THE GOOD:Graphics, Design, Presentation
THE BAD:
Controls, Fluctuating Difficulty level
SUMMARY:
First the good things about Yager...
Graphics - possible the best looking xBox game yet, particularly the early levels. Gives a great sense of being a real world - lots of other ships flying around, ability to hide behind canyon walls etc. Missions - imaginative design of some missions, particularly enjoyable is the chase the sub down the fjord mission. Presentation - nice unlockable features and replay value.
Now the bad....
Controls - every button on the pad is used for at least two functions - in the middle of a battle the last thing you want is to be trying to remember which button releases a lock and which changes weapons. Difficulty level - seems to fluctuate between challenging (which is good) to rock hard (which is not). Ceiling - you can only fly to a predefined height on a mission which does spoil it...
