Classic GameR oom HD reviews F22 INTERCEPTOR for Sega Genesis.

Released in 1991, 14 years before the actual F-22 Raptor entered United States military service, this game is a flight simulator where you pilot an F22 against various enemies in the Axis of Sega Genesis 1991 Bad Guys.

This CGRHD review of F-22 Interceptor has gameplay footage from F22 Interceptor showing this early 90's style flight game in action. Take command of the F22 in a pilot cockpit view or 3rd person chase plane perspective. It was probably a pretty cool game at the time, but playing it in 2009 is slow, jerky, sluggish and downright unplayable. The 3D environment, polygon enemies and break away missile cameras fall flat on the 16-bit Mega Drive.

This is a super affordable game cartidge to collect and play today and if you like flight sims you may enjoy this from a historical perspective, but lets all hope that the real Lockheed Martin F22 Raptor handles better than the F22 Interceptor in this Sega Genesis Megadrive game. Published by Electronic Arts. The real F22 has stealth capability and costs a lot of dough!
