    Besides awe inspiring graphics, the compelling storyline as well as varied gameplay makes this a gem.

    The graphics and the gameplay are great. Blasting pirates and completing missions are too much fun. The voice talents used in the game are a bit of a worry though. I was impressed by how good it really is.

    One of the best looking and playing XBox Games. A little bit of Wimg Comander, Crimson Skies, XWing, Tachyon, with a fine game spanning plot. Funny also. A great game at 50 bucks, at 20 buy two.

    Yager is an impressive flight game with great graphics, a wonderfully designed world and an interesting plot. And most important: The gameplay is super cool. The only problem is the brutal difficulty and the crappy voice acting. But these flaws can be handled or overlooked. Great game!

  1. A brilliant attempt at creating a completely engaging and interactive 'living' world. It is clear that an awful lot of care and attention has gone into sweating the details.
  2. Graphically it is the best Xbox game to appear this year (along with Panzer Dragoon). In terms of gameplay its story line will have you laughing and its explosive set pieces will have you yearning for more. Its balanced combination of all out blasting and adventure objectives will keep you entertained from start until finish.

    An eye-catching and compelling shoot-em-up with interesting characters and themes, Yager's hard to pass up at $20. [Oct 2004, p.97]
