Eco Fighters, known in Japan as Ultimate Ecology (アルティメット エコロジー?), is an arcade game released by Capcom on the CPS-2 arcade system board on December 1993. The game is a horizontal shooter, where the player controls a ship with a rotating gun. As suggested by both its titles, the game has an "eco-friendly" theme. It was also developed by the same team from two Mega Man arcade titles, The Power Battles and The Power Fighters.
Capcom re-released Eco Fighters for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox in 2006 as part of the Capcom Classics Collection Vol. 2 and Capcom Classics Collection Reloaded for the PSP. The game is also playable on the GameTap online service.
Famous quotes containing the words eco and/or fighters:
“There is a constant in the average American imagination and taste, for which the past must be preserved and celebrated in full-scale authentic copy; a philosophy of immortality as duplication. It dominates the relation with the self, with the past, not infrequently with the present, always with History and, even, with the European tradition.”
—Umberto Eco (b. 1932)
“All fighters are prostitutes and all promotors are pimps.”
—Larry Holmes (b. 1949)
