blazing angels?
« on: April 22, 2008, 03:38:50 PM »
Im thinking about buying this game, it looks like a cheap rip off of AcesHigh. Has anyone played it that can give a better insight about the game.

Looks very arcade like, 3rd person views and magical bombsights on the ground.

I've seen it...I haven't thought to try it though. IF you end up getting it let me know how it is.

Played it on the Xbox360.  Cartoonish but not unfun.  Can get repetitive.

Nothing like Aces High.

Would it be a buy or just a rent in your guys opinion?

The storyline the Ace Combat games give are always excellent! I love to play through all the missions once or twice, but it is nothing like AHII.

If it's like Heroes of the Pacific just rent it. Didn't think it was as good as the Ace Combat Series, bunch of small things that bugged the heck out of me.

I got it for free when I bought my Joystick...

It's nothing like AHII, it's an arcadegame, with unrealistic planemovements...

I wouldn't spend a cent on it

Played it on the Wii and it pretty much sucked.  I'd rent it before plopping down any real money on it.
