    Developed and published by Sega in 1987
    * Updated 21/12/2019 **
    Watch my new After Burner II video in 1440p: • After Burner II Longpl...
    Clearly influenced by the huge success of (the sadly deceased) Tony Scott's film, Top Gun, Sega developed and released this iconic arcade-shooter in 1987. Despite what the name suggests, After Burner II is really a revised version of the original game, introducing a throttle control, additional levels and gameplay tweaks.
    Strapping the player into the cockpit of the iconic fighter jet, the F-14 Tomcat, the game is a retina-melting, synapse-frying experience where the objective is to shoot down as many enemy targets as possible, whilst not getting shot down in return.
    Your plane is equipped with twin, rapid-firing vulcan cannons and an extensive supply of heat-seeking missiles. Whilst the gun is capable of shooting down targets, the sheer speed of the game makes reliance on the gun difficult if you're looking to rack up a high score, whereas missiles can be much more effective, providing you manage to establish a target lock. Moving the plane's targeting reticle over an enemy plane will initiate a target lock; any missile fired once locked will home in an take out the target.
    Enemy jets appear in the distance and will launch their own barrage of missiles at your plane. It takes quick reactions to avoid the oncoming fire, but is also doubly tricky if you want to try and shoot down the oncoming plane as well; all to often, the game becomes more a case of simply avoiding enemy missiles than shooting anything down. The threat can also come from behind as jets attempt to shoot you down with guns and missile locks; the only way to survive is to fly fast and fly well!
    Every so often, a supply plane will appear and will initiate a mid-air fuel and ammo transfer to resupply you with missiles, which looks extremely cool and also gives you a chance to catch your breath and to regain some feeling in your trigger finger.
    Other stages remove any air-born threat and, instead, require the player to fly along a narrow desert canyon whilst strafing a succession of military supply tents, hangars and radio antenna. The trick here is to avoid crashing into the cliffs at the side of the screen or flying into the radio towers.
    Based on Sega's X-Board platform, the game boasts some truly remarkable sprite scaling technology that came as close as possible to delivering a 3D experience using 2D technology. Even today, the scaling effect is remarkably effective and is still great to look at.
    The game also boasts some truly excellent sound and music. The rock soundtrack features some great guitar and drum samples and really was ahead of it's time for 1987. The gun fire, explosions and sampled speech effects are extremely clear and really add to the the game's atmosphere.
    Of course, perhaps the most memorable feature about this game has to be the fantastic rotating cockpit cabinet and flight stick; something that can't be experienced through emulation, unfortunately.
    Whilst the game is certainly a lot of fun, I think that the technical lavishness sometimes gets in the way of the fun and makes things awkward. For example, the player's missiles leave a big vapour trail that makes it incredibly difficult to see anything in front of your plane and makes it difficult to see where/when enemy missiles are approaching. The game is difficult enough without having your view obscured most of the time.
    Even so, there's no denying that After Burner II is one of the greatest and most iconic arcade games ever made and is a sad reminder of the days when Sega was a dominating force in both games hardware and software design.

    That take off from the air strip @04:10. Don't know what's better, the guy on bike pulling a Tom Cruise, or hitting Mach 3 before you're 100 meters off the deck! Four backgrounds with full affine transformation, 256 scaled and rotated sprites, 4000+ colors, and all of it at rock solid 60FPS. Thirty years later that's still heavy hardware. If you never experienced this on release and took a ride in that moving sit down cabinet, you just don't even know....

  • @dmac7128

    The game was developed in 1986. The first arcade perfect conversion (at 60 fps, the Saturn conversion was at 30 fps) came out on the Dream cast. some 15 years later.
    Goes to show that the Sega superscalar games has some serious hardware. The game was actually 2D and simulated SD with sprite scaling But the effect was totally convincing.

    Are you playing with or without some sort of God mode? If you are playing the game normally, your skill is incredible. The best games of Afterburner I've ever seen. Completing the whole game with only one ship is out of this world. It reminds me of the days when I could complete Space Harrier with just one man.

  • @LivingMidnight
    @LivingMidnight 2 года назад +1

    Firing your AAMs in this game obscures what's happening in front of you. Most importantly, the enemy AAMs and their trajectories are covered up, making it much harder to avoid them.
    Small squadrons of enemy fighters come in waves, launch AAMs then go and don't come back. Consequently, the only strategic reason to destroy them is to prevent them from firing AAMs at all, which is only usefully effective if every fighter in a squadron is quickly destroyed, which is almost impossible except in a few rare waves!
    Most of the time the best strategy is not to fire your AAMs at all and concentrate instead on avoiding incoming enemy AAMs. Unfortunately, that's much less fun, which makes this game feel broken to me. Have fun or win? That's not a good trade off.
