I ordered this for the PC (directly from the UK) but nothing changed between the PC or Xbox version. The graphics are awsome, music and sound are nothing short of amazing. I call this an "Unlocked" type flight game sine you are actually able to fly stright up and flip over in a loop and barrel roll. The music is queued up like a movie, so, for example, when your in Bitterfield (supposedly what became of Russia cus everythings in russian) its dark and suspenseful, but when you turn the corner and have a dozen sentry guns firing on you it cuts in a great guitar solo. If you judge a game purely by how big it is, the stats are:
Game data: 1.50 Gb
Music: 2.06 Gb
Videos: 1.71 Gb
Bottom line: THQ really put alot of effort into this game, really simplified it is a fight of free market Proteus (english) vs militarism DST (german) with the FTZ (nutral) caught in the middle.
Graphics: 10/10
Music:10/10
Sound:10/10
Gameplay:10/10
Replay Value: 15/10
Overall: 10+

4.0 out of 5 stars Completely Overlooked, Underrated, and Fun, December 24, 2009

Yager is fun and satisfying. Fans of the Star Wars: Rouge Squadron games will be especially pleased with the gameplay because it is almost exactly the same. Graphically, it holds up, even compared to some Xbox 360 games. It would be nice if more games today had such interesting stories.

The similarities with Crimson Sky are due to the fact that both are flying games and both are in the steampunk genre, but that is where the similarities end. Crimson Sky was designed for multiplayer gaming, and Yager is a better 1-player game.
