I did a google search and found a lot of player reviews but virtally none from mainstream media sources that do offical reviews of releases, I can't understand that, this game is as reaper said pure crack.

Perhaps its the fact that its been released once so to speak and then constantly updated?? Even something as jaw droppingly rubbish as IL2 bop is reviewed by 'big time' reviewers.

That you did

Used to play AW. Checked the demo out but didnt have the funding at the time to play. I was however pissed at AW because I felt that this was the game AW could have and should have been.
Eventually  came up with the extra funds (I think HTC changed its pricing too to the current format) And the machine to play. That was probably near 10 years ago and at least 3 computer builds ago.

The power of advertising and promotions. If you spend enough money on promoting and advertising it, you can take a dog turd, paint it red, and someone will pay you money for it.

I have no insight what-so-ever into HTC's marketing budget but I would guess it's a few decimal places to the left of where other software developer's budget dollars fall......

My point isn't that this guys youtube reviews get 100,000 + views per video he'd just need some free account bribery from Hitech and a bit of rear end kissing thats virtually for nothing  :)

But for some reason Aces High gets overlooked, Hitech should be picking up reviewers in his RV8!  :D  :airplane:
