Need help with the name of a computer game

[paintballrulzs]

It is real old. You are this spaceship and you can pick up these icons to get better guns. You fly over the land and u see it below u. At the end of levels there is a big ship to take down. Crap someone has to know what im taking about. I had it a while ago ona a hard disk................

[Will Wood]

There's thousands of games like this..
Hard to say wich one you played. I don't really remember many of the older ones that would be on hard disk.. Actually none of them
But if you want to play something just like it... there's plenty out there
