Get ready to take part in the greatest helicopter battle of the century with THUNDER BLADE, the SEGA arcade hit!

You're the Gunship Gladiator. You fly the Thunder Blade chopper. Some say you're unstoppable. This mission will put you to the test!

The enemy has invaded your country. That makes you mad. So you're going to stop them... all by yourself! In cities... over deserts and oceans... in caves and through refineries... you're cutting loose with your cannons and dropping air-to-surface missiles from your skids.

They've got tanks, airpower and incredible super fortresses. But you have guts, a taste for glory... and the meanest fightin' copter in the sky!

There's a great game here just waiting to bust out. However, even the decent graphics can't hide that it has some dodgy collision detection.

This shoot 'em up series for the Genesis got a a lot of attention when it came out. It's your basic blast-any-thing-that-moves sci-fi side-scrolling shooter, but with a reputation for gaming excellence. Fairly decent R-Type clones that gets better as the series advances. Decent weapons, impressive graphics, intense gameplay.

Thunder Force 2, is the first game in the series for the G/MD and one of the few sequels that incorporated its ancestor into itself - the top-down down sequences are reminiscent of Bosconian, and the side-scrolling sequences smack strongly of R-Type.

Thunder Spirits is a scrolling shooter video game and is part of the Thunder Force series.

Story:
A super-powered starship is under attack, and the pilot has to maneuver it over all sorts of terrain to make it out alive. Eight intergalactic stages make up the action in this fierce test of strength and agility. You'll have lots of powerful weapons to help you along the way, but firestorms and dangerous enemies should provide ample challenges to keep you on the edge of your seat. Just when you think you've made it through a level, you'll encounter gruesome boss characters that'll make you wish you were already dead. It's going to be one heck of a battle, but if you can buckle down and use your head, you might just live to tell about it.

Gameplay:
There are eight levels in Thunder Spirits, each consisting of the ship battling numerous enemies while side-scrolling, usually with a "mini-boss" about halfway through the level. Then, at the end of each level, a boss (consisting of one or two enemies) appears, which must be defeated before preceding to the next level. Throughout the level, the ship can pick up "Weapon upgrades"; and the player is able to switch between any of up to five weapons at any time.

Based on the live action film released in 2004 (which in turn was based on the 1960s series starring marionettes), Thunderbirds stars Alan, Tin-Tin, and Fermat, three children whose guardians are part of the International Rescue team. The player takes control of all three children as they go through training and are then forced to travel around the world to save user of International Rescue from an evil villain known as The Hood.

The game takes place in locales such as the International Rescue island, Africa, and even outer space. Each of the three characters has his or her own unique abilities that the player must use to solve puzzles and advance through a level. Alan has strength and jumping ability, Tin-Tin has telekinetic powers that are used to move objects, and Fermat can hack computers and roll through holes. While the majority of the gameplay is primarily composed of solving puzzles from an overhead view, there are also flight action sequences where the player can fly one of the many vehicles known as the Thunderbirds.

Terrorism has reached new heights. AATOM (Atomic Age Terrorist Organization of Miracali) has constructed their own nuclear power plant, and threaten the world with atomic terror. The world powers have decided to initiate operation THUNDERCADE to stop AATOM. Equipped with a high-performance combat motorcycle, sidecar cannons, and backed by a precision B-7 bomber, you set out on the dangerous mission.

The player controls a motorcycle traveling through four distinct areas; the city, the base, the woodlands and the fortress which contains the final objective which is the nuclear power plant. The motorcycle shoots bullets and can be upgraded by finding powerups which add sidecars to the motorbike, which in turn adds more firepower. Also, you can call in a limited amount of airstrikes to help you clear the screen of enemy tanks and troops.
