Description
A fighter pilot completes varied aerial missions against enemy forces in this Konami Dreamcast shooter. Published by Konami, released in Japan in September 1999. Aerial shooter with wide aircraft selection, combat and escort missions, polished flight visuals. Japanese edition.
Available at the Dreamcast launch in 1999, Konami's aerial shooter aims at a broad audience rather than simulation. Missions move fast, the handling stays loose and buying new planes between sorties gives a real sense of progression. The readable dogfights and steady pace make it enjoyable in short sessions. The flat scenery and uneven difficulty show, yet fans of accessible air combat will find an honest alternative to Ace Combat that still holds up for an evening.
