 Great Game For WWII Buffs! August 10, 2008
J. G. Vernon (Stokesdale, NC USA)
A great ace combat/flight simulation/action game, especially for those World War II history buffs out there. And if you're a particular fan of the war in the Pacific theatre, you will truly enjoy this game! The details, graphics and historical content of this game are pretty authentic, and lend an added aire of excitement and enthusiasm to it's play. The instructions and controls are fairly straight-forward and easy to understand; i.e., not so complicated that it takes away from the overall fun of playing the game. If you're an 'older' video game enthusiast, like myself, I think you'll find "Heroes Of The Pacific" a worthwhile and satisfying addition to your game collection.
OMG Great game! May 11, 2008
Brandon Moorhouse (Atlanta, TX USA)
If you are looking for a fun ww2 airplane game this is it what it lacks in grapics it makes up for in gameplay it does everything it says on the game case then some I don't know what I would have done with it!
 would have been 6/5 stars if it had worked May 3, 2008
J. T. Rossmann (Raleigh NC USA)
I paid about 20$ for this game brand new in the case sealed and i was practricly standing on my mail box waiting for it. When i got it, to my suprise, instead of playing for hours without blinking, it did not work...... it loaded up to the menus and that alone was why i gave it 1 star... before the campaign it just stayed on the loading screen for maby an hour and i just gave up on it.....dont buy this game! save yourself the hard earned dowe and buy san andreas and shoot down jets with the "rustler" instead.
Great Game & Great Service May 1, 2008

 Way Too hard!!!!! April 21, 2008
Douglas Noon (Summerfield, NC)
I agree with all who said that the game is WAY TOO HARD! I hold a private pilot license and have also flown radio control planes for over 25 yrs so I know what I am saying when I say that the flight charateristics AND the campaign goals are rediculously difficult even in the "rookie" mode. The game may have some possitive value for those who know where and how to get cheats or who enjoy doing the same level 25-30 times and still not advancing but I am not one of those. I had a successfull career as a watchmaker and jeweler so patience and precision are not problems for me but enough is enough. Also there is little or no instruction on how to accomplish any of the goals in each scenario. I was initially pleased with finding a WWII flying game but now very disapointed and have quit playing it since the idea is to have fun not to get so completely frustrated that you want to throw the controller through a window.
