Ok, memory is slowly returning.....It's none of the games you have thought of though. I'm thinking it was a plane.....over a cityscape. Not space. Could have been modern, maybe a hint of futuristic. I only played about one level before I got shot down about 10 years ago so give me a break here . It looked alot like the 19XX machine Ze_ro found. I thought it was taller though.

That intro has stuck in my mind for years and it's really the main piece I remember. It would most likely have to have a been a US release since I played it at Pizza Hut.
