X-Wing vs. Tie Fighter - Better and Better
Date of Review: Jun 2, 2000
I am a big fan of aerial/space combat simulation games. I have played the original X-wing and follow-up Tie Fighter, which I considered to be great. The newer X-wing vs. Tie Fighter is even better!
PROS:
1) Graphics - the graphics and detail are very good!
2) Music - the music makes you really feel as though you're in the Star Wars world!
3) Voice communication - the verbal communication over the comm is great and realistic!
4) Organization - It is easy to navigate the game and try different options!
5) Versatility - Play for the rebels or the Imperial Navy in several different star fighters!
6) Multi-player - this game allows multi-player option!
CONS:
1) Lack of variability - several of the missions are almost exactly the same.
2) Wingmen - most of the time your wingmen are incompetent and get wiped out in the first few minutes.
3) Mission Impossible - some missions are extremely difficult and it almost seems as if the computer is cheating.
RECOMMENDATION: VERY GOOD GAME for Flight Simulation/Star Wars Fans
