Policing from the skies has been used in major cities for years now, but the Garda took possession of its little "chopper" only in recent months. It will, no doubt, help track down a criminal or two over the years, but it will hardly have to cope with the kind of missions facing a pilot with the G-Police.

Far from being just an eye in the sky, your Dasa Kamov Havoc close air support gunship would be more at home on a battlefield.

It's 2089 and the government police (G-Police) is responsible for the policing of the colonies within Earth and its off-world installations.

There are 35 missions to complete, and with 14 types of weapon you won't be found wanting when it comes to defending yourself. You'll have to get to grips with the controls first (the analogue controller makes life a little easier) and they are frustrating to master. However, once you have done that, G-Police will reward your efforts. The training missions are well worth looking at first.

G-Police can be highly recommended, but the helicopter gun ship which you control is a complex flying machine. You will undoubtedly crash several times on initial flights, but not everyone will spend the time required to earn the traditional flying wings.
