So both this game and WWII Aces on the Wii share similarities.
Both had budget productions, have bad graphics, poor voice acting, both where from the mountains of shovelware that the PS2 and Wii suffered from, etc.
But with WWII Aces if you can get used to the motion controls you have a decent time killer on your hand. The core gameplay loop: Fly around and shoot at enemy planes; Is engaging, and the motion controls (except for those STUPID "trick moves" that keep activating erroneously) can become extremely fun! WWII Aces had some love put into it, and I do find the lack of polish strangely charming in a way.
But "Civil War: A Nation Divided" is just.... BORING! The campaign is horrifically linear with invisible walls EVERYWHERE, the combat system is not engaging (The sniper rifle feels like a pea shooter. Yes, the weapons are THAT bad), melee attacks merely graze your opponents, the enemies are hitscan hell yet you can avoid many of them by walking through the level, the player hand animations are extremely slow and interrupt the experience, the levels just.... Start and end. I thought the game crashed to a black screen, but no that's just how some levels end.
Sure, the History Channel sponsored this, but this isn't a documentary, this is a VIDEO GAME! The top priority is fun gameplay, not historical accuracy!
This one person on Youtube described this game as "more boring then history class". I can't think of a more degrading insult of a video game lol, but I do agree.

CRAP-DO NOT WASTE YOUR LIFETIME. THANKS,ACTIVISION-whoever produced this crap should get scalped.
1. Disk 2 is not mountable. BUT
2. I have managed to get the whole file from somewhere else. IT WILL NOT RUN ON ANY NEW COMPUTER. The entire background is a raging mess, whatever you do, It will stay that way as even just trying to play it with your dumb processor doing the grafics will not make it compatible.
How is is possible that games from the 2000 are mountable but not this? I wasted two hours for nothing.
I put it on my "to do list" and hope some day maybe there will be an AI powered solution to stupid programming decisions.

This was a pleasant surprise. After watching a YouTuber's scathing review, claiming this title was terrible with only one redeeming quality - a Civil War era gun, I had low expectations. But boy, was I wrong! This is actually a good game. It may not be a hidden gem or a classic, but it has soul. Despite its clunkiness, I was determined to finish the game, and it was awesome. Seriously, you guys are doing great work preserving these games, even providing fixes!

Heyo, I'm using a windows XP professional, and I downloaded the first game file, currently downloading the next two, the problem is. That disk one doesn't have a installation file or anything, if I could get some pros on how to download the game, I'd appreciate it greatly.
