Reviewed on 2008-07-16 a good flying shooter The graphics are o.k and at times could better. The controls take some time to get use to. I crash on ever level due to the controls. Even through the controls are hard they are fun. I like shoot dowm planes.

Reviewed on 2008-07-16 Defnitely more fun on Wii than on Xbox I had the XBOX360 version.. and now the Wii version. Instead of using a gamepad, the wii version is more fun. But indeed, this is a tough game to play.

Reviewed on 2008-07-11 Too Hard! This is my first flight sim game and went through the training flight with little problem. Now I'm stuck in the "Dunkirk" mode and can't seem to get past getting rid of the German convoys etc. The game times out before I can complete the mission. :-( The designers should have given you an easy or hard mode should a person could choose depending on their expertise. Also, I don't like having to restart a campaign if I don't complete the mission. Enemy targets are a bit hard to find until you do the campaign 2,3,4,5,time you get my thoughts. Anyway it's fun and a bit addictive.

Reviewed on 2008-06-22 Too hard!!!! This game was hard!!!! Wii needs to improve before this game was published. It took forever to pass the first level and I was stuck on the third level. I think this game was made too hard. Actually, this game should have been made with Wi-Fi to play against other people around the world. Buy another game!

Reviewed on 2008-06-13 Decent Game This is a decent game for anyone interested in the airborne battles of WWII. The controls are a little tricky to get used to but once you get the hang of it, it is addicting. The graphics are ok. I dont play it all that often but it's fun to pick up and play every once in a while.
