I've got a 360 and I'll most likely buy it. I just wish I could plug my CH pedal and stick into the 360 and it would recognise them.

Mmm...

Gamespy seems to like the game. If the game is that close to being a "sim" it will be really difficult to play without a joystick.

Kind of makes you think (god, I need my coffee_LOL)

There is a joystick for the 360 but I would like to use my own and can not justify spending more on another(my wife would kill me). It will be OK on pad but not the same but beggars can not be choosers!

Iv'e looked at the trailer again and I must say I'm REALLY impressed with the graphics!
The way light and shadow are giving life to the planes is astonishing! Just look at the ailrons of the Hurricane the camera is trailing for a while!

The landscape is mouthwatering. It would be so nice to fly low-level, trying to stay below the top of the trees with that terrain! I noticed that the trees had no shadow, but that is really a minor detail.

If SOW:BOB has grapichs as good at this (I guess it will), and a weather as good as indicated it will be, this will become a dream to fly. I wouldn't even miss enemies..

Here is the nice thing about it...no upgrade required. It will look (good HDTV/LCD required) and play the same for everyone with no issues. Perfectly everytime. Im quite certain we cant say that about a PC version.

S!
