Was wondering if anyone could help me name a game. I've trawled KLOV on numerous occasions to find it but to no success. I used to play this stand up arcade cabinet on holiday in Italy in the early 90s. From the graphics I'd date it between 1983-1990 (vague I know). It's a vertically scrolling "car" game viewed from above. Standard 2 button control and joystick i.e no steering wheel. Very similar to spy hunter (http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?game_id=9742). But the car you control can take off and fly as well. You can drive or fly into powerups, guns etc...to shoot the other cars in your way. I distinctly remember one of the powerups was some kinda lawnmower style blades you cut through grass with. Sorry for the poor description and the boring nature of this post only it's driving me nuts. (the game might also be Italian hence the difficulty in finding it).
thanks!
 
Only thing I can think of is a game I used to play on the Sega Mastersystem called "Action Fighter" Not sure if it had an arcade version though.....
 
Welcome daddio- you may want to PM KLOV member "abobo" and ask him. He actually LIVES in Italy, and may know the game you are referring to.

In the meantime, I'm sure others here will keep trying to lend a hand as well.

hey guys, thanks very much for your help!! the games you mentioned are very, very similar but as the saying goes, "no cigars". I saw this game on a few seperate occasions in Italy which makes me think it is an Italian game only so I'll prob pm abobo. It's been nearly 20 years since I played on it but I'm sure I'm not imagining it!!
