Ah...... no. They didn't pay anywhere near that much for the article.

Bingo same article and magazine here packed up with a good portion of my old Sgt. Rock, Star Wars, Daredevil, Nth Man, GI Joe and Superman comic books.

I even played the game for a bit before it transitioned over to WB.

Also does anyone here remember the game called Desert Fighters that Sierra had going that actually made open beta before getting canned. If so and any of you have it I would like a copy of it. The game was to feature German, British and American aircraft in the North Africa/Mediterranean theater. I had it for a while and it played good in the initial open beta too bad Sierra canned the design team and killed the game.

Here is the only article I have been able to find that tells anything about it.

why want more of models that we have now? isn't 4 F4u's enough? or 5 109's?

get some new planes we dont have first, before re-hashing something we can use already.
I don't know what to put here yet.

Surrounded by suck and underwhelmed with mediocrity.
I'm always right, it just takes some poepl longer to come to that realization than others.

I didn't.

We have the B5N2, that article's is the B5N1.  Different aircraft, thus I didn't bold it.

Sierra, what a bunch of losers. Im sure Donkey Kong IV will be a big hit or whatever crap they are working on.

I had the CGW mag before I got into online sims, I remember thinking "wow, that would be so cool to fight online vs real players...".

dont hold your breath about new aeroplanes for coming AH2 .

Graphics dept. will have a handful making the current planeset until new planes will be released.
My ammo last for 6 Lancasters, or one Yak3.

I got that CGW mag after I got into online flight sims.  I remember thinking "wow, this thing is going to be way cooler than Air Warrior".

And then Air Warrior was canned.

Oh, and Sierra isn't so bad.  They're the group that published "Silent Hunter" and Papyrus' "NASCAR Racing" series.
