Request for help naming an old arcade game

by dj.klassic@[EMAIL PROTECTED] May 20, 2008 at 03:29 PM

Hello

as per the subject line I wondered if anyone could suggest the name
for a couple of old arcade games I used to play.  Both were around the
Mr Doh, Nemisis, Ikari Warrior era in the UK - when a credit was 10p
and both controlled with the standard joystick and probably just two
buttons.  Also pretty sure both were single player only.

Game 1:
- Top down view.
- You played a man but would spend most of the time in a car - a dark
coloured sports type car.
- You could get out of the car if the car was near exploding but if
you did not find a new car soon you would be dead preety quick by
superior enemies also driving cars - mainly orange.
- The setting was desert like with dwellings at the side of the scrren
and most times you would travel south to north direction.
- Your and the enemies bullets were large orange sprites.

I cannot remeber the ultimate aim of the game or if it had end of
level bosses.  Any help appreciated.


Game 2
- You were a spaceship and you viewed it from behind.
- The background of the game was actual film footage.
- Small enemy spaceships I think being graphics but it had a big
mothership (Like the one at beginnign of star wars) that was part of
the film and you had to destroy - all seem ed a bit random for hit
detection.

Appreciate the details are scant and quite vague but after trying and
failing to find these on the internet I turn to your goodselves or
help.

Cheers

K
