R-Type III: The Third Lightning is one of the worst games ever created.
The entire game consists of six levels. SIX LEVELS. You get to choose from three different power-ups at the beginning. It does not make any difference.
Okay, then you go through the level shooting stuff. It always takes forever for the stuff to blow up. Then you're done.
When I bought this game, it was so horrible, that I actually had to wait for someone on GameFAQs to put up codes so that I could get to other levels. And those were horrible too.
Overall, R-Type III: The Third Lightning sucks.
Please do not buy R-Type III: The Third Lighting.
R-Type III: The Third lightning blows.
R-Type III: The Third Lightning is very bad.
