The Bydo Empire just
won't stay dead, as Australia's Office of Film and Literature has rated a previously unknown title called
R-Type Dimensions for the Xbox 360. Little is known about the game other than it is being authored by
Lode Runner dev Tozai, leading us to believe that the title, be it a shooter,
strategy game, or some kind of
R-Type-themed cooking sim, will be released over XBLA.
While
R-Type Dimensions has yet to be rated by the ESRB, we doubt an official announcement is far behind. What we do wonder, however, is that if this does turn out to be a XBLA shooter, what the folks at Tozai know that
Cave does not.

This game is going to be a package of R-Type 1 & 2 and is also coming to the PSN later this year. I dont want to rat out my source cause it will get him in big trouble but Joystiq if you want to know just e-mail me but it was someone at Destructoid

What they know is that if they release a game that's not a direct arcade port, it will get through the cert process.
Now if only cave would catch on. I mean, hell, a remixed soundtrack and a new selectable ship ought to do the job.
