I didn't find out about BoP soon enough to take advantage of any preorder bonus, is what's in the DLC the exact same thing as the preorder goodies?
sorry for the delay in reply, I was about to but my connection dropped out for 3 hours anyway yes of course, I have two off the top of my head that I personally have experience of, and that is Fuel, and Tom Clancy's Hawx. Fuel sucks FYI, but Hawx is a good game if you like jets, easily superior to the ace combat series. but yes both shipped with pre-order stuff still available to every other buyer, you just had to unlock it, not BUY it.

Fair enough, but I believe you may have overstated when you said that every console game's pre order bonuses are later given out, or unlocked for free. Two games that immediately come to mind that have not released their pre order content are Forza Motorsports 2 and Army of two. The only way to get the pre order content from these games is with a unique one time code that was given out to pre order customers, or the friends of the game store's employees.

compared to say the Spitfire the P-47 did fly like a freight train. a lot of pilots who transferred from spitfires too P47s hated it.

It just tried the P-47 in a few games. It is even worse to fly than the P-51 with full fuel tanks.
it does not have the speed you need for a boom and zoom fighter. And its turn is so risiculous, that if you manage to get behind someone, even the smallest turn will shake you. really, at spit pulling half the turn it could do, will still turn 2x as fast as the P-47.

There is no way even the best Bop gamer can even think about getting a 1:1 k/d against a rookie

if the P47 was SOOO bad then it wouldnt be an iconice aircraft of WW2 would it? it wouldnt of been given the great reviews it has.

Lets not bullshit each other here ok.....

the P47 wasnt as nimble as a spitfire, but damn it was a great plane to fly, it did a great job!! it was hardcore lol.


In this game...
