First off, I'd like to say that I love any plane simulation game, but this game is an exception. I'll start off by saying that this game just "plane" sucks. The only upside to this game is it's vast array of weapons. Even though the game play is pretty fast it takes away from the graphics and the background pops up from no where. The most bizarre thing in this game is the power ups, they float in midair after you destroy something. Then to top it off the explosions look like red spider webs expanding.

The game play is another story. While the controls are fairly simple it takes a while for a beginners to learn them. If you go straight up you only go up to 1,000 feet even if your going 800 miles a hour. The loading tends to take a while but there's a mission briefing before it and the people are done in real life, but the people look like blocks. The worst part about it is that you cant change your view, When you boot the game up it asks you how many screen res. How do you want the detail level(low for fast game play and low graphics, medium for so-so game play and so-so graphics, and high for O.K. graphics and slow game play) and on the very bottom it asks cockpit off next to a check box but that really doesn't change anything except there's no cockpit(like it matters) but other wise there is no different view.

The bottom line: If you find this in a bargain bin for $15 bucks go for it, other wise steer clear of this title.
