Beautiful cinematic presentation without any disruptions to the flow of gameplay and a nearly seamless 5th gen transition for such a classic series.

The Raiden Project is some of the best shit on the PSX.

It's a shame the sound quality for the original arcade soundtrack is so fucked for some bizarre reason. It's seriously distracting once you notice how much change there is between the two.

Yeah, because having access to boss rush mode is so worth it when the slowdown trivializes every single boss that posed any sort of significant challenge. You stupid fuck.

The slowdown really isn't that bad in the ps1 version of G Darius. It's really only noticeable when the game is loading the next segment (towards the end of the first half of the level and just before the boss shows up). During the boss fights I find the game runs pretty smoothly.

Resurrecting instantly is better.

Games with checkpoints usually have shitty bosses to compensate for the checkpoint system.

Play the japanese version of Raiden or Toaplan games, you'll get fucking raped by the bosses.

None of those games you mentioned have bosses as complex as can be found in Cave or Raizing games.
