Which button fires cannon?

Guns are selected with X and then fired with the same button used to fire missiles were they selected.

only thing i didnt like was the lack of any RAF aircraft top fly (though the JSF is in their i guess), that aside i absolutely love it.

It offers so much fun and even an element of skill. Taking an F14 to an enemy base with afterburners on all the way - you wont make it!! you have to have drop tanks. Without using burners you will comforably make it. I love how you get BINGO and have to return to an airfield or carrier to re arm and refuel.

Its hard to find games anymore, but when a game is going i'll be flying

I almost bought a 360 just for this game. I talked my nephew into getting this game for his 360 and I have him bring it over every now and then so I can play.

I absolutely loved OGF. It's easily one of my top 2 most played 360 games of all time. After watching those vids, I may have to pop it in again soon. The controller layout was easily the most intuitive of any flight game I've ever played. Gaijin could've learned a lot from Taito in that regard. Especially the freelook and target padlock -- it is flawless.

Give it better MP menus and lose the Japanimation crap between missions, and this would still be a popular game IMO. OGF2 tops my wish list every year.

One other thing I like is that setting up a full sized room, the MP map would be HUGE. It could take a long time to get to the action (after taking off I might add)--and it was fun that way. Every jet had a different rate of fuel consumption and fuel capacity. Some would have to have external tanks, others would want them to be able to get up and loiter, or to run afterburners to get to the target quickly. The F-14's ran through it pretty fast IIRC, but an F-15 or F-22 carried a good load. Best part: if you got into some action before the external fuel tanks automatically dropped, you could drop them *manually*. We tested dropping them on an airstrip and they do explode if dropped with fuel in them. LOL
If only our P-51 in BOP could be so easily fixed!

I'd about forgotten about 360th, we stopped playing OGF again not long after joining on there. Good site with a lot of info on the game. I think we saw GBNavy in BOP a couple of times.

Hey your last video is saying it is private on youtube.

The 360th, i remember it well was a part of that also.


Used to fly with an F14 team also that did aerobatics and displays! that was fun. Watching people do little displays, The "blue angels" were good to. Takes me back. Still have the game actually, might be tempted to fly now

Oops, fixed. Now you can "go dance with the angels!"
I wish BOP had a replay feature like that. Looks like WOP will though.

Arrrrgh. Don't remind me of the AC6 story. Every other sentance having the words dance and angels in it. AC5 story on the other hand, awesome.
