    The target lock system, time shifting controls, excellent sound effects and smooth controls were a pleasure to this gamer.

    A more significant shortcoming than the absent interiors is the frankly inexcusable lack of selectable difficulty levels. [PC Gamer UK]
  3. Game Over Online

    The lack of difficulty levels, imbalanced gameplay mechanics and lack of multiplayer support reduce this game from being much more than a rent for anyone other than the most hardcore flight fanatic.

    Another second-rate port of a mediocre console shooter. [Feb 2004, p.66]

    This is a very realistic game and fun to play i mean who doesn't like shooting down other planes instead of locking on with missles.

    Arcade Game Flight Sim which Will only be Fun for a while , needs more adjustment of gameplay and flight models, needs multiplayer. Be much more fun if a good mission kill rate was 5 rather than 25.… Expand

    Once you start using the reflex time button (slows things down) the game becomes too easy, but some missions (Midway, german jet fighters) are impossible to get through without it anyway. God knows why there is no option to choose between different difficulty levels. Average gameplay and graphics, don't waste your money for this game. … Expand
