    I think you might mean "1943".
    
    
280.2My thoughts about 1942HPSTEK::RHUFFThu Jun 08 1989 09:1921
    No, there is a game called 1942.  I own one.  When I bought it,
    I thought it was the 1943 version where two people could play at
    the same time.  The 1942 one isn't bad.  I forget how many levels
    there are but I know there are a lot.  I only made it to about
    level 30 or so.  The levels are pretty much the same except that
    as the higher in levels you go, the more planes you get.  Plus 
    the planes start moving faster.  In 1942 you don't attack aircraft
    carriers which I think you can in 1943.  You just shoot up planes,
    land on an aircraft carrier at the end of a level, and go to next
    level.  This game gets a little boring because it is all the same
    stuff.  Some neat things are that you can loop to avoid being killed.
    You are aloud to do this 3 times.  You can shoot a certain plane
    formation and pick up points or better shooting power.
    	If it was me I would buy the new one called 1943 which I think
    is like the arcade version.
    
    					Good luck,

    I have this game. I hate it. No variety, just shoot down planes
