The combat is a sight to behold, but the missions are more than little formulaic thanks to the nature of the aircraft. Apaches are made to kill, and they do it well. IGN just doesn't think that’s enough for most gamers out there.

Mediocre games are notoriously hard to critique. We’re hardwired for hyperbole: it’s easy to write thousands of words effortlessly praising the finer points of a blockbuster title, and a poor game is even easier. But when a game is neither, things get a bit more difficult: the game may not have glaring flaws, but it may lack any number of effervescent qualities that see it rise to the top.
Apache Air Assault is such a game, one that tempts this reviewer to trade in terrible clichés in an attempt to explain to the reader that this title might appeal to niche enthusiasts.
MMGN: Apache: Air Assault is best if you master the controls and experience both single and online multiplayer. It’s realistic enough for most pros, but more casual players will struggle to master the flight controls, even on the training difficulty, while the fun is to be had on realistic. That leaves it as a fairly niche title for combat flight sim fans.
