The Microsoft Flight Simulator X Review Conclusion

Gold Edition will provide you with more than 80 missions set all over the world. It is now available for Windows 7 too but you must keep it in mind that the game apparently requires very high performance hardware and also greatly depends on a high CPU clock speed with the use of multiprocessing cores being relatively poor. The game also provides a thrilling multiplayer race mode which you can play with your online friends.

DCS Black Shark Review

DCS Black Shark The Ultimate Aerial Combat Simulator

As a flight simulator junkie from the moment I picked up the DCS Black Shark it has been an interesting ride for me. The DCS Black Shark is quite different from other flight simulators as it provides you only a single aircraft, the Kamov KA-50 Black Shark attack helicopter from Russia. You may be thinking that how a single aircraft can satisfy you but the truth is that in all probability it will. It is only because of the fact that all the aircrafts in other popular simulators are ‘dumbed down’ by a considerable extent and are without a truly functional flight management system. On the other hand there is more detail incorporated in a single aircraft in the DCS Black Shark than an entire squadron from Microsoft flight simulator.

Flight Model Realism

The flight model realism is what impressed me most about the DCS Black Shark as the flight model physics of this simulator are just second to none. With the accurately modelled Vortex ring states the Black Shark is a real tough bird and you need to be as careful as flying a real life aircraft. You need to understand a lot of things before you get the aircraft truly under your control. Nearly every system of the aircraft is made fully functional by the developers like the hydraulics, the avionics and the engines and every panel that you will get in the cockpit is fully functional. You will know nothing less than a real life Black Shark pilot when you come in terms with them and the experience is only going to be as fascinating as you can imagine.

DCS – Black Shark Startup

The Weapon System

The weapon system of the aircraft is almost as accurately rendered as the flight model and is built around the Shkval electro-optical targeting system that can provide you with the ultimate air fighting experience. The helicopter can carry up to 12 laser guided anti-tank missiles with a range of around 7.5 kilometres. But targeting and firing from this aircraft requires some practise. There are also the rockets and a 30mm cannon on its right side. In every aspect the DCS Black Shark has the capability to satisfy and impress and of course there is a lot more that worth a mention.

Multiplayer Communication

The Communication menu of DCS Black Shark has all the popular combat flight simulator commands but the unique feature of this simulator is its Datalink feature. With this computerised system each aircraft within a flight can exchange the targeting data which is a terrific method of maintaining the situational awareness. Though there is no voice chat facility for online multiplayer gaming the datalink feature works online as well and can efficiently communicate between two players.

System Requirement

Like most of other combat flight simulators the DCS Black Shark also requires high performance hardware simulator. It requires a Pentium 4.2 GHz processor, 128 MB graphic card of GeForce FX 5700 or better and a minimum of 2.5 GB HDD. With the unprecedented realism in flight dynamics, avionics system, weapon system and instrument modelling it has been one of my best flight simulators and can easily impress most diehard and avid gamers.

Although it has to be said on the outset that this is a game that is not great on the looks, it is certainly has the best feel to it, as far as air combat games are concerned. Though it provides a good gaming experience, the last generation kind of look and a design that is simplistic are big drawbacks in the Heatseeker WII. In a nutshell it is one hell of a hi speed journey where you rip through at 500 miles per hour and are responsible for some heavy duty explosions that can destroy your enemies big time.

Thrown Into Action

Although you start off as a rookie pilot on a mission that does not seem all that important, but inadvertently get thrown into a full scale war, that is one of the largest in the history of mankind. This is where your real fighting begins and you are supplies with all the right arms and ammunition by way of which you are just on a bombing spree. You get to lead a whole host of combats not only in the air, but also on the land and water. With a supply of real ammunition, the bombing saga gets even better.

During the course of your path, you will find yourself in the best of aircrafts that are supplied with a lot of controls, but while playing I realised that most of the controls are of little or no use to me. All I was required to do was, pull out my heaviest ammunition and blast away the nearest enemy on target with a simple lock on target and press the button move.

Tactically, there is precious little to do, which makes the game pretty simple. However, some of the moments in the game I found really entertaining. For instance, the manufacturer does score on the fact that the fighter plane experience feels very real. As you progress from one level to the other, you get to experience a bigger and more sophisticated aircraft and the battle intensifies. There are some manoeuvres that you can carry out with these mean machines that will bring on an adrenaline rush.

Ugly Duckling

But what really does not work for the game are the looks. It will be no exaggeration to call it downright ugly. The imaging and animation effects are mediocre and have a very old look to it from almost a decade back. Besides it does not work on the 480 p mode and does not fit to widescreen. So your best bet is to put it on some 16 inches TV set that is locked out somewhere in the basement.

Heatseeker Wii Review Conclusion

In conclusion , this is a game that is definitely not a must have, Yes, it does have it moments of glory in air combat, but it’s relatively basic, something that you will probably have played almost a decade back. So unless you are looking at simple linear missions you could probably give Heatseeker a shot.

