User Rating: 7.7 | Blazing Angels: Squadrons of WWII X360
By gaeren | Review Date:
blazing angels is very similar to s.w.o.n. i actually wish it had some of the time effects and zoom that swon had. but it does run smoother. it offers solid challenge and gameplay; the voiceovers ar all well done, and the entire environment is immersive to say the least. on that note the sky is breathtaking. on hd this game should be shown to friends and family to induce drooling.

the control scheme could use some work, i'm a an ace combat kinda guy, and throttle control was less than apt as far as placing. fire control and zeroing in on targets is so much fun i can hardly describe it. the game is really only marred by a less than original idea, and the occasional game difficulty spikes.

but don't whine. the game has codes, if you must......

that said b.a. is definitely worth a rental or if you find it on sale i spose.
