I've been wracking my frigging brain and searching the net trying to remember a game my buddy and I were talking about... What brought it up was me getting in trouble for an enormous phone bill (like $30 -gasp!) from my parents when I downloaded it off a pirate BBS.

I thought EA made the game, but it was a scrolling shooter with a 3D-ish perspective looking at your ship from behind. You went forward, left and right across the terrain in a spaceship toward a tower.

There were various things on the ground that either added or sapped your energy. When you got to the tower you had to shoot and destroy it. At that point, the game ended and showed a quote from a famous person in history.

I usually come up with these game titles in a second, I've somehow blacked out on this one.
 
Wow, that is a nice guess based on my comments, but not the one. The game I'm talking about is same perspective, but there is no cockpit surround on the screen. You move forward in the same way and everything though.

Can you think of other games like this? Its very similar!
 
Thought that'd be it for sure.

Skyfox is by EA but it has a cockpit surround like 1st person.

Got it! Stealth by Br0derbund.
 
Stealth is it! Thanks so much. Not sure why I was thinking EA made it. That actually hampered my search!