Blazing Angels: Squadrons of WWII Xbox can be described as a decent airplane simulator game that provides a good multiplayer experience, but does not score all that well in the single player mode. Blazing Angels is a story of a group of pilots on a mission during the Second World War Hence the name .Blazing Angels. You play an American pilot volunteer in England whose job it is to aid the combat the German attack. During the course of the play you are joined by other fellow volunteers like yourself who as a team get to fly on many important missions across the Pacific Ocean.

Blazing Visuals

The game is really high on the visual quotient and it’s like actually like flying over the River Thames or the Big Ben or Eiffel Tower. Some visuals give you goose bumps like the one in Batlle of Britain when thick black smoke from the bombings makes the London sky look really eerie from your cockpit. But as much as I was impressed with the important landmarks, the other regular buildings seemed like a misfit, and looked like first generation graphics that stood out like a sore thumb. Also the realism factor is kind of amiss in the game. For instance, every time the aircraft bursts into flames it is really easy to summon Joe (one of the volunteers) who gives out an instruction and with a push of a button your aircraft is repaired almost miraculously. Now this seemed all too easy to me!

Scores On Controls

But where the game really scores is on the controls department. The controls seem intuitive and it is quite a kick to be able to control these sophisticated aircrafts with such precision. Besides there is camera that focuses on the next enemy on target and makes it easy to point and shoot. However in the single player mode it can become a bit of a drone as you get into the fly plane shoot bomb mode over and over again. However, it scores again on the multiplayer mode where you as a team can defend against the crafty and agile Japanese that has to offer some real moments of thrill. My favourite in the game was the capture the base where you and your team can fulfil specific objectives to swoop down and capture a base after having successfully outdone your enemy by strategy.

Blazing Angels: Squadrons of WWII Review Conclusion

In conclusion, with the Blazing Angels: Squadrons of WWII Xbox, the manufacturers have offered a decent game, but with obvious flaws. It is like for every right thing that they did, they have done a corresponding wrong that makes this game a not so hot option for hardcore air combat admirers.

If you looking for thrill and hi speed in your airplane simulator game, the Ace Combat Assault Horizon is just the thing for you. In this game there is a new approach to what Project Ace’s original vision was. A battle of epic proportions in the sky. I liked the dramatic proportions that the manufacturers have added to the game. It is action being told in a cinematic kind of a format, and beneath the high pitched drama. Although the cinematic form does appeal at first, sometimes I did get the feeling that the storyline was somewhat disjointed. However, this does not, for one moment, take away from the hardcore action that the game promises.

Plan Of Action

The objective of this game is to defeat a whole wave of enemies in an air combat before you move on to the next level. It’s not a very creative approach, granted, but that’s the way it’s meant to be. The story telling format helps in this aspect. Door gunners, bomber missions and helicopters are a bonus in this game that adds on more layers to the combat. Once I was in control of the game, it felt real good as the manoeuvrability of this game is way better than its predecessors. Besides, there is an extra mode called the Dog Fight mode (DFM) that starts as soon as you hit a button.
The moment you switch on over to the DFM, the fight intensifies and there are direct attacks on the enemy to buckle them down. Expected a lot of adrenaline rush as you switch on to this mode! The real show stealer is however the Apache Longbow- which is also touted as the US army’s pride. With the Apache Longbow you get to know just how superb flying a helicopter is. The controls in this felt just out of the world unlike usual helicopters in games. There will be some challenges when you are flying this, and I have to use tactics and plan my attacks on the enemies while on this one, but in the end it did feel like on hell of an experience.

Wholesome Experience

In full action mode this game is quite a stunner. Although the storyline and the music used is not extraordinary, it has its high points and does justice to the format of the game. The zooming in aircrafts and the smoke like atmosphere feels very real and if you are in the multiplayer mode, you will enjoy the team based tasks that you will be asked to take upon. The music and narrative guides you through and you feel like you are a part of a real air combat.

Ace Combat Assault Horizon Review Conclusion

In a nutshell, this is a polished air combat game, which is a definite improvement over its predecessors. Not too many air combat games are out in the market as of now, so if you are one who like to fight when you are airborne this is just what you have been looking for.

If you are looking for some serious air combat and are a pro at flying helicopters, this is the simulator game you will find most engaging. While I do enjoy air combat games, I do not fancy myself as a helicopter flier. So at the very outset let me mention that this is not a game for the masses.

Gaijin Entertainment, that is the Russian manufacturer of this game, also have a license to manufacture real Apache copters, so it is not an exaggeration to say that they have indeed brought this expertise to this game. With Apache Air Assault it is like finding yourself inside the cockpit of a real Apache AH-64D attack helicopter.

