Ok, I just beat the 'Crossing at Dawn' level that the guy pretty much based his entire review on, and he over exaggerated how difficult it was by a long shot. He clearly did not learn how to brake/hover the dragon properly, and tilt the six axis to turn around so that you do not have to fly out to sea and turn around to come in for another wave.
The first portion of the level has you rescuing a couple of robed Assylian individuals from an incoming ice dragon assult....super easy. Pick up one at a time, follow the directional arrow down the bridge to a plarform where you automatically drop off the 1st robed Assylian, rinse and repeat 1 more time.
Now you have to fly along the bridge (braking/hovering and tiliting where necessary in order to look) and find the calvary with the blue flags (the Mokai) where you simply land, romp, chew, and breathe fire with the square, circle, and tringle buttons until you have killed a certain number of troops. Very fast, and easy portion of the level.
Now here is the part that Mr. review guy had a fit with apparently. A few dragons come in and drop off 'Toros' (giant Taurus the bull looking creatures.) Simply stay within the length of the bridge, by braking and tilting at the same time where need be, fly down the bridge until you see the Toros mowing through your ground troops in red, fly towards one at a time, lock on and repeatedly press the square button to roast him alive. Rinse and repeat for remaining Toros....cake.
Now we have to knock a few defender dragons out of the sky, or roast them to death (takes longer) Fly up and down the bridge until you meet one head on, lock on and fireball them to death (takes a bit) or ram him out of the sky. Repeat a few times. Not too difficult.
Now we have the armored rhinos that you cannot kill with fire. Use the same flying procedure as outlined with the Toros, lock on, push triangle when prompted to fly in, shake the controller up and down once you have latched onto the Rhino, press triangle again. Rinse and repeat a few more times....easy.
Sorry for the diatribe, but I just wanted you guys to know that he completely exaggerated the difficulty of this level, and even the controls for that matter. If you know how and when to break/hover, and tilt at the same time in order to get lined up where you want to go, flying is MUCH easier and more fun than the mess he described. Apparently he was just mad because he sucked at playing the game, so he slapped a 4.9 on the game because he got aced by the easy fifth level, lol. I sure had no problem with it.
