DONT BUY IT! SAVE YOUR MONEY! IT'S GARBAGE!

Hmm, where to begin. First, pretty box, but nothing inside. no manual. Second, after installing, every time you try to play the game and insert the CD, it tries to re-install itself. The graphics are a very poor attempt. In fact they dont even come close to Jane's WWII Fighters released 5 years ago... DONT BE FOOLED- ATTACK SQUADRON is nothing like the older Jane's games by EA. This one is from XICAT and it is total rubbish. There is not enough room here to fit all it's shortcomings and failures, but the point is, for 39.00 you can get several very good flight sims like Combat Flight Simulator (2) from Microsoft, IL-2 Sturmovik,
or if you are lucky you can find the old Janes WWII Fighters.
trust me, you'll be kicking yourself in the pants for buying this,
It's a moneymaker, not qt all a quality game. You'll be making a quick trip to EB to hock this thing once you try it....

Waste of $40

This game is a lot of fun.But you should use a joystick if you have one.Includes 14 flyable aircraft including The B-17 and B-24 bombers and the Mustang,109E and G,FW 190,and even the Me 262 jet fighters.I recommend that you don't fly the P-38 much because it maneuver in a dogfight very good.You can get this game at Target for as little as $10.Get this game.It's AWSOME!!

Its a fun game. The graphics can get better though. I got this game for 5 bucks. Its worth that kind of money. The campaigns can get boring. There is a quick mission. That is where you can pick ur plane and the one or ones u try to blow up. U can blow up ships or airfeilds too. The damage graphics are awesome. It shows every bullethole. The landing gear can get hit easy, then its almost impossible to land. You can also bail out to. All ur gas oil and hydraulic tanks can leak. Sometimes when ur fuel tanks is hit, it explodes and rips off one of ur wings. If u can find it under $15 buy it.

Dude, you're gettin ripped...

Ok I'm serious, don't buy this game, graphics [stunk] (turrents get shot off the plane like lego's, and most of the time the game won't even work on your computer), this has got to be the worst Jane's game ever! probably has to do with this Xicat company that made it... ifs its not electronic arts dont buy it. Don't believe me? check out the official xicat website! cheap website, no patches, and check out the forums, under the main forum (since there is no attack squadron forum yet) u'll see people screaming about the game and how it [stinks]!

GO GET WWII FIGHTERS

Its an okay game.The graphics are okay, and the selection of aircraft is neat. But there are huge screw-ups. Even though Ive got a new Windows 2000 Pro with practically unlimited RAM and hard disk space, I have an extremely big problem with jerkiness(I think that the other reviewers didnt have big systems like me)although this is slightly helped by keeping the volume low. And its impossible to save campaigns, theres no AI skill level, and if you get below 1000 feet you literally get sucked into the ground. Also, for the gunsigts there is no dot in the center. Get WW2 Fighters. Its easy,fun,good graphics, and only [money] bucks.

DONT BUY IT! SAVE YOUR MONEY! IT'S GARBAGE!
