IL 2 Sturmovik Computer Game

Pros: More variety than earlier game, additional aircraft and more maps

Cons: Career mode has been amended, but you still have to complete every mission successfully

The Bottom Line: A good flight simulator coupled with an excellent damage model and graphics

Review: This is the updated IL2 Sturmovik game by Maddox Games and distributed by Ubisoft. The game is designed around the Russian fighter-bomber of the title, which mimics a realistic flight model in a World War 2 environment. My game came in a DVD case with ...

Pros: Interior cockpits with moving components, attention to detail and accuracy, a realistic flight model

Cons: Career missions can take a long time, a rigid career structure

The Bottom Line: Well detailed flight simulator that is cheap as chips and still fun to play.

Review: ~Summary~ This is a very good game that is best suited to people who prefer realistic flight simulators, it is best played with a joystick. Each mission may last a long time and the game cannot be saved mid-mission. The career structure is rigid and the ...

Pros: Lots of mission, mission editor. Game doesn't need CD to run.

Cons: Lack of views. Germany could have bombers for you to fly. OpenGl. Unrealizam.

The Bottom Line: In WW II air support was important part of frontline. Protect your units by blowing enemies up and bringing bombers down. Great simulation, with highly detailed gameplay.

Review: IL2 is one of better air combat simulations. It has highly realistic level of flying. Depends if you play on easy, medium and hard. On easy you turn off things as turbulence, or engine overheats, or limited ammo, but on hard level you experience ...

Pros: very good graphics, realistic flight modeling, stability of game

Cons: manual

The Bottom Line: Too good for the price paid. Try the demo (146MB download).

Review: This game came out in 2001, and I just bought it in July 2003 for $8.00 on ebay. There is a newer v ...

Pros: Unparallelled flight realism, graphics, and gameplay.

Cons: Steep learning curve.

The Bottom Line: The best flight sim ever made (with exception to it's sequal, Forgotten Battles) Anyone who says CFS3 is better is mistaken.

Review: IL-2 Sturmovik is already widely regarded among the flight sim community as the best flight video game ever made. Its impossible to describe everything about this game.
First of all, it took me several hours to learn how to play the game and get the...

Pros: Everything, weapons, flight, ease, and if you want it hard to fly. NO cpu crashes

Cons: no fast forward, X8 is not enough. No other faults

Review: If you cant by happy with any of the IL2 games then your out of luck, there is nothing that can compair. For the first time even the way that bullets leave the gun to how they hit the ground it looks amazinly REAL. One thing that they got right, but I ...

Pros: This game has very detailed graphics

Cons: There is a very steep learning curve

The Bottom Line: This game has a very steep learning curve, therefore it is only recommended for the serious of heart.

Review: Let me start off by saying that I enjoy simulation games and in particular I like flight simulators. I have played MS Combat Flight Simulator I and II, European Air War, Janes Fa-18, Janes F-15, Red Baron and the F-22 Raptor series. I found this game...
