Cool Flight Sim

5 Rating: 5, Useful: 11 / 13
Date: December 15, 1999

The other review of this game is misleading. The person obviously did not spend much time with this masterpiece. This game is truly excellent in every area - control, sound, graphics. This game is difficult, but it is also very rewarding if you spend time with it. If you want a game that has great depth and replay value, then get Aero Wings. It's alot better than Air Force Delta. Aero Wings is one of the best experiences available on Dreamcast.

Not a "Blowed up real Good" Game -Technical and Challenging

Ask yourself "What do I want in a game?". If the game is flashy but easy to beat people get bored with it and complain it's not challenging enough, but if a game like this one comes out and is challenging people get frustrated and say it's too hard to beat and give up on it. This is a game that requires that you use your head and not your cheat manual. The physics of the game is like flying a real plane. There's a lot to keep track of and it is challenging, but you get used to it. The game is broken down into various missions and some of them seem impossible but if you use your wits to think about and work through the situations you will clear the levels. To me, half the fun of gaming is trying to figure out on your own how to beat what seems unbeatable. The game's "Flight instructor" also insults you if you crash, which is a nice touch. A decent title if you want to use your head instead of putting your thumbs on auto-pilot.

This game I envisioned in my head almost a year ago. This game is 95% of what I wanted out of an airplane demonstration game. I only wish it was about the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds. The game is not for action or Air Combat lovers, it is for those who would like to learn aerodynamics such as: flaps, landing gears, roll rates, pitch, smoke, etc. This game is very detailed with "REALISTIC" flying, and is VERY difficult. If your an air show fan you will love it, if you like formation flying with a friend(s) you will love it, if your into strafing missions, an all out non-realistic flying combat - wait for Ace Combat 3 or something better for PS2. Good luck and don't crash!

Its a flight Sim that frustrating

This is a game that very frusrating becouse of the play controls. You have to control every thing from the landing gear to the back rudders. This game is like flying a real plane so if your looking for fast action than this game wouldnt be for you. I rented it and sucked.

Waste of money

The alternate name for this game, Aero Dance, describes how much fun this game is. It might as well be a game about dancing. If you "break formation" you have to wait through 30 seconds of loading, exit a replay, wait 30 more seconds to load, hit retry, and wait 30 more seconds. Don't buy, rent, or even steal this game; it's not worth it. This game should be called "Aero... through the wallet." If you like fun games, I suggest Test Drive 6, Hydro Thunder, NFL 2K (blows me away), Toy Commander, or anything else but this one.

For people SERIOUS about aviation

For everyone who loves aviation,this is an incredible game.It simulates TRUE flight in various aircraft.The phyics are right on,the detailed planes are incredible,and each plane handles true to character.For people longing to be real life pilots this is a great experience.For trigger-happy individuals,wait for Aerowings 2:Air Strike.

Great Game!!

I recieved this game nearly a year ago, and it still has my interest. It is full of different aircraft which are very accurate. Also, this game is a console flight simulator, acutally it is the first one I've seen. The graphics are fairly good for what the game is. I give Aerowings 5 stars!! *****

Horrible, Horrible, Horrible!

I wish they had a No star rating cuz that would definately be on my list. I had purchased the game 1 day after recieving my dreamcast. I got it out of the package and played it for about 2 minutes, Everyone else that said that this game sucked is ABSOLUTELY correct and those of you who liked it, I dont know what your thinking. Do not even recieve this game as a gift, if someone buys it for you take it back.I recommend NFL 2k because it is almost real. I am going to use The Aero fighter game as target practice when shooting my rifle.

excelent game

Aerowings has a nice veriety of planes to choose from. The plane graphics are great but the enviromental graphics arn't so good. The first times you play it it can be fun to land and take off the plane, but soon it just gets kinda borin'. You don't get to shoot down other planes and make them crash to the sea or blow up all the buildings, it's just fly'in around like an air show. You don't get to land on any air craft carriers so that makes it no fun! The music can get very annoying, somtimes it makes me feel like smashing my fist into my T.V screen to stop that horrible racket! Even if you like this game in the begening you'll get so bored of it you'll wish you hadn't even bought it!Overall I would give this a thumbs down 2 star failer. Don't waste your money on this other games like Airforce Delta are good. Here are my ratings if you wish to read them.

graphics: Horrible

music: Even Worse

missions; Boring

replay value: All of the Above

overall rating; 2 stars! (PATHETIC)
