Шаблон:Video game reviews

F-18 Thunder Strike received unanimously negative reviews, with criticism of the game focused on the poor controls and slow pace of the gameplay. Craig Harris of IGN said that "the problem with this game is the overall design", levelling criticism with the controls as "extremely simplified...the controls of your plane are flat-out wrong (and) actually causes some seriously stupid problems with the dogfighting that makes it near impossible to target your opponents properly".[3] Writing for Hyper, Frank Day stated the game was "not a good idea", observing "the small screen and stiff digital controls" leads the player to "look for enemy planes for a long time before you see any action".[5] Total Game Boy Color agreed, critiquing the "impersonal and slow" gameplay in which "nothing happens...you simply fly around for a while, shoot a plane or two if you're luck and then you turn it off".[1]
