[The Coop] Blue Max (8bit)
 
I am trying to remember a game i used to play and i think that i saw at abandonia (at least something inspired on that game)
it is a game like sopwith
but you play on a platform like simcity (i mean 3d buildings, the view is from top) it was quite simple. you had to complete some missions that were usually to destroy some building and some other buildings were to avoid (citizen houses and hospitals).
do anyone know what game i am talking about?:wondering:

Maybe Zone 66?

How about syndicate? ... i loved that game... except for the latest one because the 3D buildings would get in the way and block your view... same as a later simcity too... sometimes you couldnt get at fires :mad:

Zone 66 looks like, but this one wasn't so futuristic
and Skyshark looks too classic. Maybe something in between.:worried:
Imagine exactly Sindycate but instead of agents an airplaine.:idea:

Any idea?

What about "Seek and Destroy"?

If you're talking about an Isometric game, I think you might be talking about Desert Strike, where you're a "helicopter"(Spelled wrong, I know) pilot who has to destroy buildings and sometimes save people located at certain places...

Thanks a lot for your concern after 3 months!
both games look a lot like the one i am thinking of but it was not a helicopter, it was a classic airplane. Anyway, the graphics and game play is almost the same. thanks a lot anyway i will play Desert strike it look like lots of fun. :)

Kind of reminds me of Blue Max, but I'm pretty sure that's not it.

Wow Coop, thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!
It was Blue Max........since i read the name everything came to my mind and then i checked it on wikipedia and i remembered it perfectly. i also remembered that i used to play it on my Atari 600XL (my first computer :amused:)

Do you know if there is any version for DosBox or any remake of this game?

There is Blue Max: Aces Of The Great War, from 1990 by Three Sixty Pacific.
Runs fine in dosbox 0.72.

If you want to run the original, plenty ZX emus around.
