Apache Havoc

SimHQ Apache Havoc review by Richard "Flexman" Hawley

"Be warned, don't confuse realism with difficulty, Apache Havoc is not as rich in avionic features like Jane's Combat Simulation titles, even so, it will still present quite an ego shock to experienced rotary sim pilots. Add to that the chance to fly some quality CIS hardware with stonking co-operative campaign play. If knobs and buttons is all you seek in a helicopter simulation then look elsewhere, but if you want something that looks good, exercises your high end PC and provides a long term challenge then this will sit well on your hard disk."

CombatSim Apache Havoc review by Eric Marlow

"Although my default attack vector is from a hard-core aspect angle, I realize that most people who play simulations are not of the hard-core variety. I tend to think that Empire/Razorworks hit the nail on the head in terms of meeting their intended goals and delivering a sim that offers a little something for everyone."

Overall rating 85%

GameSpot UK Apache Havoc review by Kenji Takeda

"Apache Havoc is a formidable debut that matches Longbow 2 in every respect, and surpasses it in many. Above all, it manages to be a delight to fly without becoming over-complicated."

Frugal's World Apache Havoc revisited by William "BBall" Ball

"Excited by the prospect of Empire Interactive's upcoming Helo sim Comanche Hokum, BBall decided it was time to take a look back at their previous offering Apache Havok. The thought of being able to link this classic sim to Comanche Hokum is pretty exciting. So does Apache Havok still cut it 1 year on? Here are BBall's thoughts on the current king of the Helo Hill."

CombatSim Visit to Razorworks feature by Kurt Giesselman

"Blockbuster is certainly a good description of Razorwork’s most recent combat helicopter simulation, Enemy Engaged Comanche vs. Hokum. We have had it on the continent for several months and I was fortunate to be a participant in the closed beta test before its release in Europe. This hard core flight simulation is just hitting the shelves in the US."

Sim Arena Comanche Hokum review by Chris "Dr. Bones" Von Seggern

"There's an amazing immersiveness to this great sim, something that just sucks you in until your spouse has packed up and left, the dog runs away, and the house is on fire. EECH has that quality in spades. It looks great, the action is intense and unpredictable, and it all fits together beautifully..."

GameSpot (US) Comanche Hokum review by Bruce Geryk

Of all the helicopter simulations released this year, Razorworks' product is in a class by itself, and it will certainly earn itself a place on the ballot when the best-sim-of-the-year nominations come around. For the past three years, fans of hard-core simulations have wished for a helicopter sim to exceed the impossibly high standard set by Longbow 2, and Enemy Engaged is the worthiest candidate yet.

Frugal's World Comanche Hokum review by William "BBall" Ball

"… Does that mean it's stolen the title of "Holy Grail of Combat Helicopter Simulation"? You be the judge, I'll just say that it will be on this yahoo's hard drive for a very, very long time."

DOGFIGHTER Comanche Hokum review by Dusty "Redwolf" Rhodes

"If you are waiting to see what is said about this sim before you spend your hard earned dollars, wait no longer! Jet simmers, I give you fair warning: if you buy this sim you stand the chance of becoming a rotor head! You will simply not find a more comprehensive and easy to play flight sim on the market that works right out of the box. Incredible attention to detail, backwards compatibility with EEAH to give a total of six completely dynamic campaigns and numerous skirmeshes/mini-campaigns with four gunships makes this title a most serious contender for sim of the year. Is this what Longbow 3 might have been like? I think so, if not better!"

BarrysWorld Comanche Hokum review by MikeyBear

"Superb job guys, a fantastic experience, a joy to play, more please. If you have any love for chopper sims or modern flight sims in general at all get this game, you won't be disappointed. It is nothing short of awesome."

GamesDomain (UK) Comanche Hokum review by James W. Hunt

"For the helicopter fan, I simply cannot recommend this title enough. Razorworks deserves every bit of the strong praise and sales figures they have received thus far. I hope its popularity will continue to grow once it reaches worldwide distribution - since that's the only way we're going to continue to see titles of such startling quality in the current market of uninspired simulation designs. If you have a buddy who is into simulations, too, get him the game as well and enjoy the multiplayer together."

GamesDomain Highly Recommended Award

GameSpot UK Comanche Hokum review by Kenji Takeda

"What sets Comanche Hokum apart from the competition is the organic feel of the missions embedded in the dynamic campaign. The smaller skirmish maps provide a quick fix and can be played out in an hour or two, and are more efficient for multiplayer games. For owners of Apache Havoc, this is a must-have as it seamlessly links the two games, allowing you to fly all four helicopters in the campaigns."

SimHQ Comanche Hokum review by Richard "Flexman" Hawley

"Rotor fans unite. Fly this sim. Play it. Eat it. Savor every byte. With a possible of 6 campaigns in total, there is enormous replay value here. Working multiplayer capability is the icing on the cake."

CombatSim Comanche Hokum review by Kurt "Froglips" Giesselman and "Zero G"

"Over all this is with out a doubt the best helo sim out there. Razorworks and Empire have done a very good job of releasing a very stable sim with very few bugs."

"I have no problem telling anyone who is into virtual flying to rush out and get a copy of EECH."

Dogfight.com Comanche Hokum review by David "Spawnbob" Renton

"So to sum it up if your a flight sim fan, whether hard core or not, airplanes or helicopters, Comanche Hokum has something to offer all of you."

Bobulous Central Comanche Hokum review by Bobulous

"First, a warning: I'm normally a 3D action-shooter game fan, so my review of this game is set against almost zero knowledge of the serious simulation genre. So any hardcore simulation veterans might disagree entirely with my opinion. Therefore, this review is for frag-heads who also understand that realism is good sometimes."

"The gameplay and phsyics are superb. Playing campaigns is rewarding because of the importance of your role and the effect you have on the big picture."

"A complex game but one that people new to simulations should have no problem getting started with. Exciting enough to entertain fans of deathmatch. An excellent game with no serious flaws."

SPANK! Comanche Hokum review by 8Ace

"Verdict: This game has amazing depth - In fact I haven't really done more than scratch the surface, but what I've found will ensure that I keep coming back. Some hardened flight sim players might question my judgement considering my lack of experience, but let me put it like this - you don't need to have another FPS to realise that Half-Life is pretty special. Enemy Engaged is the Half-Life of the helicopter gunship simulation - there can be no higher accolade."

Score 92%

WomenGamers Comanche Hokum review by Cat91

"As the most detailed and technically correct and, not to mention, the best of the three current offerings for combat helicopter junkies, the combat helo land has been abuzz about this title for months."
