In the same vein as Bionic Commando Re-Armed and Street Fighter Super Duper Retro Remix HD Special, Capcom is bringing back another classic in style. This time, the chalice has been passed to fan favourite top-down shooter, 1942.

Taking locales and designs from World War II, but with a Capcom-brand style pinned on, 1942 Joint Strike has striking 3D backdrops for old-school 2D gameplay.
Featuring local or online co-op play, the titular “Joint Strike” is a duo manoeuvre, combining fire power for a huge attack.

Developed by Backbone Entertainment (yuck), Joint Strike will be available for Xbox Live Arcade (800 points) and PSN (approx. £8.49) in the Summer of 2008.
