The music in this on is hard to take but the film footage is incredible.

Gotta check my makeup before I fly off into danger...underwear is clean (for now)...just need the makeup right.

What movie is that first clip from?

Post by: Wreked on July 20, 2009, 07:20:47 PM: Pretty sure it's not from Tora Tora Tora (seen it 2-3 times) but there's a new one out since that I haven't seen I think - If it is a remake it has outstanding detail/action scenes - can some one confirm this??

thanx eh!

The first video starts with Dark Blue World and the details say Pearl Harbor as well.

The second appears to be all Pearl Harbor based on flipping through the video looking at various spot checks for the footage.

Didn't appear to be anything from Tora Tora Tora or Midway or any other of those movies.

That said if you haven't seen it Dark Blue World is not time wasted.

Post by: Sincraft on July 20, 2009, 10:44:56 PM: honestly I'm surprised that this many years later since gaming really started and progressed seemingly so quickly, that we don't have something like this.

Kinda sad considering how fast things were moving for awhile.

I think software finally caught up to hardware, which is great for the devs (sorta) but bad for the consumer looking for that next gen of games that push the limits of hardware while carefully dancing the line of performance.

Not to mention that only the german planes exploded into itty bitty pieces while the few brit planes that went down. usually went down smoking before they crashed LOL
