All reviewsAfter Burner Climax2006
5 out of 5 starsUp until this point, Sega hasn’t provided a convincing version of their After Burner franchise for home consoles. The problem has always been that much of the appeal for an After Burner game is in the specialized arcade cabinet, in which the swiveling seat provides feedback based upon what’s happening on the screen.

Within that year, a straight port was announced for Xbox Live Arcade, with plans to release the downloadable title…

All articlesThoughts on David Jaffe's latest outburst
Mar 18, 2010
David Jaffe's apparently suggesting Sony sue Microsoft due to Scrap Metal's title being too close to Twisted Metal... Not sure how much merit this lawsuit could have. I spent about 40 minutes at PAX talking to both developer's and they assured me they'd never heard of Twisted Metal, let alone had ever played the game. The reference points they brought up were classic arcade top-down racers, gam...
