I already have CFS2, I bought this and another CFS2 set as backups. The game does play great and you can add on to the game from many flight sim sites planes, utilities ,scenery etc. to make gameplay more varied. It was a good value for the used game The new game was a bit pricey,but was it still brand spanking new.

Won't run on Windows 7 64-Bit. Need to research the problem. Won't run in Windows XP (SP3) compatibility mode. I'll find a machine that it will work on. I'm an IT Network Manager and have the resources to get this running. I've had similar problems with PainKiller and System Schock 2.

The game is great with very good detail of the aircraft, terrain and the various water depths. 1) the aircraft flies like the stick connections are loose and the plane is erratic in flight and a true play be it war or a civilian aircraft, its flight smooth and not going in any direction. this is an example of a smooth flight without holding on to the stick and I am taking this from the autobiography of Colonel Gregory(Pappy)Boyington he would set up four strings to the stick with one attached to him and maintain the plane level in flight while taking a nap to a mission and when he senced a change he would tap one of the strings and bring his aircraft back in position. I would be willing to bet that a plane could be flown for some minute without holding onto the stick once in level flight. 2) there are so many commands that you can't even get to them all if you happen to be playing a game and trying to use all the keyboard commands while playing a game its impossible and someone like me only knows the basic knowledge of aerolons, elevators, flaps, rudder. 3) the other thing that is missing that would make it look more realistic is the turning of the prop as the engine coughs to life and the canopy is open on the ground and in flight which brings drag and would be riped off the fuselage, which could cause damage to the rudder assembly or elevator assembly or both. 4) there are some many axises(prop, throttle, rudder and so on) that to understand all of them you'd practically have to go to flight school to understand most of this stuff the plane to understand how to use them in the game. santiagocantu2005 ebay buyerRead full review
Combat Flight Simulator II has it all.. it can be mod-ed to the extreme. Include all the airports of Flight Sim 98, and the Planes of Combat Flight Sim 1. Indeed, landing and take off from the deck of a carrier is critical to replay the Doolittle missions. Finally, land your PBR on the water. Create your own sceanrios.. I made an "IronClad Mission", Civil War boats..not even airplanes, works great.. loads of fun. My old disks sustained damage, these are the replacements. I caution that the game probably won't work on anything newer than Windows XP.

I have COMBAT FLIGHT SIMULATOR WWII EUROPE SERIES and I wanted the PACIFIC SERIES. I love the old WWII planes to begin with and these games were the only way to actually fly them. The attention to detail is pretty good overall. Sometimes it feels like I'm actually flying the real thing. Having the right joystick also helps. The bad thing is the comic book look of parts of the game. When you look at the box, it's all serious but then you look at the cover of the pilots manual and it's a comic book cover. Same as the game. In the EUROPE SERIES, they put forth better effort on information. With this one, I think they got a little lazy and made it into a comic book. The action is the same. Realism. The full effect of flight, from taking off a WWII aircraft carrier to taking off from a land base to dogfighting with Zero's or any US plane to sinking ships, is the same, AWESOME.Read full review
