there's a pc demo version of it , its got great sound and its sort of cool but the FM is arcadish and the views are sort of behind the plane.

Depends on what you want it for. It's definately not a flight sim. My 4 yr old son and I enjoy it for what it is...a WW2 game with hokey storyline and the chance to blow things up without a lot of gory FPS type stuff...

I bought it for the PC,and regret it.Total port,FM is a joke,and no view system.Good game for the kids though.

Its a fun game, I sort of put it away once I got CMAK.

Its not meant to be a historic representation, its an action/adventure game where you fly for a top secret squadron and blast facists out of the sky. Graphics are cool, but it's no simulation. It's like Crimson Skies.

If your looking for a serious sim game, look somwhere else.
