Definately looking forward to this. Just hope its not dumbed down too much.
Like infinite ammo and all the daft stuff like that.

109e's, 110's, Hurri and Spit mk1's and HE111's, looks like the Battle of Britain in that vid.

This will be the closest to a sim that has ever seen light of day on a console.

Can't wait.

It's about time a proper flight sim arrived on the consoles. I really hope this is the real deal and not an arcade experience.

I'm going to keep a close eye on this game, it looks promising.
