    This game has gotten some undeserved bad reviews. It is one of the last playable Helicopter battle sims, with the exception of Apache AH64 Assault. I have both of these titles and they are both good and fun to play. Comanche 4 doesn't have a long learning curve like the old Janes flight games and everyone I have gifted it to have only praise for it.

I have both of these titles and they are both good and fun to play. Comanche 4 doesn't have a long learning curve like the old Janes flight games and everyone I have gifted it to have only praise for it. It isn't a New Title so the graphics aren't perfect, but if you want a fun game that gets challenging as it progress's then Buy It you won't be disappointed. It also has a fun multiplayer!… Expand

    As a sequel to Comanche 3, it's true eye candy and more action-packed with more cities, buildings and so many enemies engaging you at the same time (drone swarm mission). But it certainly falls short of being as militarily realistic as Comanche 3 which requires a lot of critical thinking and planning because it is just more difficult.

But it certainly falls short of being as militarily realistic as Comanche 3 which requires a lot of critical thinking and planning because it is just more difficult. Regardless of its faults, this is a thoroughly enjoyable game with plenty of fun to be had with interesting (though slightly unrealistic) missions and much faster-paced engagements. I still remember all the hype and interviews about the beautiful graphics about this game and an ATI spokesperson saying that the water effects in this game was the most visually advanced in world at the time. Ofcourse it was!… Expand

    For the 2001 it was the best action-air combat based game in the gaming industry and it was like it for really long. If you never played it, try it yourself.

    It reintroduces the sometimes forgotten concept of a 10-15 minute learning curve, and has done away with a 200-page flight manual on the basics of aviation.

    The missions are interesting and, let’s face it, every once in a while, it’s a cathartic blast to wade into the middle of swarms of bad guys and teach them the folly of opposing truth, justice, and the American way. [Mar 2002, p.91]

    The quality graphics, accessible interface, fun single-player and multiplayer action, and effective sound all combine to make this a very appealing release.
