Death is no easy answer
For those who wish to know
Ask those who have been before you
What fate the future holds
It ain't pretty

Lol I used to play that game endless hours on Amiga. I finished it at least once. I loved the storyline in the game even though I didn't always read the descriptions between the missions, they gave a funny feeling of immersion.

Too bad it's just a port, not a remake.

Yeah.  It's definitely just a port.  The graphics and sound became better all by itself. :P


On a side note, I never had the chance to play this one.  I played Wings 2: Aces High, which I thought was fun, though a pita on those bunker strafing missions. :bhead  Was always curious about Wings but couldn't find it.  At that time, it never occurred to me that it was a PC game. :(  Now I have my chance! :x :rock

They can be redone on a port. The game mechanics are still the same. I was more hoping for a modern WWI sim with an attached storyline like WINGS has.
