Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this and it's companion "Wings Over Vietnam". I will review this in 3 parts: ease of setup, learning curve, and fun.
1) Ease of Setup: I use a very specialized setup, involving a flight stick & throttle, rudder pedals, track ball and 2 keyboards and a TrackIR unit (look into TrackIR unit - it'll make the sim come alive). Was it difficult to install & set up? Not at all - if my setup is easy, then it will be easy for anyone to install and configure.
2) Learning Curve: While this is a jet simulator, it's not entirely accurate. In this case, that's a boon: it's easy for a person who's never flown before to be able to handle the planes in relatively short order. Some sims take weeks to get a handle on-this one is geared towards gameplay rather than completist accuracy.
3) Is it fun? Yes. The graphics are decent, the sim is fairly robust, there are good number of missions and a variety of planes to fly. I've had friends who have had little interest in sims try it out, about 50% so far get hooked.
This is a good one, doesn't require a monster gaming rig to run (I'm using a 2004 Office Depot Compaq - it runs just fine), and is quick and easy to get into. The manual is a pdf on the CD.
Hardcore simmers might give it a miss - but for team play and new to the hobby simmers, this one is great.
