After Burner Climax Announced For Xbox 360, PS3
Sega Europe has officially announced the existence of a home console version of After Burner Climax, the awesome arcade game that sees you jet through locations at high speed while shooting the crap out of enemy fighter planes. The game will hit Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network in Spring 2010.

The game was originally released in arcades back in 2006, by legendary developers Sega-AM2. You'll be pleased to know that the studio is working on the XBL and PSN port as well, according to the Sega Europe blog entry, so we're not likely to get anything lost in translation.

After Burner Climax is an update of the 1980s classic After Burner, implementing a new 'Climax' mode that slows down time for a brief while to easily dodge bullets and line up your shots. It's very, very good. Watch the trailer for the game below.
