How much is it? My friend said it's good, I'm gonna try the demo later.

It's only 800 pts

It seems to have 18 missions (not sure how long they are, the trial one is a joke), with online and local co op. Then 6 competitive modes with up to 16 players (trial was packed). Then there are 12 or so characters, at least as many planes, custom paintjobs and weapons, rank-ups, etc. Seems like the real deal.

It's MS published. Seems like they are trying to maintain the 800 point standard with enormous releases like this and PD at that price point.

And EWJ is 1200 :yuck

Not surprised at all.  It's got a lot of brand new content.

I thought the controls were too loose in my first attempt, but after 15 minutes of multiplayer I have gotten used to them. Definite buy if I can get  1 or 2 IRL friends to pick it up. Probable buy even if they won't.

This game is fantastic.  Graphics are great, controls are good, a full single player campaign, co-op missions, split-screen multi, there's a hell of a lot of game here for 10 spacebux.  Don't let the cute fool you, as an arcade flight combat game it's the real deal.  Buy it, I'm sure you'll shit away ten dollars on far worse things this Summer.

I tried the demo and I really liked it.

I have the full game now and it gets even better with the dozen+ weapons you have access to. Terrific game.

This could have been a full retail release with just a little fleshing out of the single player.  Maybe not a $60 game, but certainly a $30 title.

It looks like a pretty good game, and I think it's hilarious seeing the Peanuts gang decked out in World War 1 regalia.

I will buy this game if anyone confirms that you get to face-fuck Lex Luthor in it
