Tiny Combat Arena : premier trailer

En bref. MicroProse poursuit sa renaissance et annonce l’arrivée prochaine d’un mini simulateur de batailles aériennes devant privilégier le fun du combat dans les airs, tout en tâchant quand même de le simuler correctement. Un pari ludique intéressant, ou tout au moins original, car souvent les simulateurs de vol sont des jeux assez exigeants et difficiles d’accès.
