?
Watching this game i start to suffer from seasickness...
is anchor type unlockable?
Good night, R-Type...
@deicide666slayer He didn't get hit because the Bit above the ship absorbed the bullet.
@Draginvry2 how does it compare to delta? Delta is brilliant.
I have some questions to ask if you don't mind me askin:

2. What's the best ship to use in the R-Type Final game?

+IANNG236 I dont get that with mine actually, but then again I cant keep a consistant fram rate in the more intense parts and need a better gpu.
+david gerard it is probably because they improved it by a ton at this point, this video was recorded in 2010 so they had ample time to fix it.
IANNG236 I wander if it will be re-recorded to fix some of the sound issues and what not, I am sure some people may be happy to take a stab at it.
