R-Type Final may have been the last shooter in Irem's series, but it wasn't the last R-Type game. The newly announced "R-Type Tactics" for PSP falls into the genre of "hex-oriented turn-based strategy" - not exactly what I was expecting, but fresh none-the-less. Perhaps following in the footsteps of Cosmic Wars and Paro Wars?
