			Is on Saturn games similar series Ace Combat for PSX?

			Ace combat for Saturn game similar there is. Is "Wing Arms" called it. The force be with you.

			And maybe you can add Sky Target.

			Sky Target has a whole different gameplay. It has more in common with After Burner, Panzer Dragoon and StarFox than with Ace Combat. It's a on-the-rails shooter, whereas Ace Combat and Wing Arms are dogfighting-based shooters, where you can fly wherever you want in the map, and need to pursue enemies and stuff. Now I recall another game: Darklight Conflict. I never got my hands in the Saturn version (I heard the graphics are impressive), but it plays the same way: thrust the ship, turn around enemies, get in their tails, shot them, move onto next.

			I have Darklight Conflict on the PSX; it is more styled like Wing Commander, but it is a free-flowing sim like Ace Combat.

			What about Sonic Wings? It took me this long to realize this one had nothing to do with Sonic the hedgehog.

			Sonic Wings is a shmup.

			Darklight Conflict has a Saturn release to, and it looks fantastic with all transcluencies and light effects exactly as good as on the PS. Also, you might want to try Independence Day for Saturn. The game is ok, but it has some problems. The two player splitscreen mode is very fun though.

			Aren't dogfighting games, by definition, shmups?

		CHAZumaru °_°		May 12, 2003
			y'a know what I meant.

			I would have thought Wing Arms (very cool game BTW) was more of a combat simulator than shump.

		Taelon		May 12, 2003
			"shump"? anyway, yeah CHAZ, I do... regular top-down one-lone-hero-vs-the-mighty-enemy-forces shooters on one hand... and the let's-be-cute-little-planes-and-circle-around-each-other-while-never-losing-control-of-the-plane-even-in-endless-loops kind of game... Gotcha.

			So I made a typo, big deal. *shrug*

		Taelon		May 14, 2003
			And when did I make a big deal out of it? It was cute that's all EDIT ... Right ... I'm beginning to see why I got stamped with that resident nit-picker moniker ...
