"Crimson Skies", I just wish they online experience was a little better. I also would love to see a multiplayer version of a modern aircraft flt sim for the Xbox that had the same dogfighting as this game

"Don't let this one FLY under your Radar...", Crimson Skies- High Road To Revenge
Before I start this review, I would like to say that I hate most flying games. Okay. This is one of the best games I've played. I didn't think much of it, as it was a gift, but this game proved me wrong. Aviation games are usually not something I even look at. This game blew me away with its graphics, gameplay, storyline, and sound. I fully recommend this to every one. On a side note, this comes with a demo of Voodoo Vince and some videos.

Graphics- 9.5/10
The only thing you can complain about is that the CG between the action isn't perfect. It is very well done CG though. Everything else is perfect by X-Box standards. The level design of this game is some of the best I've ever seen. You will love exploring the incredible world they give you. Whether it is: canyons, islands, underground cities, or above ground metropolises, you will love it all. You travel to many different worlds to play in, so it's not repetitive either. The final couple stages are put together so well, it's mind blowing. You planes are very well designed and all look very interesting.

Story- 8.5/10
You are Nathan Zachary of The Fortune Hunters. You live in an alternate 1930s; a world in which The Great Depression tore apart the United States. The United States has turned into many different self-governing states. Many have taken to the skies to steal and control. The game starts off with you having a gambling problem. You have lost your zeppelin and your plane. You take your plane back and work to getting your zeppelin back. As time goes on, you are asked to keep Dr. Fassenbiender's plans for a weathering machine safe. The machine could be used for many great things...or it could be used to create F-5 Tornados. Of course, someone knows about the weathering machine and you are on a chase to figure out who it is. Your story leads to many turns and twists and is very well thought out.

Sound- 8.5/10
The music will always match the mood of what you are doing. If you are exploring canyons, you will have quiet, mysterious music playing. If you are engaging in air warfare, you will have fast paced music that gets your heart beating. The voice acting is done very well by most of the characters. Some of the characters just sound too unrealistic though. Weapon and plane sounds are done to perfection.

Gameplay- 9.5/10
This is an arcade aviation game. Does that mean it's only worth a quarter to play? No. It has arcade physics. This mean you won't have you do everything perfect and the game can create some tight squeezes for you too escape. You start in Sea Haven doing missions to try to find Big John. He is the only person that knows how to fly your Zeppelin. You are in a free environment. Much like Grand Theft Auto III, you can do whatever mission you want and in whatever order you like. You will have missions where you: attack planes, use turrets, race, navigate, steal planes, and much more. You ability to use turrets or planes in most missions keeps the game interesting. Also, the variety in missions keeps the game very fun. The bosses on this game are incredible and are some of the most well thought out even compared to God of War. Unlike GOW though, there are many bosses in this game for you destroying pleasure. The Multi-Player in this game is pretty fun, but not really a major focus of the game. There is a game called Wild Chicken that is extremely fun though. You try to catch a chicken and return it to your base for points. Yeah, it's crazy, but its very fun. I haven't played online as I don't have X-Box Live.

Difficulty- 10/10 (Note- This is how much I like the difficulty)
Even on Easy you have a have some challenge. That's the way it should be. If you think that's too easy, you can try any of the other three harder difficulties. Some of the final stages are very hard and you will really feel like you accomplished something. The game is really short, and can probably be beaten in around a day of good gaming. The game will still leave you satisfied after playing it though, and that makes the game perfect.

Overall- 9.5/10
This is one of the best games I've played in a long time. Don't just avoid it because it's an aviation game; buy it now! Really, the game is just that much fun. The single player is one of the best I've played in a long time, and the multiplayer is good fun once you're done. I recommend this to everyone.

"an overall great game for either xbox console", If only more games were like this.
Good graphics for the time. interesting story and concepts. and Great Controls. No this game isnt perfect. Like most games, there is major repetition. protect this, destroy that, pick up this. But that is everygame. This game has just enough variety. A dozen planes all upgradeable, but one. AA Guns. even trucks. Yeah there are a few things puzzling, why is the follow the leader so hard? why is the runway in front of a building you crash into. But honestly thats about it? my only two concerns, one is a level the other is negligble.
The style is very similar to SKY CAPTAIN, with Jude Law, Alternate history. and the Main character looks surprising like the Main character in UNCHARTED.
OVERALL pick up this game, you wont be dissapointed. UNLESS you expect everygame to be GTA. but there is enough variety and optional side missions to compare to that game


"Good game, overall", This game is a lot of fun, story is fairly interesting. It tends to get repetitive in places, boss fights especially, but that isn't constant by any means, and the dogfighting is well done. The online is fairly good, not great but it will fill a few days before you set it down. Planes are interesting, characters are relatively engaging, gameplay and graphics are very polished. Overall, fairly good.

