Burning Force is a 1989 third-person shooter arcade game developed and published by Namco. The game is notable for its extensive use of line scrolling to create the illusion of a three-dimensional playfield and for its lighthearted tone and synth-rock soundtrack.

Pretty okay rail shooter, though the perspective frequently makes things a little difficult, at times more so than some of its contemporaries like Space Harrier (though it runs better than II). Final boss sucks also. Probably not so bad to pick up and play, but nothing anyone would really be missing out on.
Playing Through My Evercade Collection Part 6: Namco vol 2
Ending the time with Namco on the Evercade with whats a pretty fun, if light faux 3D shooter that somehow pulls the effects off better than SEGA's own efforts in that department. Is it a great game? Not really. Its missing some flair, some art, some gameplay mixing to really make the whole thing sing. Is it fun for quick goes? Yeah sure. Thank the lord for save states.
