Hello everyone, i had one of these for the amiga 1200 and it was really quite good, can't for the life of me remember the name. So are their any decent games of this genre around at the moment?

Don't know any recent games but the game on the amiga may have been Thunderhawk. I remember my A1200 came bundled with that and Gods. Both classic games!

yes

I have very fond memories of this on the Atari ST and Amiga. It may well be the game that the OP was trying to remember....

One copy available on Ebay from Canada.... might be worth a punt if you want to play it.

If its anything like Lock-on it will be epic and bloody hard core. Took me a weekend just working out the Radar controls on an F16.

Let us know how it is I am tempted to pick it up
