I've always enjoyed flight simulators, but no matter how good the terrain, just flying around eventually gets, well, kind of boring. Hopefully Microsoft will release a patch to smooth out the kinks and let this game be played to its potential The Verdict: It's a hefty program so you'll need lots (and I mean LOTS) of computing power and it has some bugs, but when it's running it's the best-looking World War II flight sim on the market.The Bad: Needs a very fast system to run smoothly sluggish performance can make dogfighting extra difficult graphical artifacts appear from time to time menus are primitive with little in the way of pop-up help important instruments don't stay visible in normal cockpit view.The Good: Huge array of aircraft (from prop-powered fighters and bombers to early jets) and interesting though limited selection of missions to fly pilot can customize paint job, nose art on aircraft excellent terrain, complete with vehicles and enemies who shoot back realistic weather effects.
