Wing Over 2
PlayStation	From: JVC

It's not often that we come across a PlayStation flight simulator. Those that do come along are usually very poor - Wing Over included. This time around, JVC have done a far better job in all areas. The physics model in particular has been improved vastly, offering realistic flying in each of the twenty or so aircraft.

There's a nice variety of planes too, a veritable history of aviation, with WWII fighters and Hercules transports right through to modern fighter jets. But don't expect to be looping-the-loop straight away... if you are to get any enjoyment out of Wing Over 2, you'll need to work your way through the comprehensive (and highly enjoyable) training missions. Once qualified, there's a lot of fun to be had in the various 'proper' missions - most involve taking off, flying somewhere, blowing something up, flying back and finally landing.

It's all good clean fun, until a building pops-up in your face. Oh yes, Wing Over 2 suffers from horrendous pop-ups. It's fine when you're dogfighting, but not when you have to attack a ground target - "where's that damn radar installation... Aargh! That'll be it then."
Decent game though.
