Thankfully for us, there's a plethora of flight simulators out there to choose from. Additionally, you can join your buddies over a network and have a grueling battle. The planes, tanks, ships, missiles, houses, and cities are realistic. You can look out your cockpit from all sides to see where the enemy is, where your comrades are, or where that pesky anti-aircraft missile was just fired from. You can see the view from where a friend or a foe is located, switch to missile view and watch your enemy get blown to bits, or watch the mayhem from several other viewpoints.
Nothing is spared in the air or on the ground.
Game play itself couldn't be any better. Aircraft control is easy to learn, and with a little practice, you can fly the plane, complete missions, and land your craft with the mouse itself. Joystick preferences are available as well, which adds even more realism to the game. What's really cool, though, is the real-time response of the aircraft. Internally and externally, the Warthog responds to your joystick or mouse.
