This game doesn't work at all, crashed my computer on the first launch, and then caused some sort of glitch. As a result, the game thought it was launched for 80 hours, erasing my ability to get a refund on steam. I did not play for more than 80 seconds. Terrible game. Terrible platform. Terrible customer service in response to an issue caused by the game. Stay away.

A fairly easy, accessible, and enjoyable game. If you want to spend many months learning carb mixture and prop control, this isn't a hard core simulator. If you just want to dive in and have fun, this is an enjoyable game. And the graphics are surprisingly good, for a 2009 game.

Great game, but the Steam version has YuPlay DRM which has made it unplayable. This game is avalaible on GOG for the same price, that version has the dlc included for free and is without any DRM. So the GOG version is the version you want, not on Steam.

I am not marking this review as negative for the game itself. I enjoy playing it. I am marking this review negative to warn the masses about the DLC. It can't be used, Yuplay are no more and although Gaijin have taken the rights, the ♥♥♥ launcher still wants to connect to a YUPLAY account. The DLC can not be used witout being looged in to a Yuplay account, which now is impossible. Valve need to either remove the...

Wings of Prey is comparable to that hot girl you had a crush on in high school. She was beautiful, the game is gorgeous. She had such elegance; ♥♥♥ is very polished as a game. She has these abundance of little quirks (twirling hair, giggle, etc) that made you go wild, ♥♥♥ has features to drool for (storyline, video replay, squadron control, etc). Then one day you just don’t get excited to spend time together...

The core game itself is still very good... the Steam version of it is distinctly NOT. Though it is finally working again, which is nice. Originally Gaijin used a criminally limited 4 or 5 time activation, 15 to 10 years ago. Formal requests t reset that activation limit were required were you to reinstall onto the same machine at a later date after using your quota of activations. 3rd party launcher log in was also...

If you're looking for a flight simulator game, but without all the fuss, and good keyboard/mouse controls, then I can highly recommend this game. Training mode is very open and pretty much lets you do whatever you want - be that combating other fighters, or flying under low bridges in a bomber. Unfortunaly there doesn't seem to be much of a mod scene, but overall I can highly recommend this game.

Game will not work on modern systems. Crazy that it is still up for sale on Steam when developer stopped supporting the product a long time ago. No matter how cheap the price might be on sale, it is still too much for a game that won't even launch.

I had the game for 360 but decided to get it for PC so I can use my flightstick (Thrustmaster HOTAS X) So far I have yet to notice a difference in gameplay. However, the graphics look really great, I have it on ultra-turbo-awesome and it's very noticeably different from 360. The best part is the immense configurability for joysticks. It's so good that I spent the first 45 minutes just making small changes to the...

So far I am loving this game, basically to me its a single player version of war thunder and thats what i've been looking for, for now im playing with a mouse and keyboard and it does have its frustrating moments, but soon ill get a joystick and hopefully it makes the gameplay much better. the $20 I spent were very worth it, i recommended this game to anyone who has played War Thunder before.
