^^Very good point. For $10 you could get Battlefield 1943, a critically acclaimed shooter with hours and hours of replay value OR two planes (one of which isn't even competitive) and a couple of missions. I smell BS!!!

If it makes you feel any better, us people on the PS3 only got one plane. They didn't even include the Ta-152 in the DLC. I know it can be unlocked, and I'd probably never use it anyway, but it says right there in the DLC that it gives you the Ta.

I do like the P-47 though. Awesome plane.

Yeah, these publishers really shafted the fanbase. I hope the devs find a different one for the sequel or publish it themselves to bypass that completely.

Lots of potential for this game though. For a PC developer's first step onto a console, I really think they have done suprisingly well. Its not perfect, but first tries rarely are. I think that once issues are resolved and content is added, tweaked and polished, this could really be an epic series on the console for simmers and arcade players alike.

I agree, I had my doubts when the demo came out, but now that I've had the full ver for a little while I'm pleased. I've only played it on sim and I think its a totally reasonable approach for a console sim game. In fact while I was never a PC IL-2 player, from the youtube vids I've seen the experience doesn't look very different. Sure we can't control fuel mix, prop pitch, or convergence, but are they really essential? Admittedly the P-51 modeling has issues, which the devs are sorting out, but every other model seems authentic.

As far as DLC goes, aside from the DLC packs for Fallout 3, its almost always a scam, so I don't even worry about it. When the devs release something substantial, like a campaign of 15 missions with a new setting, I'll bite.
