Title: Secret Weapons over Normandy?
Post by: Weavling on November 07, 2004, 09:58:48 AM: I thought about picking it up. Looks kinda like it might be a fun game. I know it's not a "simulation," but sometimes arcadish games can be fun too.

Anyone have any opinions about this game, and/or suggestions of whether it'd be a good pick up or not?

Thanks!

I bought it for PC, and played for a little bit, the story is fun, But Gets old real quick.

Post by: Weavling on November 08, 2004, 06:46:59 PM: Heh, I'm steering away from this game. I tried the demo, and I was laughing almost the whole time. Lead indicators, health meters, auto aim? :lol

I was hoping it'd be kinda like Crimson Skies. Flight model not realistic, but was very fun. This game the flight model was even worse, and it was just laughable!

I guess it could be a fun game, but it was just a little too much for me. Maybe when it's $10, but definately not gonna pay $30 for it.
