Apache Air Assault for PlayStation 3 Reviews by Gamers

I almost rented this, but at the last moment chose to buy it after playing the demo. It's been quite a while since I've played a good simulator on a console. This is indeed an EXCELLENT, complex chopper SIMULATOR! I've been playing sims for years. This game took a bit of practice with expert settings. After a while though: you can really appreciate the maneuverability of the Apache. This game exceeds in the realistic feel and maneuverability of the chopper.

The only downfall are the missions. As with many other sims out there: they're generally about the same as seen in other sims and feel somewhat generic. there are other things that make up for this:

For the True Simulator Fan: It DOES offer the horrible modern-day 'easy' controls. but if you're not a sim fan: you'll enjoy this settings. For the true fan: You'll LOVE the advanced realistic mode. Master it and you'll be king of the skies.

Unique Co-op style playing with muliplayer: gunner and Pilot/navigator.

Gun controls: The control and feel of your main gun feels real, using the heat signatures to find targets hiding on the land or sea is really fun!

All-in-all while the game's missions have your typical 'sim' generic feel: the controls are amazing, gunnery controls are awesome and co-op is fun and IMO make up for the somewhat generic missions. Not to mention I can't remember when the CONSOLE had a true sim like this released. It's worth a rent. or in my case: A purchase.

Hone your skills in the Chopper and you'll complete all Req. in 15 Hours or Less! Spread out gameplay over a week and you'll have a blast.
AAir A is well worth the playthrough and online Games are Easy to find/create. Campain is realistic fealing but functional on a standard controller.
Lift your patience tolerance on a few levels Once You know how to beat them and get through the Game even on Training' You will Find it fun to Re-play on a harder difficulty or try some Co-op online or Local.

Enjoy
I'd say it's a solid 6-7 Rated Game but a 9-10 for Quick and Fun Platinum Trophy/ Achievement Collector.
