4.0 out of 5 stars
Cool air game.,
By Patrick Hall (Providence RI) - See all my reviews
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Wings 2: Aces High (Video Game)
I've always enjoyed aerial games, but this one is by far one of the coolest I've ever played. The creators really tried to keep this authentic, so you're not going to find fast-packed action, but so long as that's not what you're looking for, I think you'll like this game.
The premiss is simple. You choose from one of five pilots, each of whom has certain advantages (speed, accuracy, ect) to comand one of three kinds of missions. You may switch pilots at any time, and with each mission completed, you can boost their skills, making them more competitive as the missions get harder. The missions are broken into dog-fights (the majority), straffing runs, and bombing runs. Your mission will be handed to you prior to taking flight and there will be a review of your performance at the end. The combat sequences are really cool, especially the dog-fights. The game will actually test your skills as a pilot because it will take more than shooting your enemy to win. Once in your sights, enemy pilots will dive and dodge to escape your gunfire, and it is difficult to score enough hits to take down a plane. You will also come under attack, which will force you to learn the mechanics of your plane. Dive too hard, give the plane too little gas, or bank it too hard, and you will quickly end up a pile of smoking rubble on the ground. But with practice and a good pilot, you will use the skies of France as your own personal ballet stage of aerial death! The controls are very easy to master, and the difficulty of shooting down enemy planes will keep you experimenting with different techniques to get the upper hand. The graphics are exceptional, as are the sound effects, so don't be put off by the slow pace of the game. In fact, you'll find that the air war during WWI produced a number of unique individuals forged at a time when aerial combat was in its infancy, many of whom were just crazy.

I would rent this all the time when I was a kid. One of the best flight games (wouldnt really call it a sim) on the SNES. Tons of fun.

This review is from: Wings 2: Aces High (Video Game)
For its time This game provided a needed genra in combat flight simulation. In comparison to other CFSs of the era this one stands apart. none of the horrible landing physics involved in other super nintendo games such as Top Gun. It has several types of combat including air to air and air to ground. Worth the $4 it costs these days.
