Speaking of control, the analog stick is actually a hindrance because turning the plane left or right requires directional-pad button presses, Your approach to other craft seems to take forever, and all the while you're getting nailed from behind. But the outside-the-plane view makes your jet look like a toy, and the rest of the background doesn't convey a sense of speed.Ī sense of speed is just what this game needs, too-not only is AA's speed slower than Grandma's driving, but the lack of it also severely affects the controls during the heat of battle. AA isn't a bad game, it's just one that could special effects, including great explosions, varied backgrounds, and nice wreckage on downed ships. On a final note, the game will support the Rumble Pak, so expect to really feel it when Morgana's forces send your aircraft hurtling into the side of a mountain (Ouch!).Īerofighters Assault is one of those rare games that you root for because it looks great.but ultimately you're more disappointed than a turkey on Thanksgiving when you actually play it. the preview copy we received.Īerofighters Assault is expected to ship sometime in October, and while the game could still use a bit of work in certain areas (particularly the overall size of some of the maps, which seemed rather small when compared to those in Ace Combat 2), the overall package does look promising. Other modes of play included in AFA are a Two-player Split-screen Dogfight Mode (Death Match), a special Training Mode that allows you to practice your maneuvering, your skill against an Al pilot (a dogfight with the CPU), or your skill against one of the game's Bosses, and finally, a Boss Attack Mode that wasn't yet implemented in. There are defense missions as well-like the Shuttle Defense stage where the object is to protect a space shuttle from attack long enough for it to get off the ground and into space. Another stage is set high in the sky against a huge flying fortress and its escort aircraft. The first stage involves flying through Tokyo (with realistic landscapes-even the Tokyo Tower stands tall in all its glory) to locate and destroy a huge spider-like mech while defending the Metropolitan building. There are 10 missions in total in the Main Game Mode (some of which are hidden and/or bonus missions), each with varying objectives. After you choose your ace, the remaining three pilots will become wingmen and help you out during your missions (similar to how the wingmen in Star Fox 64 help out). Similar in overall presentation to Namco's Ace Combat 2 for the PlayStation, Aerofighters (which is being developed by Paradigm, creators of PilotWings 64) lets you take the role of one of four fighter pilots, each with its own unique aircraft, to do battle against the evil Phutta Morgana and his powerful forces. While most of the past Aerofighters games were 2-D arcade-style shooters, AFA takes on a completely new look: 3-D. ![]() branch of Japan's Video System Co., Ltd!Īerofighters Assault (known as Sonic Wings Assault in Japan) is the latest addition to a long-running series of games that spans from the arcade to the Neo-Geo to the Saturn and the PlayStation and even the Super NES. later this year thanks to McO'River, the U.S. The first flight combat game for the N64 will be making its way to the U.S. ![]()
