Aero Wings

"Aerowings makes a crash landing as one of the worst games ever"

This game is only for a small few , its very hard to learn and very hard on the stomach (try learning how to play this 1 hour straight). I don't know how anybody could like this game and I going to tell you why its so bad.

Graphics- 7
Not that bad , although the graphics get kinda boring since they show up over and over again. The planes look real enough but if you play some stages at night you will be lost because its very dark.You might get sick from flying or something like that , I just don't play this game since doing alot of the stunts make me dizzy , but thats not for all people. I also like to add that the planes look wonderful but the boards/levels are very dull and drab.

Sound- 5
The sound is ok , not good or bad. Just like the graphics some of the music kinda drab and dull , but its not so bad since you its so dull it won't bother you. One or two songs are good though. The sound effects are ok , everything is here plane crashing , lifting off sounds and all.

Gameplay- Negative 1

Yes the game play is so bad that it gets a negative 1 , you might think thats harsh but when you play this game you'll understand. All you do its pick a plane and fly it in the field , doing spirals and rolls. No shooting bullets or taking down planes with missiles , just you flying around going up and down , a couple of spirals here and there. Thats it , around nine boards of you flying around. There are a few modes for you to do nothing in various. Blue Impluse Missions (BIM) , learn how to do *special* flying techniques. Sky Mission Attack (SIA) , do flying stunts and gain points to earn new planes. Free Flight , do anything you want by yourself or with team members. Multiplayer is the funniest part of the game , go flying around doing whatever you want , try crashing into your friends (funny stuff).

Control- 3

The control is very hard to learn and even after you learn it what you going to do , all you do is just fly around , no action.

Aerowings is probably one of the worst games on dreamcast and only saving grace is its graphics , even though almost every game on dreamcast has better graphics. I recommend if your going to buy this game you rent it first. Only hardcore flying stunt gamers will like this. I rate this a 2 out of a possible 10. I also like to add you can't shoot anything in this game its not a fighter jet game , its just regular flying.
