F-117 Night Storm - Genesis - Campaign - Full Playthrough

This combat flight sim came out in 1993 and was developed by Rare for Electronic Arts. It's exclusive to the Genesis / Mega Drive.

You pilot an F-117 stealth plane and go on bombing raids with the occasional dog fight. It's split into a series of operations that take place in trouble spots around the world from 1982 to 1996. Some of it is based on real world conflicts, like Operation Desert Storm, but there are some fictional scenarios too, like a "future" war with North Korea.

This was an ambitious game for the system, featuring large open environments, 3D polygons, full 360° movement, advanced (for the time) flight physics, a damage system affecting how the plane operates, digital speech and a mission editor. All that came at a price, with a frame-rate in the single digits, but if you can handle that it's just about playable. Use your imagination and it's actually quite an immersive experience.
