Raiden Fighters, Raiden Fighters 2, and Raiden Fighters
Jet; the names are familiar to any gamer. Back in the day these
legendary arcade cabinets came to symbolize extreme difficulty,
never-ending secrets, and the resultant devastating loss of
quarter-based wealth. All three games have now been recreated and
enhanced with new features on Xbox 360 for the ultimate
collection, Raiden Fighters Aces. .caption { font-family:

The Games
Raiden Fighters
Originally released in 1996, Raiden Fighters features seven
levels that make up the game's three missions. Within these
players will have access to eight different fighter craft.
Raiden Fighters 2
Originally released in 1997, the action in Raiden Fighters 2 is
set four years after the events of the first game. Here players
utilize seven standard fighters as well as several unlockable
aircraft.
Raiden Fighters Jet
Originally released in 1998, Raiden Fighters Jet contains most
of the aircraft from Raiden Fighters 2 and also features updates
to the medals and scoring system.
Gameplay
The games within the Raiden Fighters franchise are vertical
scrolling air combat shooters. That is, although an update to the
original games of this compilation allow players to flip the
playing area horizontally for a full screen effect, the standard
vertical orientation of the action reflects the upright nature of
the arcade machines that they were originally designed for.
Combat within the games consists of multiple stages, which make
up the games' missions. Within these missions players have use of
a variety of aircraft which they use to attack targets both in
the air and on the ground. Each aircraft depending on the game
played, features a selection of weapon options including standard
firepower along the line of missiles, lasers and bombs. Aircraft
also possess different charged/special attacks, some of which are
exclusive to multiplayer games. Players receive points for
success in taking out mission identified targets as well as
collecting bonus items known as "medals" that appear on the
gameplay area.
