I've had it for about 5 days, and I would say, yes I think it was worth the $30.

i know it has german missions but what are they like?
Each campaign (there are 3) have an equal number of allied and German missions from what I can tell.

I've played through each of the German missions so far for the first 2 campaigns, Ardennes and Battle of Britain. The missions aren't that difficult but that depends also on the difficulty settings you set in the game settings. For these first 2 campaigns playing as the Germans I had the difficulties all set on the easiest levels. I think only 2 missions I wasn't able to complete and had to retry.

Now I'm playing the BoB campaign as British with all the difficulty settings back to hardest (there's only an on or off for the difficulty settings, for now I've switched them to off). So I'll see how easy or hard it is to complete each mission in this fashion.

how long is the game in total?
I'd say probably by the end of the weekend I'll have all the missions completed for both sides. So probably a good 24+ hours or more to complete every mission on both sides, but I could be wrong, I'm only on my first mission as Allies as of yesterday and I have the difficulty back to the hardest level. We'll see how many times it takes to complete a mission.

how does it control??
It's completely arcade-like controls, which is expected on a platform like the DS. So it's made to be a jump in and fly type game, very little learning curve, but I did have to go through the academy to understand the basics of the game.

Hope this helps.
