now i know this isn't relevant to the topic but in some way it is and thought i would post in here so that i wasn't making another separate thread

i too am looking to track down an old game that i used to play. give up on the other one hehe

it was a car/space ship style game. looked 3d but was 2d over head. and a bottom to top scroller and you went on different planets/terrains and collected different weapons and ammo. used to play on it for hours and completed it so many times but it was a game for me that had replay value

thats about as much info as i can give im afraid.

year. pfffffft late 80s early 90s i guess!

any way hope some one can help if not then i will shut up and be quiet again

That could be a number of different games?!

One that comes to mind though if it was a mix of cars and space/air stuff would be Swiv?

SWIV a good shout, any idea what format Cranium, PC? Amiga? etc

oh yeah sorry completely forgot the format was a pc game. and well it was more car ish ey! only details i can remember is you were driving like on a road you had to follow and it looked like it was above sky scrapers and what have you .yet had a space feel too it . and for some reason keep thinking it started with a letter at the end of the alphabet . z or something .

ps its not swiv.

Z might be too late at 1996 though.
