What we thought sucked:
- Far from sim-quality flight modelling, no matter what flight mode you select.
- Depressing storyline.
- So-so graphic novel style cut-scenes.
- No manual landing sequences.
- Auto-replenishing, unlimited ordinance.
- AAA is unrealistically-accurate.
[/wpcol_1half_end]Overall, Air Conflicts: Secret Wars is one of those middle-of-the-road titles which has a lot going both for and against it. If you are looking for an inexpensive arcade combat flight game, then you could do worse.
