    Default Trying to find name of 80's space shooter.

    I'm trying to find the name of a game I remember playing back in the 80's at the arcades. It was a space game that had open field game play (like Time Pilot 84). You flew over ocean and land and shot various types of ships. I remember one type of ship was shaped like a "u" and would drop power-ups if destroyed. It was made by one of the big game makers (I want to say Namco or Sega but I'm not sure) and I remember it being quite popular.
    Wherever politics tries to be redemptive, it is promising too much. Where it wishes to do the work of God, it becomes not divine, but demonic.

    No, it's not Xevious (although I love that game). This game had a 360 degree range of movement that went on indefinitely.
