Go on, admit it. Haven't you always wanted to be an anti-aircraft gunner in Pearl Harbour during World War II? Well now your plane-destroying dreams can become reality thanks to Pom Pom Gunner, an Operation Wolf-esque shoot 'em up.

Seriously, let's forget the Japlushing overtones that this game contains. Pretend the bad guys are aliens from a far-off planet invading Earth in primitive WWII fighter-lookalikes, because the game is actually pretty good. Defending your fleet against the on-rushing Japa... erm, aliens, you just have to shoot them out of the sky (remembering to watch out for your own planes as they race to intercept). Once the invasion is over, your performance is assessed and you move on to another Pacific battle for more of the same.

The only bad thing about the game (not the scenario) is that because it was programmed in America on an NTSC system, it has a strip of interference along the bottom of the screen. Just ignore it though and concentrate on the digitised sound effects and graphics.
