Not many of us have the good fortune of taking a soak in a hot tub time machine and waking up in 1986, the year the fighter jet pilot officially became the raddest job on the planet. Fewer still know the whereabouts of a decent arcade that has an
After Burner Climax cabinet, the 2006 revival of Sega's classic air combat franchise. Thankfully,
in less than a month, all of us can experience the glory of stopping a nuclear inferno from within the cockpit.
Sega of America has dated the Xbox Live Arcade release of
After Burner Climax for April 21, followed by an April 22 release on PSN. [Update: Sega Europe Ltd. has confirmed the same release dates for Europe.] The publisher did not announce a price for the downloadable title, but the Japanese version was
previously priced at the $10 equivalent.
