Yeah, my thoughts. I read a thread on a games site and not only once I read there that 'simulation mode is terrible, I cannot play it'

What's the point in spending a lot of money into developing a proper simulation, when only 0.01 % of all players actually use it and all others prefer the dumbed down version?

I'm really excited to finally have an air combat simulation on the X360 and would hate to see it fail on the market due to a lack of hardware.

Somehow it's strange that an arcadey game like Ace Combat came bundeld with a proper HOTAS system and a real flight sim comes eventually bundled with a 40 $ piece of junk.

Not that strange.

Ace Combat is a long running successful console flight series that was pretty sure to have an audience.

It's interesting to the see the hate for it around here. I love Ace Combat, just like I am sure I am going to love BoP.

Just like I love both Forza and Burnout.



[EDIT]

Oh yeah... Hey MAYAman.

Nah, it's not exactly hate. I tried the demo and loved the graphics. It's just that all the weapon systems were so far off the real deal that I finally couldn't get myself to buy it.
