Apache: Air Assault Review

Post by Steve Farrelly @ 01:31pm 07/03/11 | 6 Comments

In the realm of the console vs PC, no other genre polarises the argument more than simulation. Especially the aerial kind.

It's arguable. that there really is no argument; the PC is simply the best platform for the genre through superior controls and more interface options. This hasn't stopped the genre's sneaky prance through the console world, and as NachosJustice points out, said sneakiness actually does have some value.

So whether you're a flight-sim fan or not, Apache: Air Assault does a bang-up job opening the genre, and this game in particular, to a new audience.

This is the same guys from Wings of Prey. It has a pretty nice graphics engine. I'm willing to give this a go and see if it brings back the Comanche fun times.

I'm not phased about the multiplayer so I'll definitely give it a go.

Am I confusing this with Apache Air Assault released late 2010?? Or is the March 2011 release date an Oz thing?

@ Pirroh - You can do co-op on separate machines but, as far as I could tell, it was only for those flying in separate choppers; not with one player controlling piloting and the other controlling the gun.

@ eagle13 - That was the US release of the same game.
