This game is superb, its my favourite wii game at the minute!
The control system works really well most of the time. you point with the wii mote to move your plane about the screen, to use the main weapons you use the B button as well as the D pad to change weapon and zoom, you also use the nunchuk as the throttle and machine gun. as I said they mostly work fine but sometimes they do fail and you go nose first into the sea which in a long mission is annoying.
The graphics look good when your flying around you get a blurring effect that works really well, shadows are cast across your plane and when you use the afterburner the entire screen bends around the edges of the screen which looks really cool when you use it. I get what people are saying with the cut scenes they wouldn’t look out of place on a early ps2 game but there only cut scenes at the end of the day I mostly skip them anyway.
I would recommend this game to anyone with a Wii even if you rent it. your missing out if you give this one a miss!
