Name the game

[Maximum Triceratops]

Hello internet bros.

Me and my friend were remembering old arcade games from the 80s and mentioned a game we both played but cannot remember the name.

From what we remember - you either stood or sat in it and it was a guy with a big cannon, 3rd person 3d and he had a jet pack, end of level bosses were a dragon with a snake like body.

Anyone remember and can name it, playing on my mind

SEGA always did great arcade games! I was fond of Super hang on when I was little

Knew this was space harrier immediately.

The first time I ever used a mouse was playing space harrier on my friend's Atari ST. I'd only ever used joysticks before, on my C64 principally, and took a while to figure it out. Kept lifting it off the desk to try to move up the screen

Another one we're stuck on lol.

Helicopter game which you sat in, almost like a simulator 3rd person though. As said not arcade like but more realistic.

if it was outside of the helicopter... Desert Strike?

Thinking about it now, no it was cockpit view. Graphics were real blocky sorry for the vagueness.

Desert strike was good though, not choplifter either.

Thunderblade?

 

[Maximum Triceratops]

Neither of those lol, only other bit of info I can remember is that it a proper flight stick and a throttle on the left if I remember, you sat in it and it was enclosed with a roof etc to mimic a real cockpit.
