We know from the box art that the Collector’s Edition (v1.0.3.6) was supposed to ship with the Wings of the Luftwaffe Expansion Pack, but when you attempt to play those missions, you see a dialog box that asks you if you want to buy them. There are a few differences between the original PC version of Wings of Prey and Wings of Prey: Collector’s Edition which is distributed by Iceberg Interactive. Think of Wings of Prey as that girl you met a long time ago that you saw once and instantly knew she was ten pounds of crazy in a five-pound bag. But, true to form from games coming from the beloved Motherland, it’s isn’t one of those girls that will go all the way on a first date.
Gaijin Entertainment is a development house out of the former Soviet Union, looking capitalism square in the kisser, eager and ready to plant a big wet one right on its’ cheek. They were colossally wrong, of course, but God bless the Russians, it didn’t really stop them from trying. Released last year, it represented a major shift in the prevailing winds of console gameplay, the thought that one of those little set-top boxes stuffed to the gills with overheating electronics could handle the grown-up responsibility of something akin to a flight simulator. That’s kind of how I felt the entire time I played around with Wings of Prey.
There comes a point in any relationship in which the responsible adult sits astraddle the world before them, takes a good, long look at the scene presented with a gimlet eye (or at this hour of the morning, probably a screwdriver eye) and says to the other party, “You are bat-crap insane.”
