Hot Games
If you like your destruction on a massive scale, this game is the one for you – though it relies heavily on big explosions to entertain you (have we made our point yet?).

A very fun and gritty game with lots of charm to boot.

GameSpot
If you can see beyond a bevy of graphical shortcomings, WarJetz is perfect for those looking for "pick up and play" airborne combat.

Gamezilla!
With marginal graphics, audio and gameplay, you’ll quickly find yourself bored and looking for something else.

Core Magazine
The thrills are as cheap and quick as the gameplay is shallow and you probably won't be playing it a month after purchase. That all sounds very negative, but above all else, arcade games are good fun, and so is WarJetz.

IGN
It's a game where you fly about and shoot things, but its particular way of presenting that classic design has neither the gripping realism of a sim or the nostalgic purity of a classic shooter.

PSX Nation
An amusing and brain-dead PS2 game that will appeal to the side of everyone's brain that thinks blowing stuff to kingdom come is cool, but which will outgrow its welcome as soon as everything that can be seen or blown-to-bits in this limited setting has been done.

WDL War Jetz falls well short in its bid for great arcade flight fun, and although easily controllable and fairly simple, it's barely a rental.

Woefully limited in its fun factor and appeal.

This game sux.

Remember that PS1 game "Independence Day" from the movie... Well this game is just like that... only more of a waste of graphics and time.

Danny K. gave it a 9:
This game is pretty cool and really fun.
