Summary:
When i saw this game i liked the features of this game that were on the box. There are some people out there who would say "duh...where are the guns?" Unfortunatly for them there aren't any which may make some people not buy this game. But a good game doesn't have to be about death, blood, explosions etc. And this game proves it!

Summary:
Basically you fly planes around in a no-plot flying game. Your supposed to collect some kind of puzzle or something but they don't really bother to tell you why. "They" say that there's the tower of Maximus, and you have to fly to it and discover something. So why do you fly to like four islands and go all over the place instead of flying to the stupid tower right ahead of the starting island?

Summary:
I remember playing a game like this at one point in my life... oh yes, it was Red Baron, Pilotwings, and countless other sluggishly controlled bi-wing and world war II flight simulators. Good thing first-impressions are not always an indicator of what lies beneath.

Sky Odyssey appears to be a dinky, no-name production company's attempt to be "extreme", with a title and logo that I'm sure millions of prospective gamers glanced at, then picked up some random first-person, bloody shooting game of the week. But, I was quickly rewarded with an expansive game that challenges and amazes, with huge levels, RPG-like skill point systems, and flight challenges that actually call for planning ahead, taxing even veteran gamers.

Overall a 4.5, but considering this grading scale it is worth more of a five then a four.

Price Paid:  $12.00 from rental at blockbuster x3

Summary:
This was the greatest game I have ever Played. The controls are good, the graphics are good, the sound is good, the game is good. The only bad thing I can say about it is that the story line is not the best i've seen, it's good but not great. This is truly the best flight sim ever created. Not so realistic that its boring but not so fake that if you know about planes it's stupid.
