Lethal Skies
Release Date: June 1, 2002
Action, planes, PlayStation exclusive, multiplayer, singleplayer
It's hard to find a game on the console that would be a flight simulator. Often it is just a bit more complex shooting, but as the Ace Combat series proves it - the effect of such a procedure can be very successful. However, this is not a regulation.
The action takes place in the near future on Earth destroyed by global warming. Lethal Skies puts the player in the role of an elite troop on the guard of an old, promisingly developing civilization.
You will be able to pilot the most technologically advanced fighters in missions aimed at destroying both ground and air targets. F-15, F-16, F/A-18 and F-22 Raptor, as well as the futuristic latest prototype, covered by a strictly secret "black program", are waiting for the taming. The player will carry out missions in which he or she will often need the ability to cooperate with different units. There will be tasks in which we will carry out devastating attacks on enemy units, but we will also take part in defensive battles, where our task will not allow the destruction of our strategic facilities.
Lethal Skies is a fast and dynamic game - far from being a simulator. While the Ace Combat series is a success with similar assumptions, Lethal Skies will appeal to younger players. In Ace Combat we have climatic winged conversations, addictive, often difficult fights. In Lethal Skies everything is rather schematic and yet not very varied. The graphics are at a good level, but far from the beautiful Ace Combat at times. We like Dual Rock's work, especially with overloads, but these well done shocks do not tear this title out of the average level (corkscrew) in which it was generally created and maintained.
