This is an exciting, adrenaline-pumping game that I think fans of everything from Hydro Thunder to Star Fox 64 could get into and enjoy, if only they knew it existed. Definitely a sleeper, and definitely worth your time.

All told, you'll have a hell of a good time blowing up and blowing past your friends. [Dec 2011, p.78]

Interesting game, is really funny and addictive. When I watch the cover of this game I think: "Oh no, other shoot'em up?", but when I play Skydrift I watch that have an awesome convination with a racing game and a shoot'em up. Skydrift is amazing, have incredible graphics, great ideas, incredible controls, and more. I love Skydrift.

This game is really, really good, especially considering a low budget PSN game. I saw this game on PSN by mere chance, Downloaded the demo and got impressed with the quality and so much fun you can have with it. And I`m not a big fan of racing ou planes games. Strongly recommended!

Some may frown at the lack paltry selection of race tracks, but they'll have a blast playing through the game's lengthy campaign mode!

While not perfect, this game is still a lot of fun. The definition of easy to play and tough to master, SkyDrift is an addictive romp for those willing to take the time to learn how to become the Dominic Torreto of the skies.

This is nice to look at, but a lack of content prevents it from holding your attention for long. In that respect, Skydrift sort of serves as a distraction game to hold you over until the next major release shows up.

SkyDrift is comfortably one of the strongest aerial combat racers we've seen in the world of download-only titles.

The problem of a distinct lack of variety persists, of course, and the lack of an arena-based dogfight mode feels a wasted opportunity. [Issue#115, p.108]

I think this game rulez, really! It looks really good, especially for a downloadable game, and you always have the feeling: just one more **** again, and again :)

SkyDrift is my new favorite! There are tons of action, cool planes, awesome graphic, the music is so catchy, and finally IT IS A PLANE RACING GAME! I really missed this genre. The power ups are fun and cool, also I really like that they upgrade when I pick the same type. The control is tight and get used to it very soon. Reminds me a bit of motorstorm and WipeOut! And it is a fantastic fun in online.

Skydrift is breathtaking in every sense. With incredible level design and adrenaline pumping gameplay, this small game will race itself in the hearts of gamers. Perhaps the best racer since WipeOut, it takes that same idea and converts it into a more realistic idea of fighter planes and a load of weaponry and carnage, while keeping the speed. Even if it might get frustrating to handle, the overall excitement and tons of quality factors make up for so much, itâ

SkyDrift is an exhilarating, chaotic and frantic experience, this game is a must-buy. Skydrift is a return to a era when all a game had to do was raise your pulse to dangerously high levels and entertain you and, in that respect, is an unqualified success. It feels like the kind of experience you always hoped youâ

Thrilling and unique experience is what Skydrift brings to all the race fans. I wonder why no similar game was ever created before (except a few cheap and bad products). I am pretty sure we are about to see more and more flight action games as Digital Reality founded a new sub-genre. I recommend all of you to try the trial version of this game, even if you are not in flying or racing as it is :)
