 The best WW2 Simulator Ever!!!!! June 27, 2007
39 out of 39 found this review helpful
I've played most of of the World War 2 simulators on the market i.e Call of Duty, Medal of Honour and so on, and I can safely say that you will never have as much fun on a games console as you will on Blazing Angels: Squadrons of WW2.
It took me a while to get past the tutorial level but that may have been because I found the Nunchuck hard to control but i soon realised that you can change what you use control the plane and I now use the wii remote.
You quickly develop a virtual relationship with your Squadron as you journey through World War 2 in a plane of the era that you are currently in at that point in the game including Spitfires and Hurricanes. The best battle is easily the battle of Britain simply because it provides such a diverse range of gameplay and excitement. This is helped by the fact that you can command your squadron to Attack, Form up on you, defend and each member of you squadron has a different ability which is very useful when you have one plane tagging you that you can't catch and shoot down.
You get immense amusement from listenin to the witty banter amongst your squadrons and the allied forces. You also get to hear German and Japanese communications between their planes.
It does get harder as you proceed through the game but you are encouraged by the rating you get at the end of each mission and an overwhelming urge to fly the planes you have just unlocked.
Multiplayer mode is exceptional with a complete range of missions, some in co-op and some head on. You can choose to duel with the other player or join them as you enter a Dogfight with countless numbers of enemies. Multiplayer lets you have everything from the minute you put the disk in the slot and so you do no have to spend hours trying to complete it so that you can enjoy it with your friends.
Finally, this game has amazing graphics. Who says Wii graphics are rubbish? You can see the textures on the individual house of London. You can fly under and around the Eiffel tower. You can see the ripples of the water as you come in low across the sea to ambush a fleet of ships.
A must buy for anyone who loves gaming.
BUY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! April 2, 2007

This is one of those games that if you keep playing it you like it more.
you may stop playing it after level 1 because you caan't do it, but keep trying and when you do it your addicted.
WOW! July 26, 2008
My favourite game for the Wii so far, if you like flight sims come shoot up then this is for you. Love the use of the nunchuck just like stick control.
The Best WW2 simulator by far September 23, 2008
Lets start off. The missions are hard, yes. You are an american pilot yes. But it has all the vintage aircraft, even the spitfire V, which is a BRITISH AIRCRAFT. The graphics are awesome, and the camera operation is so clever. If you press A on the wii remote, it turns you round to see the enemy. Frankly the best WW2 and simulator i have ever played on any platform. Brilliant all round.
Cheesy but enjoyable Arcade Flyer April 9, 2007

Initially it takes a while to get the hang of the controls, but the first (training) mission helps enormously, then the control method goes on to become really good fun (selectable between Wii-Remote/Nunchuck motion sensors or just standard analogue/button controllers).
However, the story line for the on-going missions is pure cheese!
If you can get over The Sun(esque) glorification/sensationalism of history then everyone can enjoy the game for what it is, a very entertaining game that plays very well.
Still not tried the head to head yet (only split-screen and not LAN/WiFi), but if it's as good as the main game then it'll probably cause a lot of RSI as you tend to have to rotate/roll your wrists a lot when using the motion-sensors control method.
