In case it isn't obvious from these screenshots, or the title of the game, Apache: Air Assault is a game about flying helicopters. One wrong move and it all comes crashing down, literally! The chatter on the headsets conveys a sense of urgency, while the constant whir of the helicopter blades reminds you that realism is the name of the game and handling these machines isn't an easy task. Hearing a booming orchestral score play over the surround sound as you pilot your way through a mountain chasm is an experience I won't soon forget. Since the action is frantic and tense through most missions, the score is appropriately epic as if it were right out of an action movie. Just don't get too close to the ground because the illusion might be ruined. Apache: Air Assault is simply a visually stunning game running at a very smooth framerate. Even the locations and terrain are re-mapped with satellite photography to give the world-wide missions ultra realism, from the mountains of the Middle East to the plains of Africa. From every meter and gauge in the cockpit to the personalized decals and paint schemes on each chopper, the remarkable sights are sure to please enthusiasts. Apache: Air Assault may have a limited appeal, but the team at Gaijin Entertainment proves they are good at what they do (namely flight simulation games) and made a game accessible enough for those players that don't own fancy flight sticks, but will still please the hardcore.Īll of the flying death machines in Apache: Air Assault are licensed by Boeing with remarkable detail. Even though no one really asked for it, Gaijin Entertainment has developed one the most surprisingly fun, yet flawed, games this year. Quick survey! How many people were waiting with bated breath for the next new breakthrough of helicopter combat simulators? Anybody? That's what I was afraid of.
