Whenever you two do meet up online, be sure to get it on camera so we can see how the whole debate actually works out...

Wish the replay feature from the PC games made it through. Not that I make very good movies, but being able to look back on an epic fight from a different perspective is great. I'm going to have to get an Ace Edge too, not that the game is unplayable with the game pad but having compared my flying with a 360 pad on the PC and the same thing with my flight stick there is a definite edge there.

Okay. It's official. I am part of Eagle Wing.

User Name: PedroTheGoat

First Name: Trey

Age: 26

Preference of type: Well rounded. Mostly ground attack... But no heavy bombers. ie: IL-2, IL-10, P-47, etc.

Favorite Plane: P-47 Thunderbolt/IL-2

Country of Origin: USA: Texas

Not new to flight sims... Has always been my favorite genre. I do happen to be new at WW2 flight sims. My flight sim origins are: SU-27 Flanker, Falcon 4.0, US Navy Fighters, EF2000 (My favorite flight sim before BOP).

Now... Could someone explain to me why my Spitfire has no Forward looking Radar or even AIM-9 Sidewinders??? And how am I supposed to Lase a target???? (Just kidding of course)

So hurry up and add me so I'm not a lonely Goat.

I really don't want to show the shame of David going down in flames LOL I'll try to get a movie of it, and will be sure to be the most arrogant guy on here when I win. Not really, I'll be a good sport for whoever wins.

I've got both consoles, and will be buying it for both. So don't worry, there will be plenty of time. My next paycheck should be coming around near the middle of next month, so I'll buy the game for which ever console I don't buy it for first.

EDIT: This month, I forgot it was the 1st

Wow this threas exploded since I left work, bout time I added details

Xbox Live User Name King jareth

Real First Name (Optional but nice to know) Tim

Age 30

Preference to Fighters / Bombers / All-Rounder No idea yet, anything that compensates for my lack of flying ability?

Favourite Plane to fly in game. again, no idea TBH I feel compelled to not pick a Spitfire as I always tend towards avoiding the obvious choices. I'd like there to be an F6 Hellcat in the final game, always liked them after doing a rather good job on an Airfix kit as a kid.

Country of Origin. England

Ok, if I'm coming across as arrogant then sorry, really don't mean to be taken that way, just trying to give as good as I get. Anyway, since I won't be flying my usual plane (Bf109=no cockpit), I'm going to end up flying the Yak-3(or maybe the Spitfire IX) against someone who always flys the Yak-3 and sounds very good at flying it. So, probably going to go down in your favour, at least at first

It comes out tomorrow in the US now doesn't it?

Actually i'm supprised there hasn't been anyone posting on here saying they already have it. When I pre-order a game from play.com it often gets to me a day early. I thought it would be the same for US online shops.

So anyway you guys across the atlantic better take some time out from flying tomorrow and give the rest of us on here a sit-rep.
