Don't bother!

A Customer from Birmingham, England, 30th July, 2007

Terrible flight pyshics, especially using defualt control set up, and boring missions. Did anyone actually play test this game? But then the Ace Combat series are some of my favourite games of all time, maybe i expected too much of this game. Personally i still wouldn't bother though, there are much more interesting ways to keep yourself entertained!

underated gem!

A Customer from Hove, 11th August, 2008

I just happened upon this game by chance - can't even remember what drew me to it, but I've had a great time playing it and will probably buy it (I think you can get it for as little as £15 now!). The graphics are surprisingly pleasing, with some nice touches. The controls are great once you're used to them. Sometimes it felt like the nunchuk couldn't quite handle what i wanted it to do, but that was probably me jerking it about... and even times when it didn't feel too responsive i couldn't help telling myself 'well... i'm certain the controls for a spitfire weren't as smooth as WW2 pilots would've liked', so in a way it kind of added to the experience for me! There's plenty to do and lots of unlockables - the only thing i didn't get to do was multiplayer (can't wait until my son's old enough to play these games with me!!)

Pretty good

simonwien from from Bedford, 25th July, 2008

Well I must admit I really liked this game it was fun and once you got used to flying the planes its I think its quite realistic. The scenarios are good but my only 2 down side of the game is even though when you crash or fail a mission it saves it and you can start again from the last check point and at the end of a mission of course you go to another mission, but say you want to end in the middle of a mission you have to start that mission from the start I was up until 12:30am one night wanting to finish the mission as I didn't want to start it all over again and have to do it all again. Also when you start from the a check point the radio conversation gets boring repeating the same you just heard. Other than that I will probably buy this game for the Wii.

Looks great

Visually stunning in the look of the landscape, the plans and how it's all animated. The controls aren't quite sensitive enough. I have nothing to compare this to so this is a benchmark for me.
