Not the best flight sim out there but its still worth it.
User Rating: 7.3 | Blazing Angels: Squadrons of WWII PC
Blazing Angels is a WWII flight sim which takes you to the fronts of North Africa, Western Europe, and the Pacific. Its good in some areas, the graphics are fantastic. The planes are highly detailed and its got neat looking enviroments. There are over 40 planes you can fly and nearly 20 missions to take on. Also it gives you the ability to command your squad, you can issue commands such as attack or defend. Too bad its got a lot of problems. The only camera angle is in 3rd person, theres no 1st person or cockpit camera angles. Its also has poor controls for joystick users. The thing I hate about it most though is the voice acting of your enemies. Your enemys are German and Japanese but they speak english and they can sometimes say the same lines over and over again. Also if you sometimes shoot down a japanese, they yell "mommy" and I dont think the real japanese of WWII acted like that. Also some parts of it are historicilly incorrect. For example, you can help defend Pearl Harbor and you can shoot down over 50 japanese aircraft. In real life only 29 aircraft were lost. Also you have unlimited machine guns and unlimited bombs and rockets. So its more of an arcade type of game instead of simulation. If you are an aircraft buff or just like the WWII genre then this game is for you. Overall though I say its an OK game.
