Pacific Fighters review:1 stars (Buy a better game) - I bought it because of the ratings, but it's not much better than Chuck Yeager's air combat.5 stars (The Best WW2 Airwarfare Game Available) - While some may complain about patches being released, the simple fact is that the game developers of Il-2 listen to their customer base and make the sort of updates that players request.

With the number of flyable airplanes growing with each free upgrade in addition to the number of maps and ground targets, the mission opportunities for this game are limitless. A mission builder allows you to set-up exactly the sort of missions that you want to fly.

Excellent and effortless multiplayer support is simply the jewel in the crown of this excellent game. I can't recommend it highly enough.1 stars (Game Won't Initialize) - I bought this game because of the good reviews. It appeared to install OK, but when I tried to start the game, I got an error message saying "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000142)." I rebooted my computer twice, and reinstalled the game twice to no avail. I did a Google search on the error, and found that other people were reporting the same error in discussion groups. One person offered a solution that involved changing a video setting, and I tried that. Not only didn't it work, but I began getting Nvidia error messages unrelated to the game because of the settings I changed. I recommend avoiding Pacific Fighters until Microsoft makes a patch available.
