Simple but highly effective.

Snoopy Flying Ace is a fun and accessible aerial arcade shooter with a whole lot of polish and personality. It may not offer a whole lot of depth, but for only 800 MS Points you still get quite a bit of game for your buck with more in the form of DLC on the way.

This game deserves nothing less than a 10. The only thing bad about it is that it's too short! All planes feel excellent to control, you can equip two from a multitude of weapons at once, these weapons feel great to fire and each have their own strengths and use cases! The missions are all super fun and can actually provide a pretty serious challenge on "veteran" difficulty. The art style is just delightful, they somehow capture the lighthearted cartoony aesthetic of Peanuts and mix in some WW1 grittiness to it. The music in this game, too, is nothing short of masterful. I wish I could find who composed this soundtrack because they are INCREDIBLE. I'd say get this game, but sadly it's been delisted for 8 years now. We really need a remaster of this beloved XBLA title.

The single player game is spectacular; now add on some multiplayer mayhem and that make this game skyrocket to the top of our favorites list.

You will be surprised at just how deep the combat can be, not to mention how addicting it is to get into a good 16-player skirmish over Xbox Live.

All in all, if you're looking for some chaotic arcade shooting in the skies, Snoopy Flying Ace delivers a pretty good experience for an Xbox Live Arcade game.

This isn't the deepest flying game you'll ever play, but it's certainly among the most fun and accessible.

It is hard to imagine the Peanuts gang being relevant in 2010 but Flying Ace shows that a good idea, great execution and a little imagination can make anything possible.

For the most part the simplified controls work like a charm, allowing the player to zip around the map, easily locating their prey. It's the maps themselves that are the problem-they're far too small for the number of players that regularly compete on them.
