| | | Very bare-bones WWII-era horizontal shooter of the old two-button shoot/drop-bomb combination ala Gradius or something. Bomb powerups spice things up a bit, turning your prop-plane's normal bombs in to larger bombs, volleys of missles, funky cluster-bomb type things, and so forth.
All well and good, and the waves of air and ground opponents during the levels aren't bad, even if they and the levels don't look like much. Sound is mediocre at best. The bosses downright suck though, seeming to take an unlimited amount of damage while releasing their tracking bullet pattern over and over (maybe I'm just shooting wrong) and then flying back off the screen. Cue next level. Woot!
Is it just me, or does it strike anyone else as odd that a Japanese company made a game called "The Freedom Fighter" about an aircraft whose main role in history was that of enemy to their own country's military? Interesting. |

P-47: The Freedom Fighter PC Engine game HuCARD only. US Seller Tested & Working
~ ~ ~
This is the game "P-47: The Freedom Fighter" for the Japanese PC Engine game system ("PCE"). Includes the actual game HuCARD only--none of the original packaging is included.
HuCARD only. The HuCARD has some minor scratches and markings on it. I tested the HuCARD and it played with no problems.
Please note that this is the Japanese version of the game, requiring a Japanese PC Engine system for play; it will NOT play in a western TurboGrafx-16 system.
If the winning bid is $80 or more I will upgrade the shipping to USPS Priority Mail at no charge--the shipping will remain free, just faster.
Bids on this item do NOT require a payment method. |
