Basic gameplay mechanics combine with real-world charisma to form the most solid Dreamcast flight simulator seen to date.
-
AllDreamcastIf historical accuracy isn't a big deal for you and you're willing to put up with an occasional boring mission, Iron Aces is worth a look.
-
If you like your flight sims more action-oriented, suit up and get ready to fly.
-
Daily RadarThe game simply and consistently provides competency in large doses, and emerges as the Dreamcast's best, most mindlessly fun plane shooter.
-
Great-looking models of some of the coolest planes ever made. Easy to jump right in and start blasting.
-
The cookie-cutter missions, and standard presentation hurt the game, but they certainly don't make it unplayable. Solid title.
-
Great mission structure, easy to learn gameplay and of course tons of classic WWII era planes to blow out of the sky.
-
A game that's confused about where its heart lies, leaving you with a smattering of mildly entertaining dogfights and bombing runs interwoven with long bouts of boredom.
-
If the steep learning curve has you hollering "Mayday!" a little too often, you can always switch sides and play as a Japanese pilot—and plan a little do-it-yourself Pearl Harbor.
-
Much to my disappointment, Iron Aces turns out to be a really great idea dragged way the hell down by far too many bad design decisions.
-
It isn't the prettiest thing out there, and there are a few rough edges here and there when it comes to bombing and the like, but otherwise, it's a decent simulation that'll have you cheering as you attack Japanese and German bases.
