@LegoScout09 The A button makes the camera turn and actully guides the plane to the target... very helpful not annoying. The control are very natural and are very easy to learn;10 second. The game is always fun... never boring.
Please don't make generalized comments about arcade flight sims (or anything else.) Blazing Angels is definately the best I've found when it comes to flight sims for the Wii. (and other game consoles, as far as I know.) And I've watched videos and reviews on quite a few flight sims for Wii. Blazing Angels is wayyyyyyy better than others I've seen.
Holy crap dude, your a kick ass pilot! It to bad you weren't there to help then. Don't loose you head, it's what they want. I don't know what they want but there asking for a kick in the ass!
I think he was referring as to whether the protagonists flew "in every major incident involving aerial combat in WWII". The reason I never said anything is as unbelievable as it is you never really know. But yes, Pearl Harbor was horrific.
@99lavos It's a Hawker Typhoon, I was going to use the Gloucester Meteor, but for some reason all Jet aircraft are disabled on this mission. My favourite is the Hawker Tempest Mk2: It looked great; it was fast and was a competent ground attack and aerial combat plane... at least... in this game it was. XP
In Mike. Tyson's words... YYYYYYYYYYeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeSSSSSSSSSS It was one of the first games released with the Wii, and in my opinion. The game play is a little mind-numbing at the beginning (due to the fact they're the easy levels) but as you progress the gradual difficulty soon proves a challenge which you can't help but want to beat.
@JustinBlottin Not really. This is an arcade game. If it was at all realistic he would have stalled the engine and smashed into the run way at about 1:50.
It's tedious. What helps is if you get an upgraded plane. A pretty fast one, but the default plane is actually pretty good to use in that level. Plus... Ace standards are based on how many things you kill, and how quick you did it. Just bomb everything and enjoy your medal. =P
@LegoScout09 The camera tilts when you hold down the A button and it centres itself on your selected target (Makes it easier to aim and turn). The controls are natural to me since I've played for a long time and I just really like the game. In all honesty the game does get boring when you get great at it. Though you end up making things really hard for yourself (Like fighting jets with a WWI Bi-plane). Playing through missions on their first time are always interesting, but no replay value.
@MrRCT3freak I was thinking about that and why they don't utilise it in more Flight simulators. I know I kept my finger on the trigger in this game but I think game developers find it a bit too... difficult to try and create a game where the actual "Fighting enemy" challenge is just as difficult as the "Refuelling and reloading".
You shouldn't need that. The base should be automatically targeted in red. Just fly toward the target markings and take your picture. (You should be able to see it when taking pictures). Plus, using the camera tracker with the "A" button will DEFIANTLY help.
I recommend, using arcade style control and the tracking camera to help your aim (Don't let go even if your target is right in front of you). Also, try predicting turns.. Don't keep turning until your enemy is in the cross hair, turn out of the turn early.
I got this game for the Wii and its awsome sometimes i get mad because the way you turn. The only thing wrong with game it the controller that you turn with. Otherwise I LOVE the game.
You have two bars on the screen which have green squares in them. When both bars are full you are flying in the right direction. One indicates distance and the other indicates direction. Hope this helps.
@MrRCT3freak I play IL2 with limited ammo and boy is it a challenge. You're lucky to get even 15 seconds. I always wondered - did WW2 fighters have 'ammo indicators' or was it simply up to the pilot to remember how many rounds they'd fired?
It's the only way to effectively take down your enemies, I guess to put it bluntly its a bit like an aimbot. Since you can see what your aiming at whenever you want and turn accordingly. (Did I mention it actually allows you to make tighter turns?)
yep pc and xbox versions are horrible the ps3 and wii are alot better (as in better voice acting and cutscenes being able to choose your plane better controls etc altho the hardest mission is top secret not rebaul)
@@darth_diminishthewolf8945 god fucking damn i remember how rage inducing that mission was. havent touched the game in 9 years now but i remember ever turn and crevice of that stupid fucking iceberg
have a few questions, how should I fly the plane and how do I keep the cross-hairs steady? What settings do you recommend? I used to be ok at this game but havent played it in like a year, also how do you turn quickly? I try making the plane tilt all the way and using the brakes but cant ever manage to follow the other planes, how do you follow the other planes well? You look like you know what you are doing
Very true. Although I MUST complain about the X-box and PS3 version which had VERY different voice acting. Making the game simply terrible to play. Luckily in the Wii version People are a little... Quieter.
OK, like at 2:05, why does it turn the camera like that? Does it get annoying? Do the controls feel natural & are they hard to learn? Does the game get boring after a while? these are some criticisms of the game & im wondering if they're true. Anyone can answer
I think, but the Wii version and the Xbox and PS3 versions were VERY different. The Wii version is best... Not because I play it... Because the gameplay and voiceacting on the PS3 and xbox is pants...
When i got to turn I slow my engine all way to as slow as it will let me then i turn and that is how i make really tight turns but when i am dogfighting on the game i just fly around killing the enemy.
I understand that arcade flight sims don't take real tactics or skill; if you tried to fly in combat the way you fly in arcade flight sims, you'd be shot down almost immediately. However, I (and many other people) find them very fun. Why did you watch this video if you hate arcade flight sims anyway?
Yeah, I've seen a few videos of the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions; is it just me, or are the graphics terrible? Becasue the look pretty bad to me. There seemed to be no textures at all.
@@notjeffrey_2485 During the attack on Pearl Harbor, U.S. pilots George Welch and Kenneth Taylor managed to get airborne under fire-twice-and shot down at least six Japanese planes between them. In all, 14 American pilots got off the ground on that Dec. 7 and shot down 10 Japanese planes, according to the 25th Infantry Division's Tropic Lightning Museum.
This is my childhood holy hell, so nostalgic, i played this when i was 8
Me too
Bro I’m here in 2020
Holy shit, this brings back memories!
same
I remember playing this game on the wii in 2009, ahhh the nostalgia.
Easily my favorite game for Wii, eish i still had it :(
Insert name here same
Did I hear someone Yelling "BONZI!!!" I haven't got to this mission yet because I have only had the game for like a week.
My favorite plane for fighting zeros is the upgraded Hawker Hurricane II. Good, heavy firepower and very maneuverable.
Nice video.
i remember this mission. i loved it. there were so many planes you could shoot down as many as you liked.

