Strike against the alien foe!

Raiden III Digital Edition, a revamped version of the wonderfully old-school vertical shoot 'em up classic, is available 10% off on GOG.com. That's only $8.99 for the first week.

Raiden III Digital Edition is a revival of the classic Raiden series of scrolling shooter games. Raiden III has new concepts are introduced, which includes a "new 3D scrolling system" that involves the camera pointing down normal to the player while the scenery moves in three dimensions: climbing, descending, and sometimes moving vertically. The blue Laser concept is more like a beam, instead of the ones seen in prior installments.

Re-live all your best arcade memories and kick some alien butts in Raiden III Digital Edition, for only $8.99 on GOG.com. The 10% off special release discount lasts until Wednesday, October 1, at 2:59PM GMT.

Oh hell yes! 100% GAMEPLAY ladies and gentlemen.

Soooo glad to see this here, it was a shame that it was taken down from PSN right before Raiden IV came out, leave it to GOG to justify things. :)
Woo, another surprise release (i.e., not on Tuesday or Thursday). That's some sleek shooty action in those screenies!
Nice! Now, if there was a way to also get Raiden II, I would be most happy.
I wonder if this has the same issues the other Raiden release has/had.
Oh wow! Insta-added for later :p
We don't have many shoot 'em up games on GOG so it's a very nice release. Wishlisted for now.

Unlikely, I don't think this one is running through an emulator, and it's a different developer on top of that.
*pssssst, Judas!* The release date says September 25, 2014. It's still Wednesday the 24th right now in Poland, isn't it?

No, the game card says September 25, and it should say September 24th, which is today, cause that's when you released it.
Not Crimzon Clover, but instant purchase.

Checked it in other stores also - it seems the official release date is 25 of september. Very curious :)

Edit: It seems every store jumped the gun on this release which is not bad at all :)
