PS3 Demo today???

[merro]

Hello to all of you, i just have to post my impression of the demo, other then that i will be mostly lurking around.
PS: Don´t mind my spelling i am german.

Graphic:
Looking great, the view, overall look of the game, even close to the ground, the detail is unbelievable for a console game.
1080p upscaling on the ps3, there are not many games out there that run this resolution.
I did not notice any frame drops at all.
The visuell effects are breathtaking. Oil on the cockpit window, smoke trails from planes, wow. Great job to the devs!
Downside:
Shadows look very ugly sometimes in cockpit view. This seems to be a ps3 problem, since a lot of games suffer from edgy looking shadows.

Tearing: There is some noticable tearing going on, esp. when you use the freelook in cockpit.
I play on a 42" with a high quality HDMI Cabel, so its a game problem.
Hope this is fixed in the final game, very disturbing.

Sound: Fantastic, the 5.1 is really adding to a intense battle experience

Gameplay: I will skip arcade mode and get straight to realism.
The game gets here allready very challenging.
Playing with a pad starts to give you a hard time.

I could not find a way to change the button layout of the controller, hope this is possible in the final game. The way the button layout is right now, is not optimal.
But i got my flightstick just ordered for this game.

Sim Mode. This is where its happening. Wow, it actually feels like flying.
I really crashed more then a few times in this mode, but it is so rewarding if you manage to controll the plane, and don´t constantly stall (which happens more then enough- i just suck!).
It is very hard to spot targets, i was busy checking the map and my surroundings.
I really got a feeling to be part of a battle going on around me in the skys.
Awesome!
Thanks to the devs for finally having the guts to bring out a game which feels like a flight simulator.
I know that PC Gaming offers more (i been playing flight sims since my days with the C64), but this is as close as it gets.
Great job to the devs, i hope this sells, since many people don´t even know about this game!
Promo here was/is not good, thats sad. Hope people get into the game through downloading the demo.

PS: Thx for bringing Cockpit Views for german planes in future DL.

Again thank you thank you thank you, hope it sells a lot!
