Synopsis: Gamers can push the envelope as they assume the iconic role of Maverick and step into the '80s blockbuster Top Gun. Featuring a storyline penned by the film's screenwriter Jack Epps Jr., Top Gun the game finds players joining such familiar characters as Goose, Iceman, and Slider as they defend bases and head into intense aerial dogfights. The "Campaign" mode first asks armchair aces to learn the ropes at the academy before eventually shooting down enemy fighters in missions over the Indian Ocean, while the "Horde" mode sends a continuous wave of increasingly difficult enemies at gamers. Online multiplayer fans can get into the action with up to 15 friends in "Deathmatch," "Team Deathmatch," "Top Gun," "Bombing Run," and "Capture the Flag" modes. ~ Christopher Brown, All Game Guide
