    Little more than an unfortunate blip on the gaming radar. [Sept 2011, p.116]

    A few high points in the story don't make up for overly simplified and very repetitive gameplay. Any veteran of flight games will be bored senseless, and the plain look of the game will turn off casual players.

    You can play either with strangers or set up a password proteted game with friends. Yes the menu graphics are poor and the voice acting is laughable but, to my mind, it's the gameplay that counts and this is good old school arcade fun. For those that prefer more of a challenge on the controls there is a "simulation" setting with separate stick control for pitch and roll & button rudder control for yaw.

    Everyone I've introduced this to loves the mutiplayer and we've had some good competitive battles. Ignore the critics and try it for yourself - you may like it !!!    … Full Review »

Mostly nice graphics, also when the ground looks a bit bland, beautiful aircraft models, a lot of different air craft to fly and different mission types. I like the story a lot, because it is not that typical usa-patriot-hero-war-lover but a story of a protagonist, who doesn't care about the war and at first just wants to earn money, but gets dragged into the war and lives through it's horrors and contradictions and she even somehow changes sides thought the storyline. Maybe the English voice acting is bad, but the German one is not at all, it's pretty good in fact.… Full Review »

    I don't care that the story is told by voices and non-moving comic pictures: I got more stuck to it than the standard animated hero stories, because the change and development of the non-heroic heroine and her friends makes me more identify and feels more realistic how war has been to those who got caught up in it. And the missions and even airplanes are so different from one another that it is a joy. The biggest pity is the pretty short story and the pretty unpractical cockpit views which lead you to fly either from behind the plane or cockpitless front view.    … Full Review »
