Important Health Warning About Playing Video GamesPhotosensitive seizuresA very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed tocertain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear invideo games. Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may havean undiagnosed condition that can cause these “photosensitive epileptic seizures”while watching video games
These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness, alteredvision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation,confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss ofconsciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or strikingnearby objects
Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of thesesymptoms. Parents should watch for or ask their children about the abovesymptoms—children and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience theseseizures. The risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced by taking thefollowing precautions: Sit farther from the screen; use a smaller screen; play in awell-lit room; do not play when you are drowsy or fatigued
If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult adoctor before playing

Each mission also supplies text from her diaries of the time, which maybe read for more detail of the progress of her war. During missions, you experience events asDeeDee did, including the communications of her and her team
As DeeDee attempts to survive the war and aid the resistance movements of Europe, shelearns more about her missing father. She meets members of his old squadron, who tell hertales of his past. You will play one flashback mission at the end of each campaign, and indoing so uncover the mystery of Guillaume Derbec
Campaign – Mission gameplay descriptionEvery mission contains a number of objectives which you must complete in order to completemissions. Your objectives will be outlined in a short briefing before the mission, and will beexplaied to you as required during execution of the mission. Be aware that mission objectivesmay change, and listen to all information supplied to you. Some objectives, such as escortmissions, can be failed. If an objective is failed, or if DeeDee is shot down, the mission mustbe restarted
Examples objectives: • Shoot down enemy aircraft • Destroy ground targets - enemy troops, vehicles, ships or emplacements • Land (fly through all landing indicators in the correct direction) • Reach a specific destination • Locate something using radio navigation (see radio section ) 5 • Stay undetected by the enemy (see stealth section) • Drop off supplies by landing or via parachute NOTE: Remember than each than objective can be time limited. When an objective is limited by time, a time counter is displayed in the top-centre of the screen
To view actual objectives, access the game pause menu by pressing the START button
User Interface Stealth meter Damage meter Radar Direction – radio meter6 Radar Marks (green) Ally ground unit (red) Ground target (building, or building ship, Anti Aircraft, Vehicle) (green)) Ally aircraft (red) Enemy aircraft Mission objective marker (airport to land, checkpoint to reach or area where you should find something) Adrenaline meterMachineguns Engine throttletemperature Speedometer & Altimeter 7 StealthIf you need to stay undetected, keep a close eye on your radar and maintain a safe distancefrom all enemy aircraft. The critical distance from the enemy is marked on the radar with awhite circle - if you stay out of an enemy’s critical distance circle, you can remain unnoticed
In stealth missions, a meter will show you how you are doing. If the size of the red pulsing areain the stealth meter is increasing, you have a higher chance of being detected
Critical distance Your Position TIP: You can gain a significant advantage in missions where you need to remain undetected by flying in an aircraft with enemy markings. To do this, choose an appropriate plane from the plane select menu
Radio meterIn some missions you will be asked to locatesomething. You can use the radio poundagemeter to home in on radio signals from yourobjective - the signal will be stronger whenyou are facing in the correct direction
The direction meter features a red pulse
The size of the red pulsing area is decreasesas you fly away from the target. It increasesin size as you fly toward the target
8 WeaponsThere are two types of weapon, primary and secondary
• Primary weapons – machine guns. You have unlimited machine gun bullets, but if you fire for too long, your guns will overhead. Gun temperature is shown to the left of the throttle
• Secondary weapons – rockets/bombs. You can swith between rockets and bombs (see Controls). The chosen weapon is displayed in left-top corner of the screen. The readiness of the weapon is indicated as below – rockets and bombs take time to reload
50% of rocket is reloaded NOTE: Different aircraft carry different payloads of bombs or rockets. Reload times also differ
Hitting aircraft with rocketsRockets can be a very effective weapon for destroying enemy aircraft, but they can be difficultto use. There were no guided missiles in World War II so you will have to target your rocketsmanually
To destroy an enemy aircraft with rockets you will need to extrapolate the target‘s trajectoryand aim the rocket to a point along that line where it will intercept its target – leading thetarget. Hitting enemy planes with rockets is one of the hardest skills to master, but it is alsoextremely rewarding when you succeed! Don‘t be afraid of missing - practice makes perfect! TIP: Since targeting with missiles is hard, don’t be afraid to fire a spray of rockets in the hope that one will hit
9 Adrenaline The Adrenaline bar is displayed in the right-bottom corner, and refills during gameplay. When adrenaline is activated, time seems to slow down, allowing for greater accuracy while aiming
Campaign reward structure – Stars Stars are items which you need to: NOTE: • Unlock new planes The actual numbers of stars you have • Improve your personal skills earned is displayed after each mission (see section Personal Skills) on the mission conclusion screen
You can earn stars for: • Mission Completion (for every mission completion you earn a different number of stars, based upon the mission difficulty and length) • Kills (for every 5 aircraft shot down you earn one star) • Objectives (each completed objective earns you stars) Personal Skills After mission when you earned a enough number of stars you can improve your personal skills: Agility Improves aircraft handling Luck Increases the chance of critical hits* Leadership Wingmen perform better under your command Endurance Enhances your physical condition *Critical hits destroy aircraft by single shot (the pilot is headshot, or you hit an engine or fuel tank)

Jeff Minter created the music visualization program Neon which is included with the Xbox 360. The Xbox 360 was released on November 22, 2005, in the United States and Canada; December 2, 2005, in Europe and December 10, 2005, in Japan.
Microsoft announced the Xbox One, successor to the Xbox 360, at E3 on June 10, 2013. Although succeeded as Microsoft's main console by the Xbox One, support from publishers for the Xbox 360 is expected to continue until at least 2016.
When the Xbox 360 was released, Microsoft's online gaming service Xbox Live was shut down for 24 hours and underwent a major upgrade, adding a basic non-subscription service called Xbox Live Silver (later renamed Xbox Live Free) to its already established premium subscription-based service (which was renamed Gold).
Two major hardware revisions of the Xbox 360 have succeeded the original models; the Xbox 360 S (also referred to as the "Slim") replaced the original "Elite" and "Arcade" models in 2010.
