Is R-Type Final the end of the genre?

R-Type Final was intended as a grand farewell to a genre seen to be on its last legs, and a send-off from one of the all-time greats at that.

How well does R-Type Final 2 run on PS5?

Is the R-type worth it?

R-Type only suffers on technical issues: Slowdown often drags action to a crawl (an artificial aid lasers are easier to dodge in slow-mo), even though the graphics are sometimes more PS1.5 than PS2.
