Would be awesome to find it though. I remember dreading and avoiding computers when I was a kid and my mom finally convinced me to try to play. I didn't even know what playing computer was - I thought it was a job. When I finally tried it I got hooked forever. Today she regrets it  |
Heh, I know what you mean. The first introduction to computers and games was an amazing experience for me, like discovering something impossible, like it turns out Santa Claus is real. Worst thing that ever happened to me, addicted for life.
The airplane game, it sounds a bit like River Raid.
Were the graphics something like that? Pinpointing the actual system you played it on could help somewhat, if it was an IBM PC or something older (like an Atari 2600 console or a Commodore 64 computer, attached to a TV or a monitor etc.)
EDIT:
I found the first game, it's P.O.W. Prisoners of War by SNK (
http://www.mobygames.com/game/nes/pow-prisoners-of-war ), the song you remember is from the third level, and yes, it's a forest/jungle level. There's also a chopper at the end of the first level.
