Seeing how I don't have a stick as of yet, I'll be playing in arcade. Maybe try some realistic with the controller. That is if the US demo comes out tomorrow.

If the demo is out tomorrow, I'll be ordering the stick. Once I get the stick, realistic and some sim hours.

I can't wait for the MP though! Even though I'll prob get my arse shot down.... I think that I will have a lot of fun.

Can't wait to see you guys there!

I am really hoping that this leads to future titles and more flight simulator games coming to consoles!

Sim all the way. I've been waiting for a game like this to come down the pike for a long time. Every other console flight game i've ever seen has been met with a resounding "meh." until now.

After playing the demo for a few days now, I`ll be giving arcade a miss when I get my hands on the game. I`m starting to get a few bombers on sim, but I`m finding it difficult to locate the fighters. I`ll go thru the campaign on realistic first, then sim.

I'll be playing on Sim, but I have a feeling that I will have to switch back to realistic for some of the more difficult missions.

I love Sim mode because it gives you more control, e.g. flaps and trim BUT I have the same issue as a few people of having an SDTV, it is seriously hard to find fighters on my set! I reckon I'll play Sim as much as I can and switch to Realistic when I'm not able to find anything! Eventually I'll get a nice HDTV and then it'll be Sim all the way!!

Realistic

Arcade feels to much like a plane on wheels. No feeling of gravity and shooting down planes is just way to easy. On sim it's too hard for me to make out friend of foe and i feel cramped in that wobbly cockpit =)
