No, not really true... I went up in a aerobatic plane and did sustained 6 g turns according to the cockpit Gee meter (not like minutes, but it wasn't that hard to take, and it was my first time experiencing it).. yea, it felt funny, and my arms and head got real heavy, but there was no risk of blacking out any time soon. Google on it, and people can take quite a bit more. Anyway, the game simulates (oversimulates?) that pretty good anyway as you mentioned.
