Sarin - Aces of the Pacific
 
So...it seems that Abandonia is missing the review for this game. I've been playing it, and could write a review, but I've noticed I'm missing an expansion pack. I've been informed that it can be provided. While it will slow down my review a bit, it will definitely help.

It's a "what-if scenario" and I think it spoils a bit the historical flavor of the sim, just as in the case of the IL-2 Sturmovik series ( ;) ). I think you could safely add a separate mini-review of the add-on later.

Funny thing: I bought that game in 1993, yet I've learned about this add-on only today :)

Well, I'd like to review it as a whole, there might be some bugfixes in expansion pack. AotP isn't exactly a bugfree game :)

I'll send you two PMs, one with the FTP access, and the other with the expansion. Also, you could really try taking the possibility of writing a separate review in account.

Thanks. I'll separate the article about expansion pack, but there's no point in playing without having it installed, it contains a lot of bugfixes for both technical and gameplay issues.

Well, in that case, you can write a single one. Also don't forget about the screens. 320x200 resolution or one that can be resized to that size. If there is no such thing, upload the one there is. PNG format, DOSBox will automatically capture them in this format when pressing Ctrl+F5. Minimum 5 screens, 5-8 is optimal, up to 15 max if the review is long.

I don't think you'll have problems with this, but the review must be at least 15 lines long. The more the better.

I think that I'll hit the other limits...16 good screenies ready, that is definitely too much...

Sarin 20-10-2009 03:27 PM

Well. I got kinda more busy than I expected, and then, a "little" case of writer
's block, but finally, it's done and uploaded. I'm not sure if I shouldn't cut it a bit short, after I really got to writing it ended a bit long.

Nice review. Thank you. :)

No problem. When I say I'll do it, I will...eventually :D
