Is Flight 737 - MAXIMUM worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Aviation fans who want simplified passenger-aircraft controls
- Simulation players who want planned routes and cockpit procedures without highly complicated operation
- Players who want aircraft gameplay alongside helicopter, fighter, and ground-service missions
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a single aircraft type with a narrowly focused simulation structure may find the added helicopter, fighter, and forklift modes distracting.
- Players who want every flight procedure handled manually may hit the simplified-control approach when using the aircraft systems.
- Players looking for genres other than flight and vehicle simulation will not find a general-purpose game here.
Our take on Flight 737 - MAXIMUM
The bounce point arrives at the simplified-control premise: players wanting a strictly procedural airliner simulator may lose interest when the game reduces complexity. Others may hit the wall later, when the additional helicopter, fighter, and forklift missions shift attention away from the 737.
What is Flight 737 - MAXIMUM?
A flight simulation centered on a simplified 737 passenger aircraft.
Flights can connect airports across five continents and include planning, checklists, taxiing, takeoff, cruise, landing, parking, and post-landing tasks. Controls cover the FMC, autopilot, navigation, fuel information, radio communication, cabin pressure, IRS, and flight instrumentation. Players can set flight duration and weather, use air traffic, and perform refueling, de-icing, and pushback operations. The game also includes passenger and cargo transportation, helicopter missions, an advanced retro jet fighter mode, and forklift operations. Keyboard, mouse, gamepads, Logitech Extreme 3D, and Thrustmaster TCA Airbus Edition controls are supported.
