The Game
A10 Cuba as a arcade/simulation flight sim, having played this game on and off for a few years, (I started with the demo then requested it for CGN) it never gets old, even though it may be older than some of you viewing this review. When you start this game you will think oh no....... what do I do? your aim in this game is to complete several different missions with your A10 and most importantly what is equipped to your A10! These missions consist of taking off and taking out a fleet of tanks heading towards your base, to taking off, flying through a war zone and bombing a target protected by far to many Mig's, SAM's and AA fire, but most of the time you do get escorted by Mig's and B52s to make things a little easier, when you first start playing this game controls and game play tactics will result in a hole in the ground for a good few tries, either from you accidentally dropping a bomb, or through you getting hit or just underestimating the handling of your A10, there are many weapons to choose from in the game, Air/Ground missiles, Air/Air missiles, General purpose bombs, Laser guided bombs, Cluster bombs, etc..... all do different things, you can also switch between views of your plane, enemy planes, friendly planes, and weapons that you or your enemy has fired. The gameplay is very realistic, when you first start playing and you start your engines and get ready for take off you will get a shiver down your spine!

Graphics
Graphics are very good for this game, they are like a cross between DOS graphics and Windows Graphics.... mostly square & pixleish.. the screenshots will give you a good idea what i mean as will the game play! Textures of the ground, and of ground clutter and the plane is very smooth and unique. as if it is made out of plastic, or paper or balsa wood...

Sound
Very good sounds, very clear, can be loud and annoying sometimes when you are flying through a barrage of AA fire and having missiles hitting your plane every second. Though you will only hear this if you have the invincible plane option turned on.

Overall
One of the best flight sims ever made, this game has both simulation and arcade qualities, aswell as intense near none stop action.

By Phenom_x8 - Jul 03 2009 - 16:02 I've tried this game many times to work normally on my xp, but still it's always crash a few minutes after playing. Then i tried to install this game in my Linux virtual machine (G OS exactly) by using wine (emulated in win 95). Guess what?? Voila, its played smoothly without crash and black cockpit like chainingzee's. Reccomend you all to played it on wine! (kind of ironic is'nt it? linux windows emulator much better than the windows win95 compatbility mode!! )

By Chainingzee - Apr 01 2009 - 00:20 I have a question, when I start the game in XP the cockpit is black with no details and then errors out to desktop. Anyone know how to fix this?

By GargantulaKon - Dec 03 2007 - 18:45 Finally a fix! After all that work and now the fix is included. Oh well...
