Too hard!!!!
This game was hard!!!! Wii needs to improve before this game was published. It took forever to pass the first level and I was stuck on the third level. I think this game was made too hard. Actually, this game should have been made with Wi-Fi to play against other people around the world. Buy another game!

Decent Game
This is a decent game for anyone interested in the airborne battles of WWII. The controls are a little tricky to get used to but once you get the hang of it, it is addicting. The graphics are ok. I dont play it all that often but it's fun to pick up and play every once in a while.

Fun Game
I'm not a game junkie by any means, in fact, this is the first video game I have ever bought for myself. With that as background I find this game loads of fun, but frustrating at times. Not frustrating from the game controls etc. standpoint, but from my inability to get past the "protecting my wingman" scenario. My next purchase will be one of the jet fighter games.

Blazing Angels
Don't waste your money unless you are into frustration. In both the Training and regular missions, the enemy plane is always behind you and no matter how hard you try, you can't get behind them and you get shot down. They have a time limit for the dogfight of 3 minutes, if you get 1 out of 12 of the enemy planes you are lucky.

I'll pass!!!

Highly Enjoyable For Anyone Interested in WW2 Planes
Growing up in England a short while after the WW2, I have always wanted to fly a Spitfire and a ME109, and this program allows you to without going to all the effort of learning a true flight simulator. Blazing Angles neatly deals with the period before the US entry into WW2 by following the story of an American volunteer in the RAF so that Dunkirk and the Battle of Britain can be included - before we all dash off to the Pacific, etc., etc.. The historical maps of the campaigns are well done and might well end up teaching kids more about the actual course of the war than they would get in their history lessons at school which seem to only cover domestic aspects of the World Wars.

Oh, and flying a Spitfire - even by proxy - is just as much fun as I thought it would be...
