david_pitt's Full Review: Crimson Skies for Windows
Crimson Skies brings you the ultimate in flying and shooting sims. The graphics are great, the story is a new theme, and the game-play is easy. Basically, Crimson Skies raises the bar for the standard on flying/shooting simulators. I bought this game because the price tag was cheap, the graphics were great, and the game itself looked fun. I was right.
The graphics in the game are detailed and new. The planes look really good, and so do the blimps (or whatever they are.) Each and every map is detailed so greatly, that it actually looks like real terrain, down to every crevice, ravine, or rock. The planes also look great and are also really detailed.
The installation of the game goes really fast, and looks really nice. From there, just start the game, and the rest is not that hard. The only thing I had a problem with is the actual controls of the plane, speaking that I don't have a joystick.
The gameplay is really fun, and the whole style of it is actually new. Basically, the game is the adventures of Nathan Zachary, a fictional character, who tries to make himself rich. His planes and blimps look great, fly great and are a stroke of the creative genius. Another problem with the game is that there are only two game modes for one player, Campaign and Instant Action. There are so many levels in Campaign, that it can keep you occupied for weeks.
This game is one-of-a-kind, and I do not think that there are anymore like it out there, overall I would highly recommend this game.
