    Did Mortal Kombat get that one wrong as well? Sure that series can't even spell combat right.

    Was actually talking about the shmup. I do call the Mortal Kombat character 'Ray-den' too though.

    This chap on the other hand I call 'R-eye-den'. So I'm even lacking consistency in myself :D

    'Ray-den' forever!

    R-eye-den sounds too much like roide or roidin, something you'd hear in The Snapper probably. :D

    Annoys me that that fairy appears in a Google search result before the fabulous Seibu Kaihatsu shmups of the same name. ;)

    Or 'Ree-yu' instead of 'R-eye-yu"

    How were we supposed to know it was wrong? we were kids :pac:

    "He said he was a cybernetic ninja on shore leave!"

    Axelay is the job, like Parodius too, that was just mental fun and the music was brilliant.

    You were right as a kid! thats how that name is pronounced. I know this from watching Akira in Japanese a billion times - one of the main characters is called 'Ree-yu' (Ryu)

    But yeah as Enternow said, less emphasis on the 'ee' (the Japanese dont really elongate vowels like we do)
