Introduction of Game

It is a STG game in NES which is created by KONAMI, different from Gradius or Zanac. It is "First person ", you are in the plane. It looks like that you are controlling plane. How exciting! But this game is very hard. If you have heard JAMES ROLFE’s story, you will know this game is one nightmare in our childhood, especially when landing

Skill when flying

Up-down-left-right,these control position; B (always)-fire; B (as some frequency)-use missile;left or right(as some frequency)-make aerial acrobatics, it’s important skill; A-speed up.

Manipulates luck

This can be understood easily. I make enemy in position what I want by control plane. I also can meet thunder and lightning which I want in stage3, because it can help me reduce lag.

Uses death as shortcut

Although I don't aim for fastest time, I think it is better if I can reduce a little time without reducing entertainment. I use death as shortcut when landing (in stage 1,2); But I succeed landing in last stage, because I want to completes this run completely.

Clarification for those who don't know who James Rolfe is: Xipo is referring to Angry Videogame Nerd's Top Gun review.

Firing constantly is unTASlike, but adds to the farce, as does crashing the plane. The game is a bit too long for what it is- a ridiculous POS- but it was funny, so my feeling is mostly positive. I think I'll refrain from voting.

I am gald if someone can post a message to tell me something regardless of whatever you vote^_^ Do you think this game is not suitable for tas or I should change its style to "Aims for the fastest time"?

The game isn't great, but less interesting things have been published, so Top Gun probably has a chance. A "fastest time" run wouldn't be as entertaining, IMO.

A very so-so game, but the run was entertaining enough. Yes vote. I had no idea you got to shoot down the space shuttle at the end!

Fascinating, and one of the more unique runs I've seen here in a fair bit. Hypnotic and fast paced -- I especially liked the trees in level two and the lightning in level three. Also, try playing this game to truly appreciate the movie, though I thought it was absorbing without having played it first. Good show Xipo.

I cancel it and plan to submite another run of this game. This time is "Aims for fastest time" & "Aims for 100% Kills ".I will make it looks more entertaining.

Did TASVideos Grue have to be absurd? It would be great to see a 1P VS run.

Oh my. I was like "wow", then "I need to puke", then both at the same time. I really loved it ^^
