A-JAX <エー・ジャックス>
発売年:1987.12
開発元:コナミ工業 発売元:コナミ
ジャンル:シューティング
コントローラ:8方向レバー+3ボタン
システムボード:専用基板
CPU構成[KONAMI, M6809, Z80] 音源チップ[YM2151, 007232 (2)]
コナミより登場したトップビューと、3D視点のステージが交互に展開するのが特徴のシューティングゲーム。トップビューのステージでは超音速ヘリ「トム・タイガー」、3Dステージではジェット戦闘機「ジェリー・マウス」を操作して敵を撃ち落としていく。自機は8方向レバーで操作、空中弾、地上弾、スーパーウエポンの発射にボタンを使用する。全8ステージ。ヒット作にはなったが、当時のコナミにしては作品の完成度はそれほど高くない。また、開発時はレバーの発射ボタンやコンパネが反動するコクピットタイプの大型筐体の使用を予定していたが、結局は通常筐体用として発売されている。
ストーリー:
西暦2007年、人類は全面戦争に突入した。核保有超大国とエイリアン軍団が手を結び、宇宙最強の軍事国家を築こうというのだ。最悪の事態を迎え、国連は遂に最終命令を下した。「A-JAX出撃せよ」。

Ajax (c) 1987 Konami.
The player has been issued an emergency order. He must save the earth from being conquered by enemy forces. He climbs into his helicopter and prepares for intense aerial combat. Shooting oncoming enemy aircrafts and bombing the enemies below, he tries to make his way through the different stages to reach the enemy base. When he finishes the first stage, he is transported to his next mission by ab aircraft carrier. He hops into his jet fighters, tanks, ships, helicopters, and aircraft carriers. The player must also be aware of unseen enemies and surprise attacks.
Different kinds of power ups can be obtained throughout the game. These include:
'3' 3-Way: Bullets fire forward, right, and left.
'L' Laser: Player can shoot double lasers.
'T' Triple: Missiles are fired that spread out three ways in front.
'V' Vulcan: Rapid bullets are fired in the directions controlled.
'B' Bomb: Air to ground missles which can be upgraded twice.
'O' Orbital: A small drone using the same weaponry as the helicopter which can be otained by clearing a special formation of little red fighters.
There is an additional super weapon that destroys all the enemies on the screen at once. However, use of this weapon is limited.
Ajax contains 2 different types of stages : 2-D and 3-D. In the 2-D stage, the player controls a helicopter. In the 3-D stage, the player commands a jet fighter.
Ajax features some impressive graphics filled with rotation and scaling effects (some may get a little dizzy, though!), a solid soundtrack and excellent game control. Highly recommended for any shoot'em up enthusiast!
