Authentic Warzones: With more than 16 multi-stage missions involving air and ground strike operations, the campaign takes you to real life locations including Central America and the Middle East. Apache has you where the fight is needed the most. Realism Defined: Everything is the game is painstakingly made with realism in mind, from the real-world satellite photography used to make the in-game environments to the simulation controls and modeling of the helicoptors.
Tailored Experience: Play the way you want to play. Jump right in and rain down destruction in the game's arcade-style Training Mode or test your aerial skills by playing in the challenging Realistic Mode. Cooperative Destruction: Have a friend join the fight! The local cooperative mode lets two players gear up in the same Apache and tackle the game's story mode with one player acting as the pilot and the other as the gunner. Online Helicoptor Combat: Join other helicoptor enthusiasts as you go directly against them in competitive online modes such as Team Battle and Capture the LZ, or form online squadrons with up to four Apaches fighting together in unison.
Take to the skies in the lethal Apache AH-64 attack helicoptor and rain down death from above using the latest in cutting edge military weapons technology. Fly attack, reconnaissance, escort and rescue missions deep behind enemy lines in missions around the world. Use laser-guided precision ground strikes and devastating rounds of explosive Hellfire missiles to take out high value strategic targets. Defend civilians from heavily armed pirates off the coast of Africa, hunt down terrorists in the mountains of central Asia, and take down enemy choppers in intense aerial combat over the jungles of Central America. When you think you've mastered the skies, prove it by taking your skills online in competitive multiplayer matches.
After playing the demo, I was sold. This is the best (and maybe only) helicopter sim on the 360. The game play is very tactical and I truly like the single screen coop. I think it truly brings two people together and makes it a life or death situation whereas, you must be able to rely on your gunner to get his job done and vice versa. If someone screws up, you will both be brought down, which I believe truly simulates the feeling of flying a copter in the military.
The graphics are pretty good, except I saw one of these copter guns in reallife where it literally turned a guy into a red smear on the ground, and the gun in reallife sounded more menacing then the one in the game. I have to say though that it would have been great to turn a insurgent into a red smear, but, whatever. The copter sound are very quiet, which is good and the ambience is also very significant. I would def recommend this game, but some may not like it because of it not being arcadey. The game has a good mission structure like: escorts, protect forces, and so on. Also, offers single player free flight mode. This game is great. Graphics are great and it gives you the feeling that you are really in a helicopter. The sounds are so realistic. You can switch from the cockpit to gunner to third person. I only wish that the game made the UH-60 Blackhawk availavle to fly, but maybe later they will. I would definately recommend this game.
Gameplay is a 5/5, the campaign was good enough and the prerendered cutscenes were so cheesy it brought be back to when games like these were considered hi def in the cinematics department. Funny stuff but the game is pretty sick. The Online COOP is amazing and playing with 4 people means you could convince a few of your buddies to buy this and then you don't need to worry about people to play it with. The community is really close knit online and everybody is likeminded and friendly. You'd think with an Apache gunship you wouldn't need to be careful or tactical. I've never played anything as tactical as this in a long while. BFBC2 was good but most people were too damn stupid to do anything useful for your team and Halo is all about Quadruple teaming the enemy.
