He could have saved himself a long talk by saying "we launched just after Bird Of Prey"
In all seriousness though that was very intersting. The original feature set looked very good, 26 missions, 20 co-op missions and all that multiplayer stuff. Seeing it gradually get cut was pretty sad. Even the north africa missions getting cut. That the one area that may have given it a reason worth playing for us BOP players.
I really dont understand why he doesnt mention BOP though. Its bad timing releasing that game a couple of weeks afer BOP and must have been a huge factor on sales. I bought HOE but only later on when it was reduced to £15. If BOP hadnt come out I probably would have bought HOE at launch for full RRP.
He also mentions that no WW2 flying game has ever sold over 1 million copies. I thought Blazing Angels 1 had sold over 1 million?
Anyway great vid. I think I will go and play HOE again just to get to those later missions he says have variety.
I wonder if we can steal that London map and add it as DLC for BOP
