    It reintroduces the sometimes forgotten concept of a 10-15 minute learning curve, and has done away with a 200-page flight manual on the basics of aviation.

    If you want gorgeous, consistent, believable action that controls well, Comanche will appease your militaristic alter ego.

    A perfect balance between authenticity and accessibility. It probably won’t appeal to the hard-core sim fans, whilst those that like their action immediately up front will probably also be deterred.
  4. Gamer's Pulse

    A fun-filled, fast-action title with missions of all difficulty levels, which is achieved at the cost of in depth graphics and technical stability.
  5. Adrenaline Vault

    The quality graphics, accessible interface, fun single-player and multiplayer action, and effective sound all combine to make this a very appealing release.

    The game is, for lack of a better term, tired. [Mar 2002, p.89]

    This one flies in the face of taste, tweaks the nose of subtlety and goes down in a blaze of glory, all guns blazing.

It is one of the last playable Helicopter battle sims, with the exception of Apache AH64 Assault. I have both of these titles and they are both good and fun to play. Comanche 4 doesn't have a long learning curve like the old Janes flight games and everyone I have gifted it to have only praise for it. It isn't a New Title so the graphics aren't perfect, but if you want a fun game that gets challenging as it progress's then Buy It you won't be disappointed. It also has a fun multiplayer!… Expand

But it certainly falls short of being as militarily realistic as Comanche 3 which requires a lot of critical thinking and planning because it is just more difficult. Regardless of its faults, this is a thoroughly enjoyable game with plenty of fun to be had with interesting (though slightly unrealistic) missions and much faster-paced engagements. I still remember all the hype and interviews about the beautiful graphics about this game and an ATI spokesperson saying that the water effects in this game was the most visually advanced in world at the time. Ofcourse it was!… Expand
