Pros
Real feeling of dogfight, many famous aircrafts to choose plus valuable informations on each of them.
Cons
Not suitable for window XP of any versions. If you install this game on them you may be lucky enought to fly only three aircrafts in 3D mode . Vista is fine and guess also work very well on Window 7 but may not be able to open the game help manual.
Summary
Great game, you can even feel the intense of dogfighting. Very realistic still,though the graphic may be a little out of date. The game is carefully made from a lot of research about the war-machines at their glory days. Once you've learnt to master your flying, you will realise that each plans has a distinctive characteristic in which you may find the one that most suit you. If you love Mustang, Hellcat, Corsair, Zero, 109, 190 and many more, you will fall with this game since the first time you sit inside their cockpits. You will never get tired of flying them days and nights and forever. A truly classic!

I would like to update my information, after trials and errors, I discovered that it work on full potential with AMD CPU, the OS is not matter as long as it is window xp and higher. I used AMD Athlon computer and can play with Direct 3 D mode. It is better graphic and can choose all the planes options. You can enjoy riding from A6M to Yak. I also run this game on my friend's computer, all intel CPU don't execute Direct 3D mode only partly not full potential **Please be noted**

War Birds was uploaded here in June of 2002 and you're saying it doesn't work with Windows XP, but it works well with an operating system that wasn't even written yet. Vista was released in January of 2007. That really doesn't make any sense.
Pros
it s tottaly cool great graphics
Cons
neeeeeeeeeeeeeed practise to control the air craft
Summary
I wish that you all download it because its cool and realistic i hope that you all will enjoy it
Pros
Wanted to try the program it looked interesting
Cons
I wanted a program which uses a game controller
Pros
This game is really great. Although it is a demo, it is fully playable and simply addictive. Once you tried it, you'll get hooked on this one.
Good graphics. Smooth, you can see other units clearly when flying close to them. Realistic WWII combat flight sim game. Very addictive. I just tried this game out of curiosity but, oh man,... I got my time passing so past without noticing I've been playing this for almost 6 hours.
A lot of shootings. But there are missions too. This game has Take offs and landings lesson too. So, i can say the this really is a flight sim game.
Cons
Account for online game has payment. Need to create account to play online
Pros
Action is great, not to tough to fly these war birds, but getting kills well that is another story. I spent 5 hrs playing it, the time just "flew"{no pun intented} away.
Must play in 95 256 colors and a joystick is a must.....great game
Cons
Graphics are outdated some what, but A/C feel good.....I don't know if they play on line.......Nothing wrong that would get you up set:}
Summary
Could not install, cabinet file is corrupt under WinXP2002 SP1.
It is nearly impossible to get this game through download. You are better off contacting the publisher and purchasing the software directly. Be sure your machine meets the EXACT specifications, not just the general minimums. Game is very twitchy if it doesn't.
Summary
Very good game, multiplayer
Summary
I've never had any problems with this game. I play it with a mouse and keyboard. Took me a while to learn to fly but now I shoot em down like ducks! Take the time to learn to fly before giving up!

Let me just say i am really doubting your argument for shooting them down like ducks unless you are playing not
in the "veteran" or "ace" levels. in this two levels, once
an enemy aircraft is sitting on your tail it is very. v. hard
to shake him of and throw him front of you if not impossible
at all.
