Fair use rationale for Image:Flying shark.jpg
[edit]
Image:Flying shark.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Twin Cobra
[edit]This is very similar to Twin Cobra. In fact they could almost be the same game but with different graphics. Were they developed jointly or was one a modification of the other? 2fort5r (talk) 19:11, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
- The previous also applies to Truxton, though that was released a year later. 2fort5r (talk) 19:37, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
- it's called "genres", but the two games were made by the same company
- Twin Cobra has more in common with Tiger Heli than Flying Shark though, if you're looking for Flying Shark's sequel or whatever, look to Fire Shark —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.177.21.40 (talk) 00:37, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
Fire up MAME and play all three titles. You'll be surprised how similar they are. The other two games could be retitled Flying Shark with Helicopters and Flying Shark in Space. 2fort5r (talk) 21:53, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
Art
[edit]Why does the Box art portray a P-40 Warhawk if the game features a biplane? 2fort5r (talk) 19:21, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
- because whoever the hell drew the Amstrad boxart is an idiot, this would happen a lot for games ported into other countries; "blah biplane is (key word) probably boring let's add this completely unrelated plane"
- see also the original boxart for Megaman 1 and 2 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.177.21.40 (talk) 00:40, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
