I took the plunge and bought Wings Of Prey from steam yesterday. Was expecting great things from some of the comments.
I grabbed a wireless third party ps3 pad and that's where the problems started. The control options are so confusing it took me over an hour trial and error before I got a ps3 style setup. Entered a multiplayer match and got disconnect midway then when I went into another match my target lock button had reset. Also it was a bit disapointing that all the arcade matches were stacked with i-153s! So much for pc players being more serious!!
When it was working ok it was pretty good gaming. Lots of disconnects and menu systems for selecting aircraft in lobby is terrible.
Some new graphical touches added to maps. I spotted and army camp near dover and Dover harbour has a load of submerged sunken freighters.
Some odd choices though. In team battle gunfire appears to be team coloured. Bit off putting seeing blue tracers!
In short it's good but I prefer ps3. Aside from the actual game it's the players on ps3 that make the game.
