Aerofighters Assault is a very fun game.It's a mix of a flight sim and a action-packed video game.Now I've read many reveiws for this great N-64 game and I see that I'm one of the few people enjoying this game.(lol)
I personally like the fact that it is easy to fly.I'm comparing it to the Flight Simulater 2000 on the computer.In Aerofighters Assault(I'll call it AF for short)you simply move the analog stick on your control pad to move and Z,A,B,and R to shoot various weapons,simple.There are some more advanced controls such as the afterburner(up C)and airbrake(down C),but compare these simple controls to Flight Sim 2000.In Flight Sim 2000 you have two remember really complex things like:left arrow key=left ailoron up and stuff like that until you realize there's about a zillion keys to press.Then there's the combos of things to press to takeoff,land,etc.I'd be in nowhere land if the game didn't have built-in lessons(I still can only figure out how to takeoff now matter how many lessons I take!).The game isn't any fun unless your a pilot.
I also enjoy the fun of the game.You get to chose your airplane and destroy enemys, save ciies from destruction,launch a space shuttle and more.Not to mention the cool rock music in the backround.
In conclusion, I must say that AF is great fun!Sure there's better games in the world but AF is one of my favorite games and it is much better than most other games.

As an aviation enthusiast, I'm always on the hunt for new flight games. It doesn't matter whether they are sims, combat games or whatever, eventually, they'll find themselves running on one of my platforms. However, when I first read the reviews for Aerofighter Assault, I decided to stay away from this release. I mean, heck, no one had a kind word for it. It's easy to get caught up in the words of wisdom written by game reviewers. We're so used to doing it with movie critics that it's become second nature. However, while reviews are written with a certain amount of objective fact, the ultimate thumbs up or thumbs down is highly subjective indeed. So, the other day, when I had the opportunity to pop an Aerofighter Assault cartridge into my trusty N64, I figured, what the heck.

Maybe it's because I'm not as a sophisticated judge of games as reviewers or maybe I'm too forgiving or maybe I just don't know any better but guess what? This game is fun! Is it the best flight or air combat sim around? No. Is it the most sophisticated? Of course, not. But it does provide the gamer with an entertaining and challenging experience. The game doesn't get caught up in extensive technical demands placed on the gamer in so many of the other flight games, yet, is challenging enough to require some practice to be able to play well. The story line is pure fiction, departing from any heavy historical or documentary references, allowing the player to enjoy the bedlam of trying to defeat the big, bad, mechanized forces of evil as well as the enemy pilots who are out to prevent your next birthday from taking place.

Okay, the music won't win a Grammy and I've seen better frame rates in other games but I haven't experienced the "unplayability" from this...The graphics are not bad and the game offers a fun assortment of combat planes you can strap yourself into. The controls are responsive and smooth and, with practice, you can perform some dazzling maneuvers. Weapons are impressive, there are enough enemies to keep you busy and a number of game modes available including a fun death match...I really enjoy this game. No, I'm not going to give up my other combat or flight sims for this one, but I do enjoy sitting down with this game. If you haven't played it, rent a copy of it and take the time to learn and practice how to play it. Aerofighter Assault is sheer fun and nothing more. Maybe I'm wrong, but isn't that what a video game should be anyway?

great game easy to learn compared to a-10 cuba were you have to remember 12 different buttons just to arm your weapons about every key on the key board is taken so 1 wrong press can send you falling out of the sky. aerofighters assault is a simple game that is fun to play single player or multiplayer.

Aerofighter Assault is a really nice aircraft simulator and has pretty good graphics for an n64 game. Though the weapons are sort of unrealistic (ninja stars?), the gameplay and individual feel and control of each plane more than makes up for it. I personally prefer the fx plane, it has a really powerful special and is very maneuverable. The countinuous pilot talk does get a little annoying after a while and, for some reason, the storyline gameplay does not go by difficulty (or a least for me....It took me only 1 try to comeplete the 6th mission while it took me more 5 tries for the 3rd mission). Overall this game is great and will have you captivated for hours.

This game is Nintendo 64's best game of air combat. You have four different planes to choose from including: F-14 Tomcat, FS-X, SU 35, and an A-10. Eash plane has their own different missles like the standard F-14's, stars, fireballs, and rockets. Each plane has a special weapon like a Ninja Beam (the strongest), Tomohawk missles, a fire wave, and a bomb.

The game offers practice mode where you can do pilot control training, fight against five enemy aircarfts, and fight against big machines like giant subs and tanks.

Also including over eight different level like: Tokyo, Pacific Ocean, Air battle, Desert, Shuttle Defense, Space, Icecave, and also air combat with four on five. The first four levels have a certain enemy boss you must destroy like a giant spider called the Super-X, two giant submarines, a Giant Jetplane, and a armored tank.

For an additional feature, the game includes death match for player one vs. player two. There is a secret code so you can choose what levels to play. Here it is: Up (D-Pad), C-Down, Left (D-Pad), C-Right, Down (D-Pad), C-Up, Right (D-Pad), C-Left, Right (top of controller), Left at top and Z. Do this at the opening scence where the planes are flying.

The game has great graphics and excellent levels. This a great choice for air combat game lovers.

its cool the way u get to fly an f14 tomcat .i just gotta say i love it

aerofighter assault is the greatest video game in the world a true classic the best of the best buy this game you wont be sorry

I love this game, but until now (soon) I will be able to play it whenever I want. My cousin rented it twice. But now I bought it used. Anyway, it is the coolest game to play and is really neat. Personally, I like crashing my planes into buildings and shooting missiles at them. It's so much fun. I think it's the best N64 game I've ever played.

This game is perhaps my favorite game on N-64. My favorite level is Sea Attack(Lexington) because I love destroying the boats. There are 6 Fighters to choose from once you beat the game a few times, but when you start, you only get 4 to choose from.
F-16 Hawk(uses missles and bullets only)
A-10 Glenda(uses bombs, missles, and bullets)
FSX Hein(Uses a mega beam, frisbee missles and ninja bullets)
SU-35 Volk(Uses fire wall, flaming missle, and laser)
Special ships:
F-15 Meo Meo(Get her by cheat. Uses mega beam, missles and bullets)
Spanky(Earned by defeating entire game, including the bonus levels. Uses bombs, missles, and on-going laser.)
Im sorry if i bored you with the Ship analysis, but it may come in handy when actually playing the game.
