This game is really good.It has nice planes.The graphics is BEAUTIFUL.The controls are very easy to learn even if it is your first combat game.It was my first combat game.If you have a home theater system with surround sound with dolby digital 5.1 with a subwoofer that hits really low that game should be played at the max volume and you will feel like you are in that plane. two words GET IT!!

This aint no car racing, this is plane fighting. But its old school mixed with modern and future day weapons. Some planes look impossable, others looks possable. But the point is, if you like flight simulation games, and u love the sound of the bullets wizzin out of a turret, this game is for you. But, if your afraid of heights, you better watch yourself.

the ultimate xbox game

It should be noted that this game is not a flight simulator! This is a action-shooter with arcade physics!

Crimson Skies for the Xbox is a 3D shooter where you fly into missions with your combat plane. Just to give an example of my experience; I played missions where I had to escort someone, aquire cargo, rob a train, destroyed bandits, stold a plane and battled against huge bosses. When my plane was damaged I can land and get a quick fix at the shop. I can also choose which plane to fly before beginning a mission. I can decide which missions to accept or not choose any at all. When not playing in a mission, I could fly around and enjoy the beautiful island vistas and discover secret routes or get weapons cache. Completing missions successfuly pay money, which can be used to repair or upgrade my plane. My plane is equipped with a duel machine guns that blaze and eject hundreds of shells, or I can use my rockets to explode my enemies. In the midst of battle I can off-board my plane and man turret guns, or fire the big anti-aircraft guns against enemy planes and giant airships!

Pros:
+amazing graphics
+free-form gameplay
+excellent sound
+excellent music
+excellent controls
+choose your missions
+giant maps
+good A.I.
+multiplayer gameplay
+excellent boss battles
+intense gamplay

Cons:
none

Wish i had more time to play

This game is one of, if not THE best game out for the Xbox since Halo. It belongs in the company of ever-popular Xbox Live games such as MechAssault and Midtown Madness 3. If you like games of skill, you will enjoy this game. If only i had more time to play...

Fast, Fun and The Thirties...

I have completed the game, and I must say, Microsoft did a really great job on this title. The controls are intuitive and easy to pick up, and they are greatly used in the dogfights and the boss fights. The boss fights are exceptionally creative, and they both require strategy, pure firepower, and air prowess. The first three boss fights are mechanized bosses, but they do have weak points that can be exploited and must be destroyed quickly. The last boss, however, is reminiscent of Ace Combat 4's final boss, but unlike Ace Combat's, this boss is moving and has varied exposed centres that must be destroyed within a few minutes (five minutes or so between major targets). Lastly, the graphics is commendable, exceeding Ace Combat's in its interactivity and simulated realism (e.g., water effects as you skim the ocean water). The exploding derigibles are also pretty cool, especially the mechanised tessla derigibles. The only con is perhaps the tunnel mission for the Lost City. More than half the time I was lost since there was no map or even some type of assistance. The multiplayer is exceptional, but I do like it on Live. Overall, this game is one of the best first party XBox games to date (luckily, no more Katujo Chojin and other miserable titles of the past). If you like Ace Combat or other games of its ilk, it will beat it!

Please put your trays in the upright position

Well boys and girls put away your barf bags it is time to blow crap up. This game is a really smooth playing game the first night i got it i played for hours and hours. This game has it all. You can get different airplanes to keep in your "blimp" and after being a good air pirate and takeing everyones lunch money and and collecting wings you can upgrade your planes as you earn enough money and stuff. Not only do you fly planes and kill crap you can also get out of your plane and jump in gun turrets sweet sweet and more sweet. Well if you like to fly and kill junk get it.

XBox Live to the fullest!!

I've got this game about a week ago! I will tell you, it's addictive, and i am referring to the online part of it. The single play is also fun, but lacks a little more to get the 5 stars. If you do not have a broadband internet conection, i do not think is worth to pay the full price for this game. The single mode acctually prepares you for the online matches, there is where all the fun is. I've spent about 7 hours playing online on one single day! Wow. Do yourself a favor, and even if you are not so sure about buying, so at least rent it. I will see you online!

Great game, great music!

Would you like to shoot stuff?
Would you like to shoot stuff in a plane?
Would you like to shoot things like trains?
Would you like to play the whole game in one sitting and get severe eye strain and rattle your brains until you can't sleep for weeks and your cheeks get excederin pain as you tweak?

Cool. Me too. Maybe twice. Online is fun, too.
