This is one of the best shoot 'em ups on PC. I remember that on some special date (don't know which), the sound of apogee is changed, propably some easteregg. I now have this game on iphone and it's cool, there's also windows version! |

| Abandoned Witch | Just loved that game and its Demonstar sequel. The game is not really that hard, since I got the MKS version. |

| Wicky | This game is kewl, but I remember DawnRaider was bit better. It had a cool super-beam weapon that required you to press and and hold a button for some 30 seconds before it fully charged up. And you could play coop with a friend sharing 1 keyboard. DR didn't have many weapons, only 1 that could be upgraded like 30 times until it reached it's full potential. |

Sorry to all Raptor-fans ! Sorry to all Raptor-fans but I think that the levels, graphics and effects are not varied enough. My favorites are STARGUNNER (a little like Katakis or R-Type) and Tyrian 2000. Sometimes I play the nostalgic shooters Xenon 2 (converted from Amiga-game) and Overkill (like old C64 shooters). |

| mkeller | I got the demo of this a couple years ago as part of eGames' Arcade Master game CD. I never really liked it that much (preferred Demonstar and Drone), but after reading the glowing reviews on here, I just may try it again. The funny thing is, I never knew it was a DOS game, or that it was so old, until I saw it as the 'screenshot of the day' on here! |

The monkeys and laser-cows are simply hilarious  one of the best shooter games ever. I liked it even more than Tyrian. The only other PC shooter I enjoyed (although that was a few years before Raptor) was Major Stryker... |

I did, multiple times (and thus on all difficulties). Use the best weapon along with the surface to ground missiles and all auto-equip weapons, get full shields (if necessary, deplete an old one at the end of a mission if it's recieved too much damage), and make sure you don't have more switchable weapons (timing is essential in that, imho). Keep four bombs ready, with the last one being pickup or money. Oh, and always start with the Bravo sector. The other sectors are very hard without any equipment. The Bravo sector can be finished with machine guns only (I did, though not on elite yet [/brag] :P). |

| Cosmonaut_Roger | So has anyone here ever finished and beaten Raptor? I've heard people say it isn't that difficult with the right weapons and shields, but I've never been able to beat the last level and bosses, it always seemed way too insanely difficult. |

I loved to play Raptor since i was young and beautiful. In earlier Times i just played the Shareware Version but someday i found the Full Version (it was on a Game CD or something.. i dont Remember) Now i completed almost the whole Game but the Final Wave at the End is Impossible... even with full Shields, Mega Bombs and lot of Training im finish after the 1st Boss.. But its one of my favourite Games ever... i will make a Remix of a Level Song... think its Level 7 or something.. |
