    Play and enjoy After Burner Climax for what it is: a thrill ride.
  2. Beyond all of the enhancements and extras, After Burner Climax’s bargain price of 800 Microsoft Points ($9.99) makes it a must own.
  3. It’s bold and brash, and for as long as your interest holds, pretty good fun too.
  4. Afterburner Climax is a great, and reasonably priced way to play the arcade game in the comfort of your own home, but it's a remarkably simple game that will leave some people wanting a lot more.
  5. After Burner Climax is an old-school arcade game. Your motivation is high scoring only, and that‘s it. Playing through all levels takes you about 30 to 40 minutes, so don‘t expect too much.
  6. The problem with playing an oldie like After Burner nowadays is its depth: There's hardly any to be found.

    This is the classic Sega that I love -- bold, bright, 60fps addictive action. Love it.

Those looking for a serious flight sim, or something like Ace Combat may want to look elsewhere. Sure the game is short, but its highly replayable and just darn fun. Expand
