Resources:

• Game Revolution   [rate] [review]
  "It's a shame that FireBlade is burdened by such stringent objectives when it could have been so much more entertaining. It's recommended for helicopter sim fans only, and might be too tough for the casual gamer." Review by Joe Dodson with scorecard [B-].

• GamePro.com   [rate] [review]
  "Ultimately, theres nothing to make Fireblade stand outits like every other mission-based helicopter shooter, except that it lacks a personality." Review by Bad Hare with scores and screen shots.

• Gamers Pulse   [rate] [review]
  "All told, Fire Blade could have been better. While the action levels are exciting, things like the stealth levels, a bad draw-in distance, and ill-placed music detract from the experience." Review by Red Python with average score and screen shots.

• GamerWeb Sony   [rate] [review]
  "Overall, Fireblade is a game that will most likely get overlooked, and I cant say that this is exactly unfortunate." Review by Ben S. Dutka with screen shots and overall score [5.0].

• GameSpy.com   [rate] [review]
  "But truthfully, the developers should've known better. The industry is seeing third- and fourth-generation titles now on the PlayStation 2, and they're looking incredible. There is no excuse that Fireblade looks the way it does." Review by Tom Ham with score [75] and screen shots.

• GameZone.com   [rate] [review]
  "FireBlade is the kind of combat title gamers will find hard to put down and, while it suffers from a number of imperfections, the missions are far too engaging to care about the little things." Review by Nick Valentino with overall score [7.7] and screen shots.

• ign.com   [rate] [review]
  "But for those of us out there that appreciate what goes into making a game good, and don't mind reading an instruction booklet to figure out how to play, you could do a lot worse." Review by Jeremy Dunham with overall score [7.7] and screen shots.

• Maxim Online   [rate] [review]
  "Lucky for you, this blastfest lets you turn badguys into hamburger without having to worry about suffering a similar fate. No fuss, no muss." Review by Ryan Boyce with score [3.5/5].

• PSX Nation   [rate] [review]
  "As far as Helicopter Military shooters go, Fireblade is among some of the most fun to play." Review by Brian Shroom Gray with score [7] and screen shots.

• PSX2.com   [rate] [review]
  "Its probably best to stay clear unless you absolutely MUST have a new helicopter game, and even then you should wait till it drops to bargain bin price." Review by Sam Bishop with screen shots and overall score [7].

• The Adrenaline Vault   [rate] [review]
  "If it were more accessible, Fireblade would have earned a full four stars. The controls are tight, but very involved, and the mission design doesn't do a good job of easing you into the myriad gameplay features." Review by Matthew Dujnic with overall score [3.5/5] and screen shots.
