The graphics of this game are pretty good, but I found it difficult to fly the aircraft. Not sure what the problem is, but it might be on my end. Overall, the game is pretty accurate depicting the WWII fighters and its awesome to get a gun kill on a ZERO! Having to trim the aileron becomes aggrevating while in a dogfight, but like I said, maybe my X52 needs to be configured for this game. I'd buy it again for sure.

Fans of IL 2 will love this game too.

Same great quality from Ubisoft and Oleg maddox - if you have played and enjoyed his IL 2 series you will find this game to be in the same vein. Excellent graphics and with settings that can make the experience realistic as you want it to be. The ability to land and take off from carriers is the best new feature and is both challenging and a lot of fun to perfect. Get it if you like historical WW2 flight sims.

Best Flight Sim available

I bought it because of the ratings, but it's not much better than Chuck Yeager's air combat.

5 stars for an unreleased game?

I'm sure the game will be well done, but what do we gain from a 5 star rating for a game that isn't scheduled for release until late NOVEMBER. Please play it before you rate it.

Thank you

Looks great on a high-end system...

And that's about it.

The package is a cash-cow for Russian developer 1C. It's only real use is to generate revenue to fund continued work on the phony-baloney notion that the Red Air Force destroyed the Luftwaffe in WW2.

Over half the planes in the game are either Italian, Russian or British. That's right, in a "simulation" titled, Pacific Fighters, over half the aircraft are associated with forces that had little or no involvement in the theatre.

The good news for aspiring Nazis is that the game can merged with previous 1C titles to create a cornucopia of swaztika-emblazoned aircraft. The bad news for the fascists is that the other half of the plane-set is Soviet, and they RULE the game.

Finally, it's not a "simulator" at all. There is no wind or other atmospheric effects. The beautifully done cockpits provide little information of practial use. In short, compared to FS2004, it's really kind of a joke, excepting again, to Soviet aviation revisionists or Hitler lovers.

Yuk!

Great simulator, one outstanding flaw.

This simulator allows the player a level of realism and a sense of actually flying the like of which I have not seen for a home computer system. Graphics are tantalizing, and the aircraft rendering is great.

Having said that, there is a definite bias in favor of all things Russian in the simulator. Not only in terms of numbers of available aircraft to be flown, but especially in terms of the performance of the respective aircraft. If this simulator is accurate, than the U.S. had more or less no aircraft that could hold a candle up to the Soviet Yak-3 (to name only one). In fact, according to the simulator, most of our aircraft were sub-par and we (allies) likely won the war based solely on sheer numbers. Given the fact that the vast majority of the developers are themselves Russian, I suppose the products bias is not particularly shocking. It is however a little hard to stomach at times in the face of, well, reality. Chock it up to airframe envy.
All in all a great sim, just needs more objectivity.

Good WWII flight sim.
