Nov 7, 2016This game makes you feel euphoric and disappointed at the same time. Flying is amazing, but the story line is so short and does not do the mysterious setting any justice. A pity, cause Paris is formidable.
-
Oct 19, 2016A fun game that lacks depth but makes up for it in with charm and the fact anyone can play and enjoy it. [Tested with Oculus Rift]

Oct 18, 2016A nice concept that fails in offering a deeper experience that justifies its price.

Oct 18, 2016Eagle Flight initially sounded like a kooky concept to me, but I can’t remember the last time I had this much fun playing capture-the-flag. The game has a surprising amount of depth, and it’s highly competitive as a result. There were multiple occasions when I couldn’t help but scream when an enemy eagle killed me as I was a beak’s length away from victory. And while the graphics aren’t amazing, just being able to quickly zip around Paris can be breathtaking. If you’re looking for a really fun multiplayer VR game, you should fly like an eagle.

Jan 17, 2017Eagle Flight leaves me with mixed feelings. The first time you play it will knock your socks off, but you soon find a game with a lack of depth.

Nov 9, 2016Is it a must-have VR title? No. But there are precious few of those. It is a pretty decent VR title though, with a strong conceit and pleasant scenery. That makes it notable enough. To be honest, what it really needs is support for sticking your arms out at your side and flapping around like Big Bird, but perhaps the later Vive version and/or Oculus Touch support might let us live out our Michael Keaton mid-life crisis fantasies.

Nov 9, 2016If you’re looking for novel virtual reality experiences, I do think you should check out Eagle Flight to get a sense of how much fun it can be to soar in VR. After playing it, though, I feel like I’d really enjoy a game with these precise mechanics, but without constraints: a more free-form, less demanding play style that would accentuate the freedom of flight—not detract from it.
