Works both ways mate. I'd only buy a PS3 for blu ray (the online play with 360 im led to believe is far superior??) but then again i'e got over 200DVD's so they would become useless.

Its a case of each to their own mate. :D

Oh sorry man I forgot that was still up there. Hey bloody good answer btw, it's the moon!!! Inspired by the song "man in the moon" by 90's rock band 'Imperial Drag' Could only find a dubious live recording on youtube though.

Was pondering about that too, but the "satellite" reference means he could maybe be the moon? I dunno it's stumped me

PS3 Upscales DVDs really well, so you buying stuff again on BluRay is pretty pointless IMO (I have a serious DVD collection too). And the online works well for the most part, although voice-comms are dicey at best. But then it's free :)

But yep - each to their own...

Actually the Westland Whirlwind would be more interesting than the Mosquito.

Zeroes...... Bacofoil and Balsawood death traps. They are the true one hit wonders, though the rest of the Japanses WW2 aircraft wasn't any better.

Having flown them in Battle Stations Midway and Pacific, all I can say is that they're OK until hit and then they fall apart quicker than a Chinese motorcycle.

They were also only able to out perform the US P-40 and F4-F fighters.

Though the Zero could out turn the P-40 Warhawk, F4-F Wildcat, F3-A Corsair and F4-U Corsair, they could not out turn the F2-A Buffalo or F6-F Hellcat.

Remember that the Zero has no self sealing fuel tanks, no armour and a weak magnesium airframe as the costs for nimbleness and agility. The engine isn't that powerful when compared to Allied aircraft in 1941 either.

Nope, I'd rather the Westland Whirlwind and P-38 be added into BOP.
