MICROSOFT Combat Flight Simulator is a WWII flight simulator. If you like playing with a flight simulator, then this is your lucky day. CFS gives you lots of opportunities to shoot down planes or blow up tanks.

In this game you can be the English, the Germans, or the Americans. The game is really realistic. When you fly, you can choose how you fly--as a campaign (which consists of many single missions), single flights, or quick combat.

The ground in this game is good. You feel like you are really in the plane. Plus you have real sights to see like Berlin, London, and Paris. The problem I've had with Paris is that I have crashed in the Eiffel Tower just too many times.

There are many different types of planes you can fly: The P-47 Thunderbolt is a strafing airplane that has 2,500-lb. bombs, and eight rockets with 2000 rounds of machine-gun ammunition. The P-51 Mustang comes with 2,000 rounds of ammunition. Both are American planes. The BF109 is a German plane with 120 cannon shots, 2,000 rounds of ammunition, and two big bombs. Finally, the Hurricane is a British airplane that was used to attack German bombers during the battle over London. You can fly only single-seater airplanes. That is the only thing that I hate about the game. I would love to be a bomber pilot and fly those big planes.

A thing that I really like about Combat Flight Simulator is the graphics. I especially like the inside and outside of the airplane. Some time ago I bought another game, called Red Baron II by Sierra, (http://www.sierra.com/dynamix/rb3d/), which is a World War I flight simulator, but the ground and airplane graphics are not as good as those in Combat Flight Simulator.

Now that I have practiced playing Combat Flight Simulator for almost a year, I bet that I can beat Brett Davis at the game. Microsoft has a cool site for Combat Flight Simulator at http://www.microsoft.com/games/combatfs/
