The "instant gratification crowd", usually born after 1990 but older subjects may occur.

Yeah, bl***y youngsters, don't know how lucky they are, mumble, mumble, cough, cough....

I say take their shiny new PCs away, and give them a Sinclair Spectrum, a cassette recorder, a blank tape, and a 1980s vintage computer gaming magazine. You want to play games? You've got to type it in first. Only 5 pages of badly-printed random characters to type in (and then the game turns out to be crap anyway ).

Can you imagine the whiners here turning up at a real RAF fighter squadron?

Plus the stack of a dozen 3.5" disks next to you.
Of course you have to change disks at least every 30min of gameplay - and while they are loading the next level, you can take a leak, brew a cup of coffee, order pizza and write your X-mas cards.

Good old times.

yeah, remove the cockpit, remove the airframe, remove the lighting, turn all the detail down...

the game is improving a lot, but this post is just nonsense.
