First of all, let me start off by saying I love anything that flys, and especially anything in the World War II Era, so this review will be slightly biased. However, I will point out it's flaws and let you know unless you are me, you may just mail this game right back.
Comparing this game to part 1, I would have to say they have done much better! The dialogue has been improved, so no more red neck blairing in your ear. The acting is slightly better so you may actually get into it.
The gameplay is constantly shifted from dogfighting to ground attacks to chasing down V-2 rockets and blowing them out of the sky! Either I got used to part 1 or they improved on letting you know exactly what to do for your mission objectives.
Downside: The mostly fictional craft and weapons. The inability to change your view so you can't see what you're trying to shoot because your plane is in the way half the time. Controller scheme is unchangable in most cases. And, cutscenes that you can't pass up even though you've heard them 4 times before that.
It IS a challenging game trying to protect your allies and watch your back at the same time, so you may die more than you'd like, but as I said, I'm biased and will push and push until I beat it.
Sadly, you may never get to use that Multiplayer selection because nearly no one is playing :(
However if you are a fan of Blazing Angels 1, rent this and have yourself a good time! If you were opposed to it, then obviously, stay away! If you were okay with it, try this one... you may be pleasantly surprised.
I enjoyed this game! (Slightly Biased)
