Anyone picked it up? JB has it for $99, so another sub $100 new release which is good to see.
I havnt heard anything about this game, but the screenshots on the box looked amazing.

Save your money. I hired it this weekend and it is the biggest pile of crap I have ever seen. Go look at the reviews on gamerankings.com. Trust me you do not want to waste your money.

Thanks for the heads up tasman. I was considering buying it this afternoon. God, why cant anyone make a decent flight game these days? You would think that with todays technology it wouldnt be that hard. And looks like another mediocre game to add to the 360's growing collection.

To be fair people who love flight games seem to really enjoy this title. It is not an arcade game it is definitely more slanted toward the sim genre. Read the gamefaqs forums and you will find more people that like it than dislike it.

Do not write it off just because of reviews.

To call this game a Sim is an insult to flight sims everywhere. What a joke!!!

As I posted, look at the gamefaqs forum. Personally I haven't played the game.

Yep well I have. Wasted about 6 hours of my life trying to enjoy this game and I failed miserably. Just glad I am a member of The Rentertainer and I didn't blow $100 big ones on this steamin pile of crap

I don't know how anyone could expect a flight sim to be a flight sim on a console when you don't have a keyboard and joystick. My mate and I used to play Gunship many moons ago and the button layout was insane!

I dont want a flight sim and I dont want an arcade shooter, I just want a flight game. It doesnt have to be completely real (and frustrating and boring) like a sim, but it would be nice to have a game where the planes handle somewhat realistically, and has some depth to the gameplay.