"FUN, FUN, FUN!!!",
This game is a GREAT game, people do play it online but not that many. The maps are great they make the game more fun. You can bring geust into the game and it is a 4-player so if you have a four friends at your house they can play with you. Overall this video game is GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Read this reviews before You buy...

"Absolutely Perfect Sky Fighting Game", Wow! This game is great! I could not believe the first time I put this game in my X Box and set it off. It truly is fantastic. I first noticed the wonderful soundtrack. The music continues on, and is not abrupt, when sinister things happen. It reminds me of the background music you hear during scary movies like "Psycho" etc, when you are watching the protagonist do something he or she is not supposed to be doing.

Flying around is quite natural with the X Box controller. In fact, it reminds me of the ease of most Sim racing games. There is a bit of a learning curve learning about sighting enemies on the map, and flying around them to attack, but once you get the hang of it, you're in like Flint.

Recommended and enjoyed by my whole family, including a 5 year old. This game rocks!

"Fantastically Fun both Single and Multi Player", This aerial combat game involves an alternate universe - it's sort of like the 1930s, but with a twist. You get a lot of planes, fighting and nice graphics. Usually when we play games to review, we play them through and then are done. This is one of the few games that we loved so much that we replayed it many times.

It's sort of a swashbuckling adventure, like Indiana Jones, and the storyline really brings you along through the game. I love flying games, so it was great to have such responsive airplanes and such amazing graphics around you. When you're spinning in loops over a rippling ocean, with a gorgeous sunset overhead, it's hard to imagine anything much better.

I love the 3D strategy involved in handling attacks. I love the flying-through-canyon precise reaction flying involved. This isn't a "flight sim". You don't have to worry about flaps, landing gear, or anything else. Your ammo in your machine guns is unlimited. You just spin, fly, and shoot.

The sound is reasonably good - an action-adventure hyped theme playing that you can turn down if it's not your style. The Dames and Tough Guys all sound in style.

There are plenty of missions here to keep you entertained, and you can replay them at different difficulty levels to keep yourself challenged. Also, if you have XBox Live, you can in essence play infinitely against online players with a variety of really fun games.

Highly recommended!

"Crimson Skies", Xbox owners, allow me to introduce you to the game that will make you forget all about MechAssault. Mech-what? MechAssault. You know, the first-party game that kicked Xbox Live multiplayer onto your radar. Yeah, that one. Well, now you have Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge, the next Microsoft title that will turn your console online and your smack-talking into high gear.

For those of you unfamiliar with the franchise, Crimson Skies is essentially "Indiana Jones" meets aerial combat, only the alternate universe isn't overrun with Nazis but with power-hungry gangs who fly tricked-out planes and are so trigger-happy that Al Capone would blush. With creative scenarios, a focus on action and engaging characters, you'll be sure this game is headed for the silver screen. But Indiana Jones this is not, neither in medium nor in pacing, and as a result, Crimson Skies at times can feel a bit slow and imbalanced.

Part adventure and part dogfighter, Crimson Skies places you in the anti-heroic cockpit of Nathan Zachary, an air pirate who's out for revenge and, if it happens to come his way, a little fortune and glory too. Along the way, he’ll meet a lady (or two), discover a nature-be-damned plot against the civilized world (a la "Wild Wild West") and embark upon an intricately weaved tale of his own.

Unlike "Indiana Jones," though, Nathan takes to the skies rather than a mine cart and relies on his trusty plane-mounted artillery rather than a bullwhip. And that, my friends, is where Crimson Skies grabs you by the joystick and gets your arcade-loving heart a-fluttering. Forget about flight sims, because Crimson Skies is arcade flying at its finest. From barrel rolls and Split S's to air braking and upside-down 180s, this game would make any pilot rethink the laws of gravity. The controls are easy to both learn and master, too, which means novices and pros are separated only by their ability to plan ahead and remain dedicated to the game, not by their familiarity with the instruction manual.

The arcade goodness doesn't stop there. Unlimited primary ammo? Check. Heat-seeking and cluster-bomb secondary weapons? Check. Dozens of airborne enemies swarming at once while terrestrial turrets fire on you with unfathomable power? Check. Yes, Crimson Skies seems to have it all. But not quite.

Each "level" is a virtual landscape that encompasses some serious real estate. The first, for example, is a small but tall island where you get comfortable with looking up, down and around for enemies. The second level is a wide-open desert so expansive you'll be thankful the Xbox has a built-in hard drive. Subsequent levels include an interpretation of a 1930s tech-savvy Chicago and other era-appropriate settings, and each presents some unique expansions of the basic gameplay.

