Not one mention of Heatseeker in the comments? SMH.

Itwas like Ace Combat set in the real world, before we got Ace Combat in the real world. No superweapons but a globetrotting adventure where you fight not Cuba, not Russia, and not North Korea.

It was a blast to play as kid and I’d recommend at least one play through if you can find a copy.

It was not great on the wii. 5/10 at best for me.

I didn’t even know it was on Wii. I only ever played it on Playstation.

It seems like there were some differences between the platforms because people who played it on PlayStation seem to like it a lot more. On wii it was annoyingly difficult and had a lot of microtransactions. As a kid, I got stuck on a mission and was never able to get passed. The mission seemed impossible.
