Is anything more satisfying than battling giant warships in the original arcade R-Type? Arcade originals This is honestly a tough one as I love Gradius' power-up gauge but I'll pick R-Type as the winner here simply due to its clever use of the Force unit. Detaching it to deal with hard-to-reach foes and the ability to attach it to the ship's rear adds a layer of strategy that makes overcoming challenging situations a rewarding endeavour.
Meanwhile, R-Type's R-9 ship relies on an attachment orb known as Force that can shift between various chargeable weapons upon collecting them. It feels awesome to slowly turn Vic Viper into an unstoppable enemy-killing machine. Gradius features its iconic power-up gauge where collecting pick-ups cycles through an array of power-ups then you tap a button to deploy whichever one is selected. The main aspect that sets these series apart is their use of power-ups. Throw in a bunch of cool boss fights and you're left with a winning formula. They're both far from bullet hell as the amount of onscreen projectiles is rarely overwhelming so the challenge primarily relies on your ability to deal with tricky situations and tackle enemies effectively before they get the best of you. Both series consist of horizontally-scrolling stages where you dodge projectiles and hazards while shooting enemy forces.
