Il-2 Sturmovik: Birds of Prey

Not the snappiest of titles, but considering how overlooked the aerial combat genre is, few purists will be complaining about the name after its extended dogfights are unleashed. The single player campaign allows you to do your bit for the second world war by helping out the Allies fight the Axis.
There are five theatres of war to engage in – The Battle of Britain, Stalingrad, Berlin, Sicily and Korsun - each representing the main airborne battles over Europe. Hundreds of planes will be in the air and the graphics are so detailed that players will also be able to see ground support.
