WW2 games are a dime a dozen. In fact, I'm actually convinced that blasting Nazis is ranked up with one of the great American gamer past times. Heroes over Europe takes you from the familiar trenches and plops you into a cockpit to blast Jerry back to where he came from. Unfortunately, you're going to want to eject and go AWOL. Just a fair warning for those hard-core flight sim guys out there if that's what you're looking for in HoE, it's not here.

World War II airplanes have always fascinated me; I have Steven Spielberg's 1941 to blame for that. Ubisoft has released another way for me to experience combat flying in WWII without actually having to be a part of it. Heroes Over Europe features some of the most beautiful scenery imagined for a WWII simulator. The question is: Could it actually have more than that? Come fly with me.
