     > Aero Dancing i is shaping up to be quite a sequel.  I have seen preview movies of it in action, thanks to the recently released Aero Dancing FSD.  It's awesome!  For sure, there will be tons of aircraft along with dogfighting, escort, and surface attack missions!  Only a few more months of anxious preparations.  Check out the new pix below.

     > This is fantastic.  CRI continues to pump out flight sims under the Aero Dancing banner!  The latest iteration concentrates on the Dreamcast's built-in internet capabilities by offering an online mode featuring multiplayer dogfights!  Just like with Aero Dancing F, many new aircraft, maps, and missions await our anxious DC controllers as well.

     > Do you want a choice of aircraft???  Good...  Aero Dancing i offers the following: A-7E, MiG-29 Fulcrum, AV-8B Harrier, F-1, F-2, F-4, F-14 Tomcat, F-15 Eagle, F-16 Falcon, F/A-18 Hornet, F-86F, F-104 Starfighter, T-2, T-3, T-4, and more!!!  Wow, this game is going to be expansive for sure (at least as far as aircraft selection).  I do wonder, however, how CRI is going to handle the complicated V-STOL (vertival/short take off and landing) control for the Harrier?  Going by past releases, I'm fairly certain they won't screw it up.

     > You say a variety of modes would be welcome???  Great!  Aero Dancing i offers the following: Internet Battle (multiplayer dogfight), Missions (32), Free Flight (oh yeah), Versus Link (get a link cable and friend),  Replay Theater, Training, and Hangar (whew...).  I hope the missions include some ground targets this time around.  If I get positive word, I'll update the preview.

     > If that's not enough, CRI is updating the graphics engine even more.  Better textures, various scenery enhancements, improved vapor trails, and more realistic afterburning (to name a few).  If you like to fly, then keep your eyes peeled for this one. 

     > Importing should be relatively easy, especially for seasoned pilots out there.  As usual, internet playability will not be available to import buyers.  The Versus Link mode will be hot though.

First Impression
     > Looks like Aero Dancing i is to flight games what Phantasy Star Online is to RPGs.  Let's hope a savvy US publisher (cough... Crave) picks this up for localization -- in tact!  Anyway, you know this game will be mine.
Potential
