  The Raiden Project reviewed @ www.vidgames.com
The game is a vertically scrolling shootem up with the usual array of power-up's, ground based targets (both moving and static) and ariel targets and with some of the coolest end of level bosses I've seen for a while..
The origonal raiden (Raiden 1) is not amazing to look at graphics wise but as it's one of my fave games in the arcade I can truly say that it's arcade perfect in every respect.
The first smartbomb is the same as raiden one (causes a huge round exposion infront of you) the second is much cooler to watch (lots of small rockets fire around your craft and expode on the ground) but i don't think it kills bosses quite as well as the round one...

 Raiden - Digital Press Online
Raiden remains one of the 16-bit mainstays, and if a console is truly worth owning, it has a version.
The PS One Raiden Project, aside from the soundtrack (which out of all these translations is the best when set to remix), is the same.
Other ports are true to the arcade game, slowly moving to an unfortunate ship until it lands to finish the job.

 Jaguar Front Page News - Reviews
Game Description: Raiden is a classic arcade shooter that came out in the arcades by Fabtek and was then converted to the Jaguar as one of the first Jaguar games ever.
In this game Mother Earth has fallen to aliens and you must pitch a counerattack as you are the pilot of the Raiden Supersonic.
The downside is this is a fairly old arcade game so despite the beyond perfect graphical conversion it still did not take too much advantage of the Jaguars capabilities.

 Raiden Trad Review
Granted, it is based on an early 90's arcade game, and therefore, I could be forgiving of that.
Raiden Trad may have five levels of difficulty, but I was hard-pressed to find much difference between them, other than the number of continues you're given.
I was hoping Raiden Trad could've given me some glimpse at what the arcade classic Raiden would be like, or at least prepare me to take on more challenging modern overhead-view shooters (which I currently suck at playing).

 SHMUPS!
A bit of a swizzle the Raiden DX disk actually, it's just a slightly jazzed up version of Raiden Project, and to be honest I can't see THAT much difference with it anyway.
I wish the developers would stop milking the game for all it's worth and move on though, they do seem to be stuck in a wee bit of a Raiden rut, and it must be said it never was the very best shooter anyway!
Raiden 2 has a lot of aesthetic touches, especially the way the enemies blow up and scatter hundreds of parts around.

 AGH Lynx Review -- Raiden
Raiden is based, as the name kind of suggests, on the Seibu Kaihatsu arcade hit shooter.
What gave the game charm was its booming soundtrack and huge explosions, much of which was surprisingly preserved in Atari's color portable version.
In Raiden's case, it's not the end of the world when it happens, as the game isn't so hectic that you can't recover when you're back to square one.

 IGN: Raiden Review
The most severe difference is the size of the game graphics; though the sprites have been shrunken down to fit on the Lynx screen, they're not small enough.
The only music in the game is a brief, looping tune at the title page, and in-game sounds consist of a handful of generic explosions, weapons, and beeps.
Raiden on the Lynx is an admirably ambitious effort to duplicate the arcade game.

 Raiden review #2
Two player simultaneous with 2 controllers An arcade classic makes its way to the Jaguar - Raiden is a faithful conversion of the late 80's arcade game.
The landscapes are detailed, and look very much like the arcade version, even down to the "wandering cow" in the middle of the herd on stage 1.
It may be an exacting copy, but the music isn't that great in the first place, at least to me. The music changes when you fight the boss monsters that end each level, so when the music starts to sound ominous, watch out for a spray of bullets.

As you proceed through the game, specific enemy units will drop items that will help upgrade the weapons in your fighter.
Choose between such weapons as the classic spread weapon for wide-area damage or the laser beam for deadly concentrated firepower.

Of these, 1 of them are original dedicated machines, 2 of them are conversions in which game circuit boards have been placed in another game cabinet, and 19 of them are only circuit boards which a collector could put into a generic case if desired.
Some common games show up as very rare here because collectors don't want them (they are common because arcade operatos might be sitting on tons of them in warehouses), while some fairly scarce games are grabbed by collectors every time they show up.
Additionally, some games made in the last 5 years are still making money for operators and are thus not yet affordable to the typical collector.

 Raiden X: review, discussion, hints, tips and walkthrough at Jay is Games
Raiden X is an excellent Flash game that is lots of fun to play, though it was a bit easy for me to complete on Normal difficulty.
this game is well done, in the fact that i know how long it would take to script everything needed for raiden.
if some of the aspects in the game, such as the backround, werent drawn in the paint program, and if the beams where a bit more acurate and constant, this game would be a very good recreation of the original.

 The Video Game Critic's Jaguar Reviews M-R
I was expecting the original version to be just like the original arcade game, but it's not.
This is one of those games that looks and sounds spectacular, but once you start playing you realize that there's very little under the surface.
The game combines the slow, deliberate gameplay of Super Mario Brothers with the lush colorful graphics of a Sonic the Hedgehog game.

Although this is probably as close as a home version of Raiden will ever get to the arcade, I don't really care anymore because I have played it on every other system years ago and have had just about enough already.
I am happy that Raiden 2 finally came home, although it is not much better than the original.
Bottom line: it's just Raiden, except in the PSX incarnation, the wizards at Seibu have added a bit o' the processor slowdown...

If you've played any of the newer Raiden games in the series such as Raiden Fighters, you'll definitely be familiar with the game.
Each level is an additional challenge, requiring a unique strategy and weapon choice, and anyone who manages to reach the spave level, level 6, on one quarter is insane.

The atmostphere of the game is still there as the music, and vocals add to the environment.
