This game is absolutely awful. The graphics look like something from Sega Genesis. The sound is appalling. The gameplay is even worse. You fly around and little orange boxes highlight the bad guys...then you hit one button and it launches a 'missile' that hits the target every time.

Save your money, this game is miserable.

Not worthy of the XBox 360

I bought this game based on the video previews I saw online and on TV. That was a big mistake because I didn't read any reviews or rent it before I purchased it. The gameplay is horrible and the missions are poorly laid out. On one mission, the goal was to shoot down four enemy planes. I locked on, fired, switched targets, fired, turned left, locked on to the next target, fired, switched targets, fired and mission over in about thirty seconds. Talk about boring and this wasn't even a beginning level. Top Gun for the Nintendo is more fun and challenging than this game. It doesn't even fair very well as a simulator contrary to what another reviewer said. The controls are very sluggish, even in realistic mode. The jets do not reach high speeds quickly and lose too much speed climbing, even with afterburners.

I'll admit the graphics are very good as far as the individual airplanes are concerned. The enviroment is another story and needs lots of work. Don't buy it and think hard about even renting it.

First flight game I ever owned and now I know why...

Just bought an Xbox 360 on 9/24 and got this game along with it. Usually when buying games I just look at who made it. Noticed this was ubisoft I thought this is going to be a great game... I have played over 30 hours of scenario mode, at first it was ok but not really that fun. The missions get progressively harder. An example of this would be soon as some of the later missions start enemys are already fireing missles at you and your dead, that is on easy... Definetly would not spend 60 bucks on this game I did and was a mistake. I am only going to beat this game because of the guilt for the money it cost me. The height of this game realm would be throwing it in the toilet and flushing it.

This is the weakest x360 game I have seen so far

This game is terrible. The graphics are generations behind where they should be, and the play is simply lame. Several of the first dozen missions can be completed in about 15 seconds. Even the tutorials and mission segments look like they came straight from a game that would run on your 486.

I am not sure how anyone would have thought this game was worthy of the x360 platform.

Save your money or get a game that is amazing, like ghost recon until somebody makes a flying game that is actually fun to play.

Anyone want my slightly used copy?

Dont buy this game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not as fun as I originally thought it would be . Glad I didnt buy it . I love jet games which I mostly play on my PC. I rented this for my 360 and Im glad I did before I bought it . Some may like it, some may not, its not a bad game just not fitting what Im use to on PC.

SIMULACION O DESESPERACION

LAS MISIONES DEL JUEGO SON DEMASIADO RAPIDAS, CONSIDERO QUE INCLUSO SON SIMPLES; CUANDO TE TIENEN EN LA MIRA ES CASI IMPOSIBLE ESCAPAR. LO MEJOR DEL JUEGO PODRIA SER JUGARLO EN XBOX LIVE PERO SI TE DESTRUYEN AL INICIO TIENES QUE ESPERAR A QUE TERMINEN LOS DEMAS.

FINALMENTE CAMBIE EL JUEGO POR BLAZING ANGELS, EN ESTE LA DINAMICA DE JUEGO ES ENTRETENIDA Y CONTINUA.

A major let down

Can't even compare to Ace Combat 6, a far more detailed game. Reminds me of alot of old nintendo flight games. Definately a major let down.

Three stars is about right!!!!!

I served four years in the Air Force so I was excited about this game coming out. About time xbox made a modern jet game!!! Now to the game... I was expecting a lot more from it to tell the truth. The graphics are amazing however the gameplay is terrible especially in novice mode. In novice mode, your plane is way too slow and difficult to turn. As another poster stated it feels like your flying through mud. When I switched over to expert mode, it seemed like the jet flew easier however defeating the enemies became way too hard. On some missions right when you start, someones already firing missles at you and sometimes two at once.

Also the game becomes very repetitive. There only so many times you can go out and "intercept" incoming aircraft and ships before you feel like you are doing the same thing over and over again.

As for during the options and briefing menus/screens, there wasnt much effort put into them. Between missions your spoken to by still pictures of cartoons... they dont even move. Between the game missions, it looks like a super nintendo game.

Also, the music SUCKS!!! I'd have to say this is the worst part of the game. Who ever made this game obviously has never seen the movie TOP GUN. The music is so far from what a real jet pilot would listen to its rediculous!!

So basically, it's an average game. Something that can be enjoyed for a while however it'll get old quick. Rent it so you wont have to waste 60 dollars on it. This is a thirty dollar game not sixty.