The objective in each level changes depending upon your progress in the story, but invariably each level involves completing four to six "subgoals," most of which amount to mini-games that break up the dogfighting. Several levels ask you to get out of your plane and man a turret, for example, be it to protect an illegal stash of taxis or to defend your Zeppelin "base" from incoming fighters. Other subgoals involve switching planes to complete an objective or winning a race to win cash, which, once you fly another plane and thereby "unlock" it, can be used for upgrades or to repair your current craft in mid-mission.

Yet while each of these levels has slightly different subgoals, the actual gameplay behind those subgoals remains static from level to level. A turret battle is a turret battle is a turret battle, no matter how different the aircraft you're trying to shoot down. Yes, the scenarios will literally leave you sweaty with their frantic pace, but after three or four turrets you'll play through them just to get it over with and move on to the next dogfight rather than play them for enjoyment.

In the long run, of course, that ultimately speaks to the quality of the dogfights. And there's really no other way to say it: you've never played a dogfighting game this good. There's just something about the combination of tight controls, intense speed and a fully 3D environment. Air Force Delta Storm had the speed and dimensions, but its handling was too sim-like to let you stay in "hot pursuit" for very long. Lethal Skies II had the speed and environments, too, but the AI was so challenging that the only thing in hot pursuit was your PS2 controller headed for the TV screen. Crimson Skies, though, strikes such a perfect balance of speed, control, level design and challenging-but-not-impossible AI that you truly feel like you're an alternate-1930s-universe pilot.

Still, there's nothing like knowing you're hunting (or being hunted by) a human opponent, and Crimson Skies comes complete with some outstanding split-screen, system-link and Xbox Live multiplayer options. What's interesting about the split-screen with three players, though, is that it divides the screen in thirds horizontally, which makes for great lateral visibility but horrible up-down visibility. It's a unique treatment, but I've got to question the use of this technique in a game that relies so heavily on both horizontal and vertical sighting. But naturally, if you don't play with three players total, this is a moot point entirely.

Crimson Skies has the standard Dogfight, Flag Heist (Capture the Flag) and team-based modes, but our personal favorite here at DailyGame is the hilarious and addictive "Wild Chicken." This mode is sort of like Stayaway in Midtown Madness 3 with a bit of capture-the-flag base-defending flair. None of the game modes is a stinker, and every one runs smoothly online. Even with 16 people playing at once.

One of the most comical details of "Wild Chicken" is watching the feathers fall from your newfound "wingman" and act like a contrail, and it's details like this that make Crimson Skies feel as believable as an alternate-universe-with-tricked-out-planes videogame can. From blinking landing lights and animated flaps to deformable trucks on the streets of Chicago, Crimson Skies delivers Big Time in the graphics department. For Pete's sake, how many times is an Xbox editor going to say "Best. Water. Ever."? Well, apparently one more, because this game's got it. It's also got damage-sensitive "animations" and a framerate that never wavers.

Then why, oh why, must the non-dogfighting waver as it does? This game is fun. It's a blast. I'd even say it's the most enjoyable non-FPS on Xbox Live. But its development team was apparently so focused on making an outstanding dogfighting game that the "other" gameplay elements in Crimson Skies are a step or two behind. On their own, the turret scenarios and races are just fine, but taken with the rest of the outstanding gameplay mechanics, the game can feel a bit unbalanced and slow.

But pop in another controller or log on to Xbox Live, and all those issues fade into the horizon. If you have an Xbox Live account and/or at least one friend in the world, Crimson Skies is the next great multiplayer experience on Xbox. If you're a hermit or otherwise socially challenged, the game still has something for you, with an adventuresome story and entertaining dogfights that are the stuff of arcade dreams. Just don't go into the game expecting the End All, Be All of gaming. Crimson Skies is fantastic, but it's a little gameplay balance short of legendary.


"Graphics...That's It", Crimson Skies is not worth a penny. While the graphics are fairly good, the game itself sucks. You never step out of the airplane and the game is difficult from the beginning. This game is unfairly difficult and will easily make even the most patient gamers frustrated. The game gets old after only a few minutes and nothing new changes in the game except locations. All missions are relatively the same and this game provides no lasting entertainment. I would highly suggest not buying this game. Believe me, this game is NOT WORTH YOUR MONEY.

"Surprisingly good port!", I thought this was going to be a disaster like Mechassault, but this game is actually MORE fun then the PC version. There are a lot more things to do, environments are a lot better looking and the turret shooting is a nice addition.
