What about the game?
Part of the Air Conflicts series, Vietnam puts you in the Vietnam war as an American combat pilot, within the first 30 minutes you’ll be flying a jet, flying two helicopters (Cobra and Huey), being a gunner and mowing down the enemy troops. Controls are easy to get to grips with, not full on flight sim affair, but pitched well between being to ‘arcadey’
I enjoyed this game, despite its biggest drawback with is the restricted flight space, which in itself wouldn’t be a huge problem other than the big red grid that ruins the immersion, a much simpler turn back warning could have been a better choice. I’ve played the two other games in this series Secret Wars and Pacific Carriers, its quite different to those, especially secret wars with a wider open game area.
Air Conflicts Vietnam still is a good flight combat game, if you like this type of game, go grab a copy, as in the current gen gaming, there isn’t a massive choice so going back to the good old Xbox360 isn’t as bad as it may seem!
So for now, why not watch me play the game on YouTube, give it a like if you like, if not no worries, see you next time.
