In the end, BA 2 delivers a nice war game with some flying ace battles.
An with that,comes a cliché in all video games: your boss, some colonel, is an old cynical p****d off guy and your English squadmate has this huge accent. As in the first game ( Blazing Angels, 2006)the voice overs are repeatingly irritating. And it kind of works,although sometimes they seem to do whatever the heck they want. Blazing Angels 2 has some squad commanding options where you can actually give orders to your fellow mates. Now, that's a first: the controls are intuitive and precise, so after a while it becomes a habit to fly.
No need to tell you, a Submarine Spitfire is beautiful and flies amazingly good. Next to this there is a huge variety of planes which all can be customized and upgraded. Hang on, you say, San Francisco? Yeah, I know, it's not a historical game, but shooting down U boots in view of the Golden Gate bridge is a laugh. The good thing with this game is that you literally fly all around the world, from France ( yeah, I flew under the Eiffel tower!), Egypt,Moscow to San Francisco. But nevertheless, as I am a big fan of WW2 games, I thought I'd give Blazing Angels 2 a go on the Xbox 360. I never really was a fan of aviation games as flying planes with a controller really needed some experience and time before handling the gears well.
