Horribly less appealing than the original. Tomer Gabel Bronze Star Contributing Member (4491) 2.75 Stars2.75 Stars2.75 Stars2.75 Stars2.75 Stars
A solid shooter, if somewhat repetitive. RmM (66) unrated

Trivia

During installation, Firehawk gives you the option of either drawing or not drawing the backgrounds. On slower computers, not drawing the backgrounds can speed up gameplay quite a bit.

During gameplay and opening/closing credits, Firehawk features quite a few different songs. By selecting music at the title screen, you can listen to most of these songs.