It's been a long time since I've seen this game, still have it
Lucky my man, my wii broke about 5 years ago

Nostalgia
@sgthootnany yeah it has improved since 2008
Probably, although it's more a direct father to the Hawker Tempest.
You have two bars on the screen which have green squares in them. When both bars are full you are flying in the right direction.
One indicates distance and the other indicates direction. Hope this helps.
great graphics

thanks, i think i may buy it
that's right, mate!
Nice yt recomendations
HELLS BELLS, the pc version does not allow you to select a different plane.
yep pc and xbox versions are horrible the ps3 and wii are alot better (as in better voice acting and cutscenes being able to choose your plane better controls etc altho the hardest mission is top secret not rebaul)
@@darth_diminishthewolf8945 god fucking damn i remember how rage inducing that mission was. havent touched the game in 9 years now but i remember ever turn and crevice of that stupid fucking iceberg
Plane is outstanding,
HIghest firepower in the game, hence why most of the enemies go down after just a few miliseconds of fire.
have a few questions, how should I fly the plane and how do I keep the cross-hairs steady? What settings do you recommend? I used to be ok at this game but havent played it in like a year, also how do you turn quickly? I try making the plane tilt all the way and using the brakes but cant ever manage to follow the other planes, how do you follow the other planes well? You look like you know what you are doing
Damn, you're good.
Mine: Upgraded Tempest.
Looks nice... Tis fast and gots serious firepower.
I want this on SNES but we can't all be happy...
I'm pissed the sequel was only made for PC.
hey, does anyone has a video of the mission where you must land your plane and change it ???
Very true. Although I MUST complain about the X-box and PS3 version which had VERY different voice acting. Making the game simply terrible to play. Luckily in the Wii version People are a little... Quieter.
for the wii graphics rock
Yes, also sorry about the wait.
I really dont like the Top Secret Mission because i always crash into the ice.
GG!)
a cheat 4 the game is hold + nd - nd 1221 try nd it will unlock all missions nd planes
OK, like at 2:05, why does it turn the camera like that?
Does it get annoying?
Do the controls feel natural & are they hard to learn?
Does the game get boring after a while?
these are some criticisms of the game & im wondering if they're true. Anyone can answer
Just get something like 10,000 Kills on enemy planes.
30,000 kills on ground targets and 1,000 kills on ships... Or that's what I think anyway.
I think, but the Wii version and the Xbox and PS3 versions were VERY different.
The Wii version is best... Not because I play it... Because the gameplay and voiceacting on the PS3 and xbox is pants...
@LuigiSkyskip
is it based on true story!?
When i got to turn I slow my engine all way to as slow as it will let me then i turn and that is how i make really tight turns but when i am dogfighting on the game i just fly around killing the enemy.
Yup
Haha 6 plane combo!
3:32

@erikaalvarez75 thanx dude ,it works !!!!!!
Wii, I'm not really sure... Just blow shit up and you'll get there soon enough.
Yeah, I've seen a few videos of the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions; is it just me, or are the graphics terrible? Becasue the look pretty bad to me. There seemed to be no textures at all.
I wish they made a Modern version of this game with planes like F-15,F16s,MiG29s
Red Acura ace combat 7
is this a good game? it looks fun
what are the controls for wii
Im curious is this the first blazing angles
wheres Rafe and danny?
@MynameisElliott Fate.
But your Wii in your computer
Wii remote only? Isn't that difficult?
I've tried it and I was like:
"So it's up to... Wait... No..." Crash.
4/5 Yeah, good game.
is this game on the old xbox?
well the raf did not have planes there and only two p-40s were up not counting the enterprise planes
if you use the focke-wulk or n1k, you'd get better kills
I beat the game to
wii
is this game worth 20 bucks?
In this mission, are you playing as the Japanese or the American?
An American
Single Blind Trial Thanks.
Mr. Smash American stupid
Branden Koll I'm not stupid. I wanted to know because no Americans got to there planes to fight off the Japanese. So, I'm not stupid
