"Fun for me and my 6yr old!"
Pros: Dogfight mode lets you fight head-to-head or against computer in any of the supported planes.
Cons: Difficult to get the hang of, at first.
Summary: This game is certainly difficult to get the hang of, initially. I only fly, now, in Control Layout 2 (not the default), which uses the knunchuk as a yoke. It's more fun to fly the campaigns when you have help. My 6yr old makes a great wingman, and my 4yr old isn't too bad (note: none of us are big-time gamers). Together, we've completed at least 8(?) missions for each of the factions (British, German, and Russians). I haven't owned a flight simulator game for years, so I can't compare to other modern flight simulators, but this one is pretty fun. I do find myself going back to dogfight mode, when I get stuck on a campaign, so I can feel the thrill of success, again. :)
Don't be turned off by other reviews of the controls. They can be learned, but don't try to use the default control layout.
