I own all three of these flight sims now, and I can't get enough! The missions are a little weak, but the views of the planes in flight more than makes up for it. Go buy this one!

I have it and let me say this: the graphics get 31/2 out of 5. That's all.

Kind of Fun

Combat Flight Simulator is fun but not very realistic and it has really bad grafics. Somethimes when your playing the game a enemy shoots your plane and then theres bullet holes in the cockpit window and you survive. If that really happened the pilot would be dead. Also the planes dont try to move away from you when you shooting them so it is really easy to shoot down planes. I shot down 72 planes once. Combat Flight Simulator is not alot of money to buy so it kind of worth getting if you like WW2 combat flying game. Combat Flight Simulator 2 and 3 are a lot more fun and realistic.

a Great Game

This is a very good game. the grafics are pretty good but i got a program that made them better. and when you buy it you can play online at the MSN gaming zone. i play there at the moment. my zone name is CS_DUDE_ . if you ever need help learning how to fly come on and i will help you learn.

This is a joke of a game. Let's see, a campaign can be finished in an hour. The AI makes you conclude that enemy fighter pilots have a deep vindictive nature (is mine the only plane in the sky?). All in all, this game is like a new level of computer chess--boring as hell, and yet somehow intelligently scripted [SCRIPTED]!

I have quite a few flight simulation games and this one gets boring fast. Their are very few missions to choose from and not a lot of aircraft to choose from either.

Agreat game! The game features a good realism factor, goodgraphics although it is belittled by the CFS 2 screenshots , and some great missions, BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT is the ability to use millions of planes off of the web plus import FS 98 a/c directly into the game. Great your thinking, but the area that it falls short is the campaigns, the only good one from an emersion point of view is the Battle of britain from the luftwaffe point, but the best one for fun is the Bttl of europe from the luftwaffe, This problem is remidied by the fact that there hundreds of better ones on the internet, plus some of the planes on the web are better too.

Every thing about the game is great, just fly the single mission "clobber college" against ace pilots Just over a hundred planes allied and axis of all sorts wheeling about the skies.Ahhh i love the smell of burning messerschmitt in the morning!

One other problem is that in most of the missions though it is just you and your wingman, possibly up to eight in the campaigns.

in short BUY IT NOW...

Good but not indepth

First of all the game graphics are sharp and fast. The flight physics are on the ball. When you are looking around in your cockpit this where the game shines.

Shooting a plane is very rewarding with debre falling off(and yes you can in fact shoot wings off planes) and smoke.
Unloading on a plane and then pausing to move the camera all around is worth way more then 5 stars.
Unfortunately the campaign brings it down for imersive play and lasting interest.

This quote from reviewer Filmfanman sums it up perfectly:

"The campaign modes are the least interseting aspect of the game and leave a lot to be desired. I want a sense of "being there" from my sims, outside of combat. I want detailed debriefings after a mission. I want to feel a sense of camaraderie with my fellow virtual pilots. I want to know who made it back and who didn't. I want to see how many kills my squad mates got so I have a benchmark with which to compete. I don't care if the missions are scripted or dynamic so long as they have that feel that really immerses you in a campaign. The campaigns here fall flat"

But the game is good for a few hours here and there. And I would encourage you to fly the ones that are not terribly long to get the most out of the simulation aspect. Otherwise like what someone else said. It will get boring quick.

All in all a very solid game where the campaigns brings it down 2 stars. Sad.
