It would seem contradictory to put "high-fidelity flight simulation" and "fast-action dogfighting" in the same sentence when describing a game.

Like describing Call of Duty as a "high-fidelity small arms and warfare simulator" with "fast-action FPS shooter".

Crisis of identity, lol.

Did Gaijin try to overcome this contradiction with early releases for Playstation?
I was so intrigued that I bought PS3 at that time. Looked so cool on large TV screen but overall "half baked" with joystick/keyboard issues I never managed to overcome.
