Bobby, I had to unhook my Xbox at the weekend but I will rig it back up tomorrow and try catch you online for a few flights. I hasn't seen any forum regulars on XBL when I have been on. Must be wrong time of day

I noticed.. And the 'helicopters have a wider turning circle than fixed wing' statement is also a bit of a give away.

That kind of puts everything in the review into question. Can we really fly the Hind, Cobra etc. or was he just flying a different Apache and mixed up the names.

It's cheaper because it's part of the Activision Minneapolis series of budget titles which have a tendency to reflect their cheapness in game quality. BoP was by no means a budget title.
