Description

Afterburner, the arcade game that thrilled young and old alike when it was released. With a hydralic seat and its flight control stick with a Vulcan cannon and missiles at your command.
This was a decent conversion of Sega's arcade hit ported to the PC. The game is viewed from behind the plane with you fighting wave after wave of enemy fighters.

Trivia

During one of the take-off sequences of the game, you're followed by a small red car. It's the Ferrari from Outrun, another hit arcade game.
