Space Firebird -- A Lost Arcade Classic

During Spring Break, I had a chance to check out Free Play Arcade in Richardson (north of Dallas), which is about 45 minutes from my house. I was surprised to discover that they had a game called Space Firebird, which I had never played before, but had read about in Classic Gamer Magazine #4. It's a quirky "slide-and-shoot" game, and my son and I had a lot of fun playing it. I'm glad I finally had a chance to check it out.