Difficult To Grasp Controls

Once you are airborne, you will find that every mission of the Apache has a background story that you will be given a briefing about. At each stage you will be in the cockpit of a deadly helicopter blowing out your enemies who are either airborne or on the ground targets. While playing the game I found that at every stage I had to lash out on enemies and take them up in combat, either to cover friends on the ground, or to finish a barrage of enemies headed towards me. Every stage in the game is engaging and a lethal combat that requires tact and precision.

However, like I mentioned before the biggest downer for this game is that the controls go awry if you are not are pro. No sooner than I was finished with the tutorials than I found myself stumbling with the controls as the game got into the realistic mode. If I might add at this stage, it is easy to give up in frustration, as the controls are real tricky, and it is nearly impossible to carry on without complete mastery over flying this virtual demon of a helicopter.

For The Hardcore Action Guys

Although made to feel like a real life helicopter combat, this game does not replicate real life wars, instead gives it a kind of storyline that call for men to show their honour when the need of the hour arises. Although I found the storyline droning and a bit of a drag, it must be said that the manufacturers have delivered on the helicopter combat what they had promised. It is indeed a full blown helicopter combat. If you are a hardcore action guy with a love for copters you will keep at it, but after I while, I could not find enough interest to keep playing as the helicopter combat sounds did not do enough to keep me engaged.

Apache Air Assault Review Conclusion

Overall the game does offer 16 stages of combat that can be engaging, but the missions seem a little repetitive and like me, if you feel restricted because you have not been able to master controls, you may find it difficult to move beyond the learning curve. However if you are a pro, I am sure it will be quite an experience to fly the Apache helicopter and enjoy a good old school air combat.

The Blazing Angels 2, secret missions has been released on the PS 3 back in 2007  by Ubisoft. This airplane simulator game is a move away from its predecessor given the fact that it introduces a whole new set of characters and new enemies that you will have to raze to the ground. Set in the year 1940, you get to lead the team as Captain Robinson. You mission is called Operation Wildcard and you and your team will be entrusted to take on the Nazis head on, doing whatever is necessary to destroy Hitler’s secret weapons of destruction.

Moving Away From Facts

This is obviously a fictional account of what could have happened in the World War, so those looking for factual details are going to be disappointed. On the other hand such dramatic fictionalisation does lend a heady pace to the game. Over a course of 18 missions you and your wingmen who are vested with special powers can take your enemies down. Having wingmen as helpers can seem useful in the beginning, but as I progressed in the game, I found that the helpers are somewhat restricted and I am supposed to take a bulk of the action that is required. The best they can do is taunt enemies that keeps them distracted for a while, but loses its effectiveness soon.
The other thing that I found rather annoying is that, even though during the course of a mission that my aircraft got blown to bits the wingmen went absolutely unscathed! This is a little attention to detail that the manufacturers should have paid. I also thought that the combat situations are not very well thought through and getting past one’s enemies of replenishing oneself is way to easy, to have some serious involvement.

Easy Controls

In most of the situations that arise, the controls of the planes are very easy. You can choose between various fight styles, but with each you hit a glass ceiling as you can’t make fancy manoeuvres, that you would normally expect from a high end aircraft. The bright spot of the game though is the multiplayer mode, which is designed much more creatively, and keeps you engaged with team missions and the like. The problem however is that not too many people are playing it online, so you are back playing solo again.

Blazing Angels 2 Secret Missions Review Conclusion

All in all Blazing Angels 2 Secret Missions is a great game. And due to the fact that it has been available for a while you can get it for around $20.

This Flight Simulator software is more realistic than any other simulation software available. It has been built to give you the feeling that you are actually flying. I have found that the only way you can get close to this real life flying feeling is by using this software.

In an attempt to deliver the full impact of flying, the designers have incorporated climatic and seasonal changes into the design too. It is now safe to say that this Flight simulator is the best in the market and you get every bit of your money’s worth with this airplane simulator game.

Also, the Flight Pro Sim has Google Maps into the program making Flight Pro Sim the most authentic game you can buy. Want to see what it really looks like down below? Just take a look and see actual trees and lakes. Everything you could possibly want is in this game. Thus, Flight simulator offers a real life flying as we get firsthand experience with a completely real environment by sitting back at home.

One thing that was missing in many flight simulators was that they focus more on military and combat aircrafts. FlightProSim on the other hand, comes together and forms a complete package of airplanes, almost every kind you could think of. Apart from high end military fighter jets and helicopters, you also get a chance to test your nerves on planes like the 747, the concord and even those small chartered jets with minimal seating. With the FlightProSim the sky is really the limit and you should fasten your seat belts up to enjoy this wonderful package.
I have always been an admirer of fighter jets but obviously never got a chance to fly in them. But now, thanks to FlightProSim, I now got the chance to fulfil my dream of flying a military fighter jet by these airline games.

This amazing new flight simulator software provides fun and enjoyment with real life challenges and comes at an unbelievable price to get you airborne without leaving your living room.
