I tried warbirds when I first tried AH, and subbed to AH...

However, my first Air combat sim was Flying circus...that game was so fun... :cry

Used to fly in Flying Circus too, flew under ack-ch.  The other tech guys at CH and I used to log in after work and have squad vs. squad fights with the other joystick company techs like Gravis and Logitech.  Too bad Flying Circus ended up folding the game did have a lot of potential, too bad SimGuild just couldn't keep it running.

Well, have no fear fellas, ole WildBil is packaging those seriously lacking fm's into a "Brand New" Warbirds - Dogfights...and marketing it through Gamestop at a low cost of course:

http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?product_id=76947

And you get 2 weeks of full multiplayer online trial for free when you buy the disc...or 30 days if you go through the website...  :headscratch:

That is just sad.  Did you read the comments?  I am willing to bet that all of them were posted by Wild Bill, but the sad part is the last comment which is from him.

This is a real flight simulator not an arcade game! It will take real skills and will actually teach a new player how to handle real life fighter aircraft!

I play WarBirds online and the the community there will help all new players get to be great aviators!

New players will get 30 days online play in the WarBirds MMO Free and Free Training with human Trainers!

Come join one of the Online Squadrons and experience Realistic Fighter Piloting!

Well, "Wizkid" (comment #1) is an actual person, not Wild Bill. He is an OLD ex-Luftwaffe fighter pilot, but from the post war Luftwaffe.

DOA was a blast when it debuted, as was WB during its heyday
