So I bebopped down to Best Buy to pick up a copy of "The Treasure of Sierra Madre" and saw "F/A-18 Hornet: Operation Iraqi Freedom" for $20. I've played around with the earlier "Hornet" sims - "F/A-18 Hornet 3.0" and "Hornet: Korea" (blasting down the 747 over Hawaii with my nose cannon during the training mission was a hoot

) - and am looking for something quick and easy to do when not flying online.

Anybody try this one yet and care to comment? I found a review by Dan "Crash" Crenshaw that was pretty favorable but thought I'd ask the AH community what they thought about it.

Hornet Korea with updated graphics. Not worth of money IMHO.

Guess they were all out of F/A-18 Hornet: Operation Iraqi Liberation.

Well, I went ahead and picked it up today at lunch, since I had to stand in line to pay for my copies of the CNN documentaries about Sept 11 and the Iraq War anyway.

Watch a film, then blow up Iraqies, might make for a good way to spend a rainy afternoon.

They also had Baghdad Bob's (the Iraqi Information Minister) speeches on DVD for $8. I may go back for that later.
