    The game has amazing depth and a steep learning curve. If studying a flight manual for twenty or thirty minutes at a time to learn some real-life subsystem and then trying out whatever you learned in a fully simulated fighter plane sounds like fun to you, then you’re going to have a blast (pun intended).

    To me, the biggest draw backs are spending so much time and money (planes and maps are not cheap) immersing yourself in a game that may never run more than 30 FPS and crashes from time to time. There’s also the frustration of being a true “sim”, where you know you put that guided rocket straight down the throat of that SAM launcher, but he’s still alive and shooting because he has 23% health.

    See you in the skies!
